A Wedding and a visit to Grandma's

Saturday was Bobbi's wedding in Rogue River. She and Ross looked great and put on a wonderful party at Bobbi's parent's house. It was nice to see friends from college at the wedding and to see Stacy/Erik, and Bobbi/Ross again before we take off.


Random moment: On our drive back from the wedding to our hotel we stopped for some rabbits that were crossing the road. Ben had what I thought was a crazy, insane, impossible idea of trying to catch/pet one...and then a second later he had one in his arms. It was so bizarre to be in the middle of nowhere at night, no one around and petting a bunny in the headlights of my car!
Anyway, we stayed in Medford the night of the wedding and then the next morning headed up to the coast to visit Grandma Jo! Ever since Ben and I stayed with Grandma last year we have been wanting to go back, and finally we had the chance to do it. It was so nice, we did a lot of relaxing and Grandma took us to Tidal Raves (yum yum) for lunch. We also looked at a bunch of pictures of Grandma's from her travels all over the world, it was really fun to see her adventures when we are about to begin our own. We also watched a documentary about how dogs became man's best friend. It was on the National Geographic Channel and it was called "And Man Created Dog." I would recommend it to any dog lovers, it is replaying this Friday (the 13th, ooh).
We've been doing a lot of preparations for our travels the past two days and are actually seeing a bit of real progress. The list is slowly shrinking (hmm..but so are the days). Ben got a new (to him) camera today that it far more complicated and higher quality that we have ever used. He has been experimenting and watching tutorials for at least 4 hours now! It's nice though, the pictures are better, which make the people in the picture look better;) Quality pictures coming soon........
