Beach and family, doesn't get much better

My cousin, Tasha, and her family live in Boise and drove over to visit the Oregon coast and us :) We were thrilled to spend time with them, Payton and Bria are just a few months apart and are so sweet together.

Aspen and Reese, adorable babies!!

We did the Evergreen Waterpark on Saturday and then Sunday we did the outlets (back to school shopping, wahoo!) and the beach.

 We walked down Depoe Bay and had a bite to eat at a little local dive.

Saturday night after the kids went to bed we thoroughly enjoyed adult conversations until way too late. We knew we were tired when the conversation drifted to nose hair, so we decided to call it a night at that point.

 The 3 older kids (CJ, Payton, and Bria) slept on the hide-a-bed in the living room and it was so stinkin' cute. They all came in our room at 7:30 am and asked if they could get up, haha.

 Sunday it was cloudy and cold at the beach, exactly what I picture the Oregon coast to be like. The funny thing was that we drove about 36 seconds north and it was blue sky and gorgeous. Gotta love Oregon!!

 We are so grateful to be able to spend time with family and create memories for our kids that I had as a child. Lanie and Tasha and I have so many wonderful memories as kids and now our girls can have them too!
