We had such a great time! When we got down to Eugene, Dad and Jenesa weren't there (Dad wasn't feeling well and Jenesa could only come down for a couple hours so she decided to stay north) we totally missed them :( While we stayed in Eugene Ben helped Grandma get some areas of her house updated. He was working hard for most of our vacation.
We left Eugene on Sat. for Medford. Ben and I were blessed to be kid-less both Sat. and Sun. nights! Thanks Dad and Mom! The hotel we stayed at we reserved sight unseen (it was SUPER cheep). It was a little outdated and needed a few minor repairs (tub had no stopper), but the kid pool was great for our kids and they offered a huge, full, hot breakfast. All in all it was a good hotel.
Funny thing happened. On our way to Eugene the kids were restless and excited and I was out of ideas to help pass time. Ben, on the other hand, started a new game. We went through the alphabet and had to match the letter with a color that started with the same letter; example a=amber. This gets challenging when you come upon a letter that you can't match! So, we get to the letter 'h' and we're stumped. Then Essy excitedly says "Hot red banana!" Ben and I cannot contain ourselves and we start laughing hard. She loves it and dubs the game Hot Red Banana.
There were no more exciting and memorable stories of getting lost in Medford, I'm afraid. We had a great time with family and hope you did too!

Essy is so creative. Love it! What an awesome game too. I will remember that one in a few years.
