Vacation

Yes - this sums it up!

Mike and I think our footprints look like a heart!

Was she happy?! or what!

See it... ( I have a thing for hearts found in nature )

God shes cute!


Above you have seen some of my absolute favorite snap shots. As you can imagine I have millions ( ok only a few hundred ) of other photos, both snap shots and planned. I have yet to get through them all but you can bet I will share when I do.

We got home lastnight and boy I kind of think I need a vacation from the vacation.

First of all this is our first trip as a family to the ocean and our first long trip with Madaya really all together - wow is traveling with a toddler way different than as a couple.

However we had a blast. The Oregon coast is so magestic. I don't know why really but I am almost possitive its the combination of nice people, friendly shops, a beautiful coast line and oh yeah... NO TAXES!!

We had rented a condo on the beach on stiletz bay - in Linoln City, Oregon. The condo is definetely the way to go vs. hotel. We had our own room, bathroom and a great veiw. We even had a kitchen and that was a life savor to our life style! This afforded us the ability to eat as we do at home, and try to stay on a somewhat normal routine!

The days passed quickly as we filled them with playing in the sand, sight seeing, fishing, a trip to the aquarium, tide pools, whale watching and even a trip shopping.... the outlet malls are wonderful why dont we have a tanger center here?!

Mike did great on the charter - he caught 5 salmon but got to keep 1! And 10 sea bass. Curt did too! We all went whale watching. I loved it, Mike loved it Daya was ok with it and Bree... well lets say she doesnt have sea legs. She didnt puke though!! GOOD JOB BREE! and curt wad fine take it or leave it kinda trip I think for him!

I have a smile on my face just thinking about it all. I really enjoyed my time and my vacation -

Mike and I are still planning to make it to the carriebean and this so makes us want to do it more, and all inclusive!

Imagine! Dream.....

Back to unpacking ( and I'll even upload some photos if I can get a minute )
