The Last Hurrah

Our last day together was fun. Post photos, we headed out for another bike ride, the grown-ups took a quick trip to Bend and general fun was had by all.

Bike rides are fun at Sunriver.

Bike riding crew.

Kids test out this big bike.

Kids enjoying being lazy.

How about a beer tasting at Deschutes Brewery. Nate was excited.

Bend has its own natural waterslide.

We didn't try it, but it looks fun!

Deer butts.

Pedestrian and deer crossing.

Time to shake martinis.

And pour them.

Cheers to an amazing trip!

Our last dinner before we all head off. What a great trip.

Lulu wanted to get some pics of all the family while we were together, so a photographer came and we all got some nice family shots.
