And finally our pics from last weekends Seattle trip. The trip included trying to catch salmon as they swam up river in just a few inches of water. Game night with the Millers along with an auction put together by Alexandra and Madison. A late night fire by the lake. A disappointing loss to Oregon...but a great trip through Portland. ( haven't been there since 1994 when I was a missionary.) A LONG drive back from Eugene to Seattle....a 2 lane freeway with stop and go traffic is lame! We had yummO food and fun visiting with everyone...and bonus...Grandma Billie!

The auction around the fire.

Grandma Billie got a chocolate Easter bunny....lol!

The game night turned into a dance off.

You go Rick!

Nice pointed toes yaya!

Now for the pics of trying to catch Salmon. The salmon actually were in full force a couple weeks ago. We were very lucky to see a few stragglers. You can tell the depth of the river was really shallow by looking at Alexandra's boots. Kids don't need a fishing license, so they were our only chance. We really wanted to eat Fresh salmon for dinner. However look through the pics...Alexandra was okay with 1 or 2 fish swimming by...when 5-8 fish swam by she freaked out!!!!

here are a few swimming up stream

getting ready

amazing

scary stuff!

watching the salmon swim by

Elyssa was trying to help ...but still no luck catching one.

Then there was the Utah Oregon game. There was a constant mist of rain that drenched you in minutes. It wasn't cold...just annoying. Then to add a loss to our perfect record was a little sad.

Manny Hendricks....we sat on the same row. Sorry Manny....not the best pic of you!

Come on Utes!

Posing and smiles in the airport waiting to go to Seattle...we actually got to see the Utes take off just a few minutes before we did. The Utes charter a Jetblue plane...wish we could have hitched a ride with them.

Hey scott put down the DS and smile!
