Coast Fun

Here's a few shots from the fun we had last weekend. We got to see some of our long lost family from the North. We're so lucky they made a band trip to Oregon and we got to see them at the beach! It was sooooo much fun. We love having big cousins around for our kids and they love it too. We went to a few different beaches, a couple state parks (our pass earlier this year we were unsure about buying, paid off - YES!), Fort Stevens, Tillamook and everywhere in between.

We learned that Jack loves to fly kites and run in the waves but hates getting cold. Kate loves collecting shells but hates having to leave the beach. Lily loves to eat sand but hates being dipped in the ocean to clean off before the ride home!

Great photos!!! Looks like a really exciting trip. Kate and Jack and Lily are so cute!!! Crazy that Lily is already walking! She's getting so big. Hope she has a Happy Birthday this week and we'll have to send a little card with the Orr's when they come to see you!

Looks like it was a great time! That top photo of your family with the beach in the background reminded me of the first shot of the beach in Twilight.

I can't believe Lily is getting so big. Also, Kate seems to become a giant when she is buried in sand.

I'm so glad you found out blog. Got me inspired to search out your and catch up. I love you last entry on Jack. One of a kind! We would LOVE to see you guys if you're passing through. We won't get there until the 17th or just before that. Also, forgot the Anderson's were there. That's good news. Let's hook up if you can. karenwallis13@gmail.com

So many fun pics!! It looks like you had a great time. I can't believe how big your kids are now, especially Lily! It's crazy to me that she's old enough to walk and be a toddler! (It really has been way too long since we've seen you and your adorable fam!) I've been thinking about you guys a lot lately and I hope everything is going well for you. Give the kids a hug from all of us!
