Ryan Kramer Visiting!

Hi all! 

Will you please forgive me for not writing nearly as often as I was? I honestly think that this has been the busiest we have ever been here in Oregon. For the first time all of our free time had to be put towards homework. Needless to say, having Ryan here has been quite a treat. We haven't been out to dinner this often since we first moved here. Ryan arrived mid afternoon on friday. Unfortunately he had to watch us paint for the first couple hours because we were that far behind on our painting homework. Anyway, we made up for the boring afternoon by going out to The Horse Brass Pub and even better, VooDoo Doughnuts for dessert!!!! We had some seriously amazing conversations this night. Saturday morning Ryan took the day to visit his family here while Wes and I were bombarded with even more huge painting projects to complete as the term comes to a close (we only have 3 weeks left of school)! Saturday night we took Ryan to The Kennedy School, one of the 21 and over movie theaters here. Enjoyed the movie "Righteous Kill" as we sat on some couches and had pizza, Root Beer and Beer served to us. (Seriously, come to Portland just for this... so much fun!) Today we took Ryan to our church and then to the grocery store (haha). Unfortunately Wes had to go to work today so Ryan and I are spending the day at Palios together. UNTIL! We pick wes up tonight and go to an amazing looking seafood restaurant (by Ryan's request) called Bay 13. We will let you know how it turns out. After we are coming home to watch a movie and snack on Oreo's. We love having friends. :) 

Ryan leaves on Tuesday, which is also Wes' Birthday. (22 ahhhhh![Amity's too actually]) Then, Thanksgiving thursday! So I don't expect next week to slow down too much either but hopefully it won't be too long before I post another blog. Love you all...
