Memorial Day Visit to the Cemetary

This past memorial day we stopped by the cemetery in Salem where Jeremy's dad is buried.




Enchanted Forest

On memorial day we took Maeby to Enchanted Forest for the first time.

She liked the train ride

She LOVED the bumper boats

She liked the slide - ONLY so far as she didn't have to see the witch's face or look at anything witch-related.

She was skeptical of the characters she found but most of the time would be ok walking past them

She had fun overall and says she likes "that special park" even though mostly there was a lot of crying and NOT wanting to move for fear of everything she saw.


It was an interesting experiment in theme parks, but at least we now know what scares her and what she loves.

Wild Animal Safari

Several weeks ago we went to the Wildlife Safari down in Winston, OR. It was TOTALLY worth the drive!





You can drive through twice. The first time the Grizzly Bears were closed due to a "Teddy Bear Picnic" that day, but the second time we went through they were all playing and wrestling and it was the coolest thing ever to watch.



We decided to do the elephant encounter since Maeby LOVES elephants so much. It was awesome. We got to pet and feed one of the elephants and watch as it painted some pictures.





We can't wait until we go back again. It was so much fun.
