The Jurgens Family

Oregon State Fair 2010

On Monday August 30th was Kid's Day at the State Fair. So our family went with Chris' brother and his family. The kids had a blast. I think the biggest thrill of the day was for Jayna. She is now tall enough to ride a few of the "Adult/Big kid" rides and boy did she. She got to ride the Dragon Boat (2times), and the Octopus. She had such a blast. She also rode rides with Alec that he could ride. But he was finally tall enough to ride the Go Karts with mommy this year. Next year I am sure that they both will be able to ride the BIG rides with out any problems...now that's scary.

Family Vaction Part 3

August 19-21 we went camping on our way home at Lost Lake. Everyone sees it on the way over the pass before going up the hill to Sisters. Its about 30mins West of Sisters and about 1.5hours from here. We had a wonderful time. The kids got to fish, and catch frogs and just run and play. Its a great place to camp. We are thinking about planning another trip next year!

One of the really cool things the kids got to see, is a training helicopter with the water bucket come both mornings and get water out of the lake. It was really cool to watch.

Kaneeta Part 2:

So while we were are Kaneeta we had a chance to attend a Tradtional Indian Salmon Bake.

After Dinner we got to watch several traditional Indian dances and the history behind each dance. The kids loved this so much. Their eyes never left the dancers:
