Independence Day

Happy 4th of July!

   

 

Celebrating Independence!

We enjoyed a fun family trip to Oceanside, Oregon over the weekend.  The trip included lots of fun with friends!

On Friday, there was a little parade starting right in front of our house.  It was a great way to start off the 4th.  Nolin & her friend Calla even got to watch the parade from a boat.

After the parade, we enjoyed some time on the gorgeous beach.

We took the kids out on the boat to go crabbing & spent a little time on the dock.  They weren't so sure about the crabs!

We enjoyed watching fireworks on the beach & we lit some sparklers (or sparkles, as Nolin would say) of our own.  Harris loved them. It was his first year holding one.  :)

On Saturday morning, we visited the Tillamook Cheese Factory & enjoyed tasting their yummy cheese, fudge, & ice cream!  Then we spent the afternoon on the beach again.

After dinner, we enjoyed an evening walk & a gorgeous sunset.

Thankful for a wonderful weekend with my little family & our friends!
