Oregon Coast

Family Vacation :)

June 20th, 2014 everyone headed to the beach house :) My parents spoils us and paid for the whole house and food :) We only had to find our way there and pay for some food. Everyone was there :) Desiree's family, Brooklyn and her husband Caleb, my mom & dad, Alyssa & Brayden and Joey & our family. It was so great to have everyone together!!

The drive wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it was definitely more difficult with Alleah being potty trained but still has a tiny bladder so needing to stop for her to go potty. & Raylee being breast fed and needing to eat. Alleah had NO accidents on the way there. We stopped 3 times (7 hour trip) By the time we were 30 miles from the beach house I was like "GET ME OUT OF THIS CAR!" haha! but it could've been worst. I was debating putting Alleah in a pull up but I said "no" to that since she was already potty trained... I was not turning back! Joey and I stopped in Lincoln city on the way there and I shopped at the carters store :) we were gonna go shopping in Portland but the traffic was INSANE!

We got there at around 8pm that night. Everyone just caught up and hung out. Justin (desiree's husband) and Caleb decided to go in the ocean that night with their wet suits so I brought Alleah down to the beach to show her. She went crazy with excitement. She was running around soooo much! we just laughed because of how she was running so quick and just laughing with excitement. She would run up to the ocean and run back when the wave came in.

The next day we went on the beach. It was just a very relaxing day. Everyone did their own thing on the beach. It was kind of cold for the babies so Desiree & I ended up going inside with them. One of the days we did take family pictures. I haven't gotten them yet to post but they turned out great from what I saw. Our family grew by 4 family members in the last 3 years :) every night was yummy dinners :) BBQ chicken, steak, hamburger, tin foil dinners, and salmon.

One of the days Desiree, Justin, Caleb, Joey, Brooklyn, mom & me put on wet suits and headed in the ocean. If it werent for the suits I doubt most of us would've gone in. We had a blast on boogie boards and just jumping and playing in the ocean :)

One day we went to newport and went to the shops and looked around. My dad bought yummy salmon and I bought my crab :) BEST $20 spent. It was DELICIOUS!! soooo buttery goodness. I love seafood.

The last day was beautiful out! So warm. We spent that day on the beach playing. Some of us (Joey, Caleb, brooklyn, mom, Alyssa, Justin) put on the wet suits and went in again. Desiree and I sat on the beach with our babies and watched. and Grandpa was playing in the water with Alleah.

The boys had a fun time building sand castles, they were pretty pro at it.

Me & my dad had a mishap with our trucks :( and will be needing to get them fixed, but glad nobody got hurt :)
The trip was sooo much fun! and can't wait to do something similar in the year 2016!!
