Brooks signed up to take the MPRE (a portion of the bar exam) in Portland since they didn't offer it in Spokane. The test was at the beginning of his Spring Break, so we headed to Portland and stayed with my cousin, Amanda, and her family in Camas, WA. We have talked about going to visit them for a while now and I am glad we finally made the trip. Her boys are 6 and 4 years old and introduced Landon and Elliot to the world of "big boy" toys and activities while we were there. They learned about scooters, bikes, Nerf guns, pencils and doing flips off the bed. It was a lot of fun to watch Brody and Ashton interact with the boys. We ate great food, had great company and enjoyed getting away for a few days.
They took us to the Omsi Science Museum and the kids got to explore all the amazing displays. Our children's museum in Spokane dwarfs in size compared to this place, but they had a few of the same exhibits and the boys were drawn to the familiar items.
On the way home, we took the Columbia River Scenic highway and stopped to see 3 amazing waterfalls along the way. We were excited to finally be getting out with the boys again after a long winter.
