Sunriver Vacation


Michael's family planned a long weekend together in Sunriver. We went December 15th - 19th and stayed in a great house there. It was a very long trip over!! There had been a wind storm right before we left so several highways were closed for fallen trees and power poles, others were closed for snow. This first picture is traveling over Santiam Pass. We had to stop to defrost windshield wipers so that we could see out the windows. Once we got there it was all worth it.

We had a bedroom for each "family" of the Doty family which worked out really nice. We spent time just hanging out with eachother and playing games. We took an afternoon and took the kids sledding and cut down a Christmas tree to set up in the house. We had the perfect weekend for going because they had just received fresh snow so the ground surrounding the house was covered enough that we could just take the kids right outside to play in the snow.

We spent some time making ornaments for our tree we cut down. The girls made a paper chain with Mema, that went from the top all the way to the bottom of the tree.
