Conger Family Reunion–Sunriver, Oregon

We feel quite spoiled.  Every summer we get a great summer trip with Grandma and Grandpa, cousins and aunts and uncles.  Sunriver is a really fun place.  It is on the eastern side of Oregon, so it is quite dry and beautiful.  It is a little resort town in the mountain tops with lots of fun outdoor activities that we love.

We usually have a bike ride along the trails several times a day.

The hike to Benham Falls is always a winner.  The pictures don’t do it justice.

Grandma and Grandpa joined us for a hike to the Cinder Cone monument.  It is pretty cool to hike right  on a volcanic rock path.  The lava tube cave was tons of fun too.

Eeeek! It’s Friday the 13th!

Well, Brittney’s birthday is August 13th and she was actually born on a FRIDAY.  She has been our lucky charm, so all superstitions are out.  However, about 3 1/2 years ago Brittney started planning her big FRIDAY the 13th day and all the details came to pass.  She celebrated her 11th birthday in style.  We had a broken mirror, a ladder to walk under, a black cat and other “superstitious” themes.  They watched Disney’s “Watcher in the Woods” and we had some loud screams, but it was truly a blast.

She has also been waiting a LONG time to be 11, so she could have an ipod.  Life is goodSmile.
