On the way to Portland!

We are nearly ready to take off for Portland today!  The kids have been giving their marching orders, my mom has straightjacket's on stand by and we can't wait for 4 days of no bickering...amongst children that is!

The forecast calls for....RAIN in Portland, surprise, surprise.  We are planning on hiking the whole trail of Multnomah Falls since we'll have no one to tell us 'their wegs hurt'.  So perhaps we'll have views to add to these:

Well, except that there won't be any cute kiddos in the pictures! 

Thank you mom and dad!  We'll be home in a few days.....if you're lucky!
