The trip up to Bend seemed long, only because we hit 3 different construction zones that were down to one lane with a pilot car. Stevi and I started by stopping and using a buy one get one free entree at Q'Doba then we hit the road for 4 hours and our next stretch stop was at Harold's Frosty Freeze in Alturas for an ice cream. We didn't need gas until we got to Klammoth Falls and as you can see, Stevi was the cutest bug washer in all of Oregon. When we finally arrived in Bend it was almost 9 so of course we could only visit for a few min
utes 
because it was bed time. Jack woke up in the morning, still a little shy but now he is all kisses and tickles. We opened his birthday presents first thing.....as an ice-breaker and he loved his semi-truck that Great Grandma Harrington got him and had fun putting his new 'Cars' cars in the compartments. 
Jack and Stevi are on the couch watching "Cars" as I figure out tonight's menu. All the Reese's are coming over to hang out and we will be having an ice-cream party making peanut butter ice-cream with a selection of toppings.....banana's, chocolate chips, fudge, whipped cream and nuts! Mmmmm I will be giving Grandma Tutu a call in a bit and see if she would like to go shopping with us, she has the other grandchildren at the Museum today so it will be an afternoon trip. Dinner is grilled Strip Steak with Scallions, sauteed asparagus with Gouda cheese shreds and roasted potatoes. Tutu will bring a salad and it will be a blast. Chrissi is such a sweetheart to allow us to crash in her house.....it's the least we can do. I will post more pictures later!

How exciting to see a blog post while you're in Bend! Thank you. I feel much better knowing that you and Stevi got there safe and sound. I'm so happy that Jack likes his semi!
