Oregon and some other stuff

For Kelly's fall break we were able to go to Seaside, OR with his family and stay in their beach house. Usually October is pretty cold there with lots of rain so I was looking forward to cuddling up in big sweaters and comfy clothes. Lucky for us the weather was beautiful and pretty hot which was great.

 Hershal Loved the beach

We did a lot of walking and playing on the beach. Most mornings Kelly went crabbing with his brother, Dad and cousins. It wasn't a successful year for crabbing...

 One of the days we had Kelly's youngest sister take some pictures for us  so we can have some nice pictures besides our wedding and engagement pictures. We of course ending up doing it on the windiest day but they still turned out really good.

Having a little vacation was really nice since we didn't get to do too much in the summer. Kelly's school schedule is really intense and were both trying to work a lot and save money for our baby due in April.

Seaside

For the 4th of July we went with Kelly's family to Oregon. His family has a beach house there And they usually go a couple times a year. This was my first time being able to go with them and it was my first time going to Oregon. 

 I loved this sign at all the beaches. Watch for Sneaker Waves...

 On some tower thing..I dont remember what its called all I know is we threw little wooden airplanes off it.

 4th of July fire on the beach

 Exploring a cave that had starfish all over. In California I can only remember seeing starfish a few times and they were always tiny. These things were huge!

 Very different beaches than California

 I think I was freezing the entire time in Oregon. I'm used to hot beaches, but now being back in Utah where its been extremely hot, Oregon weather is sounding great.

 The sunsets were always pretty

 Every morning everyone would go out looking for shells, one morning they even went clamming. (Clams are slightly gross looking)

 walking the beach

 The "front yard" of the beach house, just a little walk over the dunes to the ocean

 It took almost 20 hours for us to get home...

 we got lost in the middle of no where

I love traveling, even small trips are great. It would be my dream to go out of the country within the year...Im not sure that will happen but it sounds amazing. Thailand or Costa Rica sound like awesome adventures

I might just have to settle for a trip to Disneyland and hopefully get a lot of trips to 

Red Rock Wake Park.

but whatever happens....
