I'm not saying that I don't like Maryland. In fact I'm totally digging the sunny weather right now but lately I have been reminded of how much I love Oregon. Here are three of the many reasons why:
1. Kicker Law. When income tax revenue exceeds estimates by more than 2% the excess is returned. The socialist part of me feels this this extra should be used for some under-funded public service, but the rest of me was pretty excited to unexpectedly get a check in the mail last week.
2. Christmas Tree Farms. They are everywhere in Oregon and it is so fun to pick out your tree and cut it down. We had sticker shock when we went to a lot in DC to get a tree this year.
3. Oregon Coast. I miss the ocean. I think we will have to do some exploring here and find a beach with crashing waves.
Anyway, here's another picture of Cadie.

Oregon loves you too!!!
Look how much Cadie has grown! She looks so much bigger! We need to get together. And anytime you're up for a beach trip just let us know - we LOVE the beach. It's only about 3 hours away.
Cadie is looking so big! Ditto to what Kara said!
adorable.
Cutie Cadie! I'm in Oregon right now and share the love with you!! Wish you guys were here...
Cadie looks great! We just got our check too--a GREAT Christmas present!
Merry Christmas to you all!
