Earlier this year Jessi and I attended an event put on by
Friends of the Family Ministries. Friends of the Family Ministries is a non-profit, non-denominational organization committed to building healthy relationships and healthy homes in the Mid-Willamette Valley of Oregon. They provide a variety of services including counseling, workshops and seminars teaching and coaching. It's a really cool organization.

During this event they had a silent auction where all the items were donated and the money went to support this organization. One of the items was a weekend trip to
Sunriver near Bend, Or. We bid on the item and ended up winning! It was very exciting. It was a 4 bedroom cabin with a hot tub, big-screen TV, kitchen, and plenty of couches. Here's a
video of Jessi giving a tour:

We invited another couple to join us. The entire weekend was one of relaxing and simply taking it very easy. I accomplished lots of reading, multiple naps and ate really well. We also went on walks, played some board games and watched a couple episodes of CSI (Jessi loves it). All and all, it was relaxing and it sounded like everyone had fun.

On the way home, Jessi and I decided to check out
Smith Rock State Park in
Terrebonne, OR. We hiked up to the top and then went back down the other side. Here's a
video of us at the top:
Lots of rock climbers come here to take on one of the many surfaces available. We saw at least a dozen people making their way up the rock. Here's a fun little
video of Jessi climbing down a rock:
Here are more pictures of the trip:
