June was a busy month full of trips. My 2nd trip of the month and the family’s 1st trip of the month was to Washington for our nephew, Sean's, high school graduation.
It was a 10 hour car ride, but the kids did GREAT! No one cried, fought, or got bored. Cody was busy watching Yo Gabba Gabba on the DVD player and DJ was alternating between video games and watching TV and an occasional text to family members to let them now where he was.
We had not been back to Washington/Oregon in 4 years so it was nice to be back to see family.
Cody even introduced his Gabba friends to family members. He even got Grandma Neen (Papa Richard’s sister) to play with him.
Aside from playing with his cousins, DJ’s favorite part of the trip was getting to hang out with this girl…
Her name is Bella. I called her Bella Ballerina and DJ referred to her as “dog piggy”. He soon dropped that name and started calling her Bellerina. =)
The 3rd night there, we went to Sean’s graduation. Uncle Robert helped keep Cody busy before the ceremony by walking back and forth down the aisle with him. Cody LOVED that. He really enjoyed spending time with his Uncle Robert and Aunt Michelle.
CONGRATULATIONS SEAN!!!!
The graduate…
Each evening we enjoyed a fire at the fire pit. The boys thought it was the coolest thing. =) Surprisingly, they didn’t even try to touch it! =)
Cousin Jack served as our Fire Pit mastered and lit the fire up for some smores!

The last stop before heading home was to Pine State Biscuits in Portland. Doyle had seen it on one of our favorite shows, Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, so we had to check it out.
It was DE-LICIOUS! Their Reggie is the best. If you are in Portland be sure to check them out!
