Mother's Day Weekend

We spent a wonderful Mother’s Day weekend down in Medford this year. It’s been nine months since we’ve been home and a visit was overdue.
Friday we spent the day with my side of the family and went to lunch at Deli Down (my favorite lunch café in Medford). They have the best tomato soup. At lunch I learned that a NEW South Medford High School was built and the high school that I attended would no longer be the high school for south Medford- it was a bit sad to think about. So we took a drive around town to see the new high school and other new things that have popped up. It seems like each time we visit Medford, I feel like more and more is changing about it!
Friday night we had Abby’s Pizza for dinner (it’s a tradition for Travis and me to always have that when we visit home- it’s our favorite pizza!) and went and saw Iron Man 2.

I think what was most exciting about Friday is that my best friend from high school, Lindsey was in town. She came over Friday morning for a long visit with us, and she had in tow her two adorable kiddies- Taylor and Gavin and a little one in her tummy. Of course, I obviously gravitate towards little Taylor and play with her- she was the cutest thing. The entire time she kept calling me by three names, every time she wanted to talk to me she would say “Taylor Casey Fetrow”- it was the cutest. I got it on video and I’ll post that tomorrow.



Saturday, Brad got up early to play golf with his dad. We spent the afternoon with Brad’s parents and Grammie. Another fun treat was that our 2 month old nephew Caleb hung out with just us for the entire afternoon. It was so fun to see him and get to spend time with him. Babies change so much in just that short amount of time. We would constantly make funny noises and do little dances, just to make him smile! We decided to go down to Eagle Point street festival, mind you, this is a small, smallllllll town and it made for great people watching. It seemed like most of the time we would place Caleb on a tractor or a little horse and just take pictures of him. But I think Brad had the most fun, getting to carry Caleb in a little baby carrier.






Sunday we decided to go out to breakfast to celebrate mother’s day with my family. It was quite the adventure, but what made it memorable was the fact that the waitress handed my mom a red rose and spilled hot coffee on her lap all at the same time. I think, nothing says Happy Mother’s Day better than taking your mom to breakfast, having it turn into a disaster right before she needs to go to work! We then spent the rest of the day with Brad’s entire family, played croquet and had a great early dinner!
We hit the road and got home with just enough time to wash the sheets to snuggle into bed with!










Happy Mother’s Day to both our mom’s who we love very much and are thankful for! Also, Happy Mother’s Day to G’ma and Grammie!

Love,
Brad and Tay
