The Coombs Family

We came back to Sunriver with the Bingham's again for Thanksgiving weekend. This year we even convinced the Olsen's to join us. We got a sick house that fit us all perfectly. The weather was cold but sunny so we went for walks every day. It was too cold for bike rides. We did the typical Sunriver activities including eating a ton of food, playing games, and watching football all day. The kids went to K1 racing and raced go karts, which is a new favorite activity. Even Shelby loves it and it's hard to find activities she wants to do with us like that. I think we will definitely keep coming back each year as long as we can.

 My friend Kacey had to work a soccer clinic in Hawaii and she took me along as her plus one. She went to the fields every day and I got to go site seeing and relax. I went hiking, snorkeling, bike riding, spent time on the beach, did some shopping, read a book, and loved it. It was so fun traveling essentially along during the day. It reminded me of all the work traveling I used to do. In the evenings we got together for dinner, beach time and some shopping. I am pretty sure I want to travel with her to all her camps now and just be a plus one.

This Christmas we surprised the kids with a trip down to California and stayed in Laguna Beach. We went with Rhoda's family and left on Monday, Ronin's birthday. The trip started off a little crazy. We had snow here for Christmas and it made the airport crazy and half our flights were cancelled. Trevor and Cassidy had a flight change and they had to get to the airport around 5 am, so they were awake around 3 am. After sitting in the airport all day their flight was cancelled and not rescheduled, so they headed back to my house. Caleb, Calvin and Ronin's flights were cancelled also, but before they had to leave to the airport. Rhoda, Brynlee, Kenady, Shelby and my flights were actually on time and left as they were suppose to. So we rented a car, Cassidy and Trevor drove with my boys all night and got to California around 6 am the next morning. Apparently the rental car was squished and nobody really loved the drive down there, but they did have a memorable trip for sure. I
