Like clockwork

 
You always know two years have passed
when you see a post about Oregon Coast.
 
It's a fun tradition to gather and play
in such a beautiful place with some of our favorite people.


This year's beach house
 
 
Tide pools everywhere


Cooking, chatting


Dancing

Playing

Goofing around, getting attention from fun uncles



Posing with the whole crew (minus my hubby behind the camera)


No explanation needed

Daddy and his daughters


The men


The grandkids

 
Uncle Justin, a.k.a. The May pole


Windy much?

Stephen and a cutie-pie


Eli in the waves

Uncle Jason & Benito

Millie trying to skip rocks
(although it looks like she could use some practice)

The ocean makes me happy

The chitlins in Newport

 
Chase and Millie having some sand time

Now this girl knows how to enjoy the sand!


Pizza monster and cousin Ethan

Sunsets

Writing missionary letters to Brett and Shemaina



Los hombres


Lovely ladies

S'mores every night?

Yes, please!


Rather than take the usual I-5 route home,
we decided to take 101 and see the coastline.


Just-across-the-CA-border redwoods
(and a whole lot of dead windshield bugs)


Southern Oregon coastline views


Pretty, pretty

My family loves you back, Annie! You should join us next time. Seriously. :)

Let's do it, Nae, let's just drop everything and go back to the beach. Our kids don't need school anyway: they can be educated by nature!
