With past experiences this summer we knew our kids would probably not do the greatest with a road trip. We ended up flying while everyone else caravan to Oregon. We were able to do some many fun things on the trip.
All of the family went to the tide pools to check out the different things that are swept up in the water. The kids were able to find a ton of crabs and in fact were convinced they were going to take them home. After the tide pools we went and walked through a lighthouse. The picture below is all the kids pestering the poor worker. They were teasing him that he was Joe Jonas and asked several times for his autograph. Let's just say I am sure he was way glad when we left.
This is a picture of the whole family on the trip. The only ones missing were Josh, Jentry and Brett. The kids had so much fun hanging out with their cousins.
After the tide pools we went down town to see some sea otters as well as visit an aquarium. There was so pretty neat things to see. The kids favorite was the one eyed fish. It was a bit creepy.
We spent lots of time on the beach playing in the water (as much as we could stand the cold), building castles and having bon fires. It was a great trip and one we will always remember.
