Last Week

Once again this year we went to Cannon Beach for the week of the 4th of July.  We had so much fun spending time with family, celebrating my birthday, and playing on the beach (Becca's favorite). 

Rebecca loved the beach so much. She asked about it before going to bed, first thing in the morning, and throughout the day. It was pretty much all she talked about. We gave her five minute warnings when it was time to go back inside the house but it didn't help. Whenever it was time to leave we had to drag her home kicking and screaming.

Here is Caleb and two of his brothers enjoying an evening on the beach.

Once again we participated in the Cannon Beach fourth of July parade.  We were dressed as cooks and chefs to celebrate our tradition of having a cooking competition between the family at Cannon Beach.

We also celebrated my birthday. I turned 29 this year. This birthday totally snuck up on me. I feel old.

The kids had their traditional treasure hunt on the beach.  It was really fun watching this sweet group of cousins look for their treasure.

Here they are counting steps to their next clue.

This was the view outside our window on our last day of vacation. Just gorgeous!

One last pick of Becca playing with a little ball on the beach.
