Neptune, Devil's churn, Heceta Head, Sand dunes, and Cape Kiwanda

We woke up really early (4:45) to make it to Neptune for low tide. Unfortunately, the tide was not as low as it said it was going to be so some people had to do some major climbing over rocks! We were able to still see sea life and hold starfish and we had lots of fun chasing the waves! Let's just say Dad and MyKelle may have lost to some of those waves!







She is so curious about the starfish!


Such a brave girl to touch them!





She wanted to eat it!


Look at Carson's face! Gotta love it!





Gage and Darin! What a great picture of them!



Seriously! What a beautiful picture! This is why I love the coast!

While we were already sandy and wet we decided it would be nice to go to Devil's Churn! My dad since he is a chicken stayed up in the parking lot with Hailey and Brinley. The rest of us took on the Devil it self, but Travis wanted to play a little too close with the Devil! (He is crazy!)







Oh yea... Cambree still loves her Daddy very much!


So green... so beautiful





I attempted to climb a tree, needless to say I didn't have much luck!


Next stop Heceta Head Lighthouse! So pretty!


Adam took this DP of Jeremy and I! LOVE IT!


Already sandy and wet? Okay let's go get more sandy by going to the sand dunes! Jo-jo, Poppy, Darin, and Katie went on this big truck with all the kiddo's and Jeremy, Adam, Travis, Natalie and I went on a little one and had a blast! We have done this like 4 or 5 times and this was hands down the best ride yet! I think all of us had multiple sandgasms!


The next day we had a relaxing day driving up the coast to our next hut. We had to stop at Cape Kiwanda and ate of course at Tillamook!


I love my cute little family!

Oregon Day 4 and 5

We stayed the 1st 4 nights at Depoe bay! Our timeshare was right on a cliff overlooking the ocean! We could hear the waves crashing all day and night, we could see the fishing boats and whale watching boats, and we saw tons of sea lions swimming and sun bathing on the rocks!

Travis loves kite's! This year he brought his and Addi's. Everybody had fun taking turns flying the kite's and Travis was so proud when he achieved the Chinese star trick!


We headed to the beach for some fun in the sand!



Cute family photo!


Everyone was so hooked on building this big, sand, uhh... mound? Crazy boys!



Cute Carson!

Sweet Addi and Travis showing off the castle.


What a beautiful family to match the beautiful Oregon Coast!



Precious!!

The science center!

Everyone looking at the tide pools


Cambree touched all the stuff in the pools and laughed after! What a brave little girl!


If you touched this creature it would squeeze your finger! It was awesome to see all living creatures.


Cambree loved to watch the fishes swim, but when they would comes towards her she would pull her hand away and giggle!


Cambree exploring one of the pools!


Carson out ate everyone! What a cutie!


This is the view from our room!

Oregon 2011 Day 1 - 3

We had such a great time in Oregon this year! I also took a TON of photos so I have to post day by day! The first day we met everyone at Katie's and had pizza! We headed to Boise the first day! I loved having my camera and my new lens with me!

The babies rode like this the entire time! There were a great time and such good little riders!

The next day we drove to Portland, but of course we had to stop of at the fish hatchery!
How cute is Carson? so cute!


Gage and Addi were so cute this trip! They would hold hands everywhere we went!




Jo-Jo and poppy with the grandkids feeding the fish!

Then our next stop just down the street is multanomah falls! So Pretty!

Cambree thinks it is really cool too!


Carson and Cambree sitting on a bench!

The 5 oldest grand children


We hiked up to the bridge and took family photos!

The next day we packed up in Portland and headed out to the coast! Our 1st stop before we left was VooDoo doughnuts! I love those things! The maple bacon bar is to die for! I didn't have my camera so you will have to refer to Adam's blog or facebook for that!


Carson entertained everyone by pushing all the kiddo's around on the luggage rack! he is pushing this up hill! He is super strong!



Cambree's first pig-tails!



my baby looks like a little toddler now! Sad face!


Of course before we got to the coast we had to stop at TILLAMOOK CHEESE FACTORY! Best place in the world!



Cambree and I posed as farmer and cow!

The baby loaf car!



Cambree is a big fan of Tillamook ice cream!


This is a perfect DP (desk photo!) My dad is really in heaven!

Cambree loved to walk around outside and should would just walk up to random strangers and wave to them! She loves everyone so much!

All the fun she had made her so sleepy!

We had a great first 3 days! stay tuned for more posts!
