More pics of Portland

This is overlooking the city of Portland. OHSU is located on a hill that overlooks the city.
Dad at the temple grounds . Isn't he just so cute....sure do love him.
Beautiful flowers are growing everywhere. These are by thier front door.
The tulips at the temple were georgous. Maybe I'll do another painting of a tulip.

Our moving trip to Oregon

Taran and Michelle's going away BBQ. The kids had fun except for poopy Bryson. Grandpa had to hose him off before he could have a bath. No pics, aren't you glad!!!!
The big move. Off to Portland Taran and Michelle go. They are in front of their new home.
We enjoyed the drive up with them. It was beautiful.
This is the PA building at OHSU. Very quaint don't you think? The new building is downtown but Taran will only be in it a few months before he finishes.
This is another part of the campus. There are 5 hospitals on campus.
The beautiful Portland temple is only about 10 minutes away from their apartment.

Enjoying Spring

Addie the strawberries are ready to pick . I hope there will still be some when you get here.
Mason's baptism was so special. We are so proud of him. He has added his name to the CTR picture in the family room.
Another red letter day for Taran and Michelle. Their graduation from SUU. What an accomplishment!!!!!

April Fun at the Hansen's

Playing marshmallow guns with Grandpa was a big hit with Bryson. He could actually make the mallows come out! Course his favorite thing was eating them.
Grandpa invited Mason and Easton over for an afternoon of playing Heman during Easter break.
Now that was fun to watch, all the sounds that were made cracked me up. I had to stay in the other room so they couldn't hear me laugh. Some kids never grow up if you know what I mean.
It's a little late to be showing off the eggs done with silk ties, but here they are just for you Jamie.
It was fun trying something new!!!!!
This one was done with a polka dot tie.
And here's all "6" eggs that we colored for Easter. April is going fast and we have a couple more busy weeks ahead. The Fitness Festival 10K and 5K , Mason's baptism, and lots of birthdays, not to mention Taran and Michelle's graduation..........watch for more in May!!!!!

Glowing "pots of Gold" are hidden in strange places all over the back yard.
This is a crazy tradition to celebrate St.Patricks Day. Hailey said it is her favorite
holiday next to Christmas. Easton had to make a calendar to count down the days
until the "GREEN PARTY". We all had a fun, fun time.
