Carson turned a year old on March 20th. We celebrated his first birthday with Jennifer's family in February in West Virginia and with John's family in Oregon on March 20th!
In June we visited Jennifer's family in West Virginia which included a trip to the Pittsburgh Zoo and Prickett's Fort.
Mark & Amy Stamper's Wedding was on July 11th in Chattanooga Tennessee! John was a groomsman in the wedding.
We went whitewater rafting on the Deschutes River for Jennifer's Birthday on August 5th.
Also in August, John hiked to the top of Mt. Batchelor just outside of Bend (with views of the Sisters, Mt. Washington, and Brokentop in the background).
On August 19th, we visited Crater Lake National Park (the deepest and purest lake in the U.S, also seen on our state quarter).
