oregon

we just got home from a great time in oregon. 

we were lucky enough to get invited to cannon beach 

it's sam's brothers last year in portland 

it was such a great trip. 

the week prior to the trip was a really hard one for me, a little vacation was exactly what i needed 

of course i was nervous about flying and traveling with our little one but he did awesome

what a relief!

however flying out there it hit me that I will never fly again... or go anywhere in public, what being a little nervous about how my child will behave.  luckily this time we didn't have to spend any time walking up and down the aisle or in the bathroom with a crying baby.. however i'm sure one day we will experience that.  

we spent a few days at the beach and then a few in portland so sam could attend a meeting at ohsu, one of the schools he is applying to. 

down by the river. it was beautiful.. in fact all of oregon was beautiful

blueberry picking! so fun.  I wish we had farms like that here

we spent a few nights playing at the park

snoozing on the beach... the sand was heavenly and the temperatures unseasonably warm

skim boarding, we also played football and paddle ball at the beach

(of course built castles and buried sam in the sand too)

lots of cousin time.. Mack is starting to really interact with everyone fun to watch the cousins talk to him

if we get accepted to OHSU i'd be happy to visit you again cannon beach!
