Cannon Beach






I think this will be the last post of our trip. Here are some pictures of us on the beach. It was pretty windy and a bit chilly, but still a beautiful day.

Tram and Astoria





I know there are a lot of posts. Please, bear with me. Here are some pictures of the Tram in downtown Portland and Astoria's column. I thought both of these were scarier than the helicopter ride.

Helicopter Ride!





So, as I mentioned in the previous post we got to ride in a helicopter and tour the beach and city. It was actually really fun, even though I was freaking out until we got in it.

We will definitely do it again if we get the chance. We just saw a sign on the side of the road and though "why not" and went.

Weekend Trip






Chad and I ran away for the weekend. We went to Portland and it was so nice to relax and sleep in and see the sights. We went to the rose and Japanese gardens, road the tram, went to Cannon Beach, Seaside and Astoria. The most exciting part of the trip was our helicopter tour of cannon beach and seaside. It was crazy, but worth it!

Swimming!




So, Ellie loves playing in blow up swimming pools, but she doesn't like actual pools that has other people. She is so cute in her swimming suit!

Utah Fun!!





We stayed a few days in Utah and visited some friends. The kids saw horses, baby turkeys, and some big rocks. We had lots of fun hanging out with Kristen, Devin, and Reggie. Ellie loves them. She says so everyday.

Summer Fun!!





We have had a stressful and crazy summer. We are glad to be home and getting back into our routine. Here are some pictures of the scenery on the way home from Texas to Utah.
