Fun days in Oregon

Shawn and I pulled into our home at around 2:30 am on a very rainy Monday morning. We had just had another amazing trip to Oregon, but we were happy to be home. Blake, Savannah, Jared, Amy, Shawn, and I all came back home for a few days to celebrate Blake and Savannah's Oregon Wedding Reception. We were also joined by all of our aunts, uncles, cousins, and all of the Woodley cousins too. We had such a fun time and the weather was perfect. We brought along, Melissa Weed, one of my mission companions and favorite friends in the world. I have added some random pictures of our fun trip home. We love going home, and will not be back until Christmas, so sad. But we love every oppurtunity we have to spend time with our family.
Here is Shawn wakeboarding, his first time boarding was in July when we went out for the Fourth of July, he went out again this trip and is doing so good and loves it! Here is Melissa Weed and I on the boat.

And here is Shawn right after he got out of the water. We drove out to the beach to spend a day with our grandparents and to take Melissa out to the beautiful Oregon Coast. It was such a clear and warm day. Even though it does not show it in this picture, Shawn really did have a good time.

Here is a picture of Savannah, right before the reception. The night was nice, it was fun to see lots of our family and freinds and Savannah looked beautiful.
Here is a cousin picture, my Grandma Nelson wanted to get a picture of almost all of the Nelson cousins that were together for the wedding. We were missing a few but it was so fun to have everyone together. It is crazy to see that our oldest cousin, Kjerstin is in her 30's and the youngest is baby Charlie, and he is just 2 months old.
While we were in Oregon, my youngest brother, Kyle had his first varsity footabll game. He got to start both ways and did awsome even though he was nervous to have all of us there to watch his first game.
And we stopped by the Beautiful Portland Temple on our way out and on to Utah, we are so blessed to have such an amazing Temple so close by!

Again our Oregon trip was perfect and full of lots of fun memories. We always want to thank mom and dad and Kyle for taking such good care of us when we come visit. We cant wait to see you all soon....(hopefully for October Conference)
