First Family-of-Three Vacation

Our first family vacation to the Oregon coast was so much fun, and so relaxing. We rented a small cabin-like house near Rockaway Beach for two nights and three days. We had a view of the bay, and two decks to choose from to sit on and enjoy the scenery.

First time the baby feet are in the sand!












For all you fans of "Settlers of Catan", Jason and I bought the "Traders and Barbarians" version so we played with new variations and in a 2 player fashion....FUN! Jason nearly always kept a fire going in the fireplace, and Ella loved to stare at the fire. Her first name does mean "bright light" after all.


We made breakfasts and dinners, ate smores, read books, had good talks, watched a movie, strolled the beach and the little town of Rockaway. Saturday was a windy day at the coast. We played for a brief time and then headed in for salt water taffy.



I don't think anything in the history of the world has been kissed more than those cheeks. Here we are getting lunch at a little deli in town.





Ella currently likes to play with all her toys at once. She is in SUCH a fun stage. She's content to just be held, she loves to snuggle, I think we could take her anywhere to do anything and she will just be happy. It's a wonderful place in life to be and we'll enjoy it for as long as it lasts! :)
