Oregon Part 2

We got up Tuesday and just hung around the house waiting for Mike to arrive. The kids were set up great with the big circle driveway and their bikes and scooters. Dan brought a great bubble maker kit which the adults had so much fun doing. Blackberries and huckleberries were growing on the property, so we picked those. And took the kids on rides in the wagon that was there. We were perfectly content with being at the house.

Dan teaching us how to make HUGE bubbles


Nate was just happy being outside and exploring


The kids finally got some turns making bubbles ;-)


One of the many darling nephews, Matthew


Brian I think got the longest bubble award


Picking berries


Emily, Megan, Annie, Leah and Molly in the hand cart


While some were playing Bocce ball, they found a snake. Who is the daughter of mine? Much braver than I am! Yes, it was a tiny snake!!


Foster, Matthew, James, and Luke. I love Matthew's UmiZoomi goggles


David, "The Thinker"........poor David was having a bad headache. He still is a trooper because he'd be playing with the kids one minute then sitting like this the next!



After Mike arrived, we headed to the beach close by just to walk around. We had perfect Oregon Coast weather! Overcast in the mornings, some clouds and wind in the afternoons, but then blue skies occasionally!

Cute niece Leah. 


It was a little chilly walking on the beach, as you can tell by all the jackets! But still fun to explore


Cute, cold explorers

So fun! I love Matt's goggles too. I can't believe Molly and those girls with that snake. Yuck.
