Finally, some more pictures...

On the way to Crater Lake Isabella couldn't take one more minute in the car so we pulled over. Luckily, there was a short hike there so we hiked to this waterfall and ate lunch there. It was pretty cool.
Uncle Grant fed Isabella a little too much and this was the result... just kidding. Although the reality of what some times happens isn't too far from this picture. ;)
Isabella with Aunt Kellie, Grandpa Jerry and Uncle Grant on her first trip to Crater Lake.
We hiked all the way down to the lake. It was really neat (we've never done that before). Grant and Dusty went for a swim in the very cold water. Kellie, Anna and I got in the water, but only up to our ankles.
Isabella taking a nap in Grandpa Jerry's bed at the house in Grants Pass. Notice the satin sheets, pillow case and comforter. Very sassy. She kept sliding off the pillow.

Grant in the kitchen of the house in Brookings Oregon. Notice how we made a mess of the place as quickly as we could.

Daddy showing Isabella the view (...of the fog) from the living room. Once the fog burned off the view of the beaches was awesome.

This was horse that I got to ride. His name was Cajun and I don't think he was too excited to have me riding him.



We had a great ride through the dunes and down the beach. Since Anna was a first time rider we could only walk with the horses, but it was still fun.

One of the things that Cajun loved to do was fall way behind everyone else. He just like to take his own sweet time to get where we were going. A couple of times he cantered to catch up and that was pretty fun.

Isabella and her cousin Lily taking a nap, getting ready for the long car ride home. Lily is only 20 days older than Isabella.

If you know Kellie you know she loves her puzles. This is the one she completed (with very little help) during our time at the Brookings house.

On the way home we stopped and ate lunch at the Samoa Cook House and then we went to this ship. It's a replica of Christopher Colimbus' ship the Nina. It was a lot smaller than I expected. There were only about 15 people on board and it was crowded. Columbus had over 100 people on it at one point. I can't even believe what that would have been like.

Isabella and Lily on the morning that they were leaving to head home. These girls might not know it, but they had a lot of fun hanging out on our vacation.
