Sunday morning we woke up and pulled our sore, tired bodies out of bed to head into Redmond and go to church. We attended the same building that I went to as a child. It's a cute little building and many of the old-timers are still there. My 6th grade teacher still attends there and was very surprised to see us. It was fun to see people from my childhood and I think we made it out without making too many interruptions to their quiet, little meeting. Isaiah did poke Savannah in the eye with the keys and she made it known quite well that it hurt....a lot.
We went back to the house and began the process of loading everything back up in the van and cleaning up the place a bit. We went over to Cline Falls and ate our sandwich's for lunch and then headed over Mt. Hood to go home. All the way through Redmond, Terrebonne, Madras and Warm Springs, I was pointing out old memories and telling the kids things from when I was a child there. Levi asked at one point if I was going to tell stories the whole way home.......I might Levi, I just might I told him.
Central Oregon held a lot of great memories from my childhood. Many of those memories came from doing things with my grandparents. I didn't have a perfect childhood but we definitely put the "fun" in dysfunctional!! Ha ha ha.........
Anyway, then we came home and lived happily ever after! Ok, really we came home, unloaded and I started laundry that took me until last night to catch up on! But it was worth it! Five days worth of memories.....priceless.
