Recap: Shannon and Leyton's Oregon Vaca

We were so blessed to have Shannon and Leyton come stay with us for a week. It was especially sweet to meet little Miss Leyton and introduce McKinley to her new cousin.  Overall, we had a relaxing week.  We did, however, manage to eat dinner during PF Chang's happy hour.  Leyton slept during the entire meal, while McKinley devoured crispy green beans.  We also made a couple trips to Champoeg State Park, one for Shannon's ten mile run, and another for a walk with my Aunt Kathy, who's surprise visit was an added bonus. We are ecstatic to report that Ryan and Shannon will call San Diego home in the near future. So, we are already planning another trip to Southern California to welcome Ryan back from Africa.
