A Day at "Carousel Mall" Seaside, Oregon

   Yes we all went for a ride on the Carousel!

And we did have fun.... but Sandi and Becki went to go look at a few of the shops while Ryder and I rested.  WE waited and waited..... till I finally had to go find them and this is what we found!

So we had to join in on the fun!

If Grandpa only saw this in action he would of died...... Sorry Wan . Wish you were here!

Wan your Daughters told me to look crazy.........Did this work?!

OREGON FUN

  Ryder trying to fix aunt Becki's Sand Castle.....well really he was in the destruction mode! 

Sandi couldn't wait to get in the water. 

 She was the BRAVE one!

1...2...3....JUMP! Can you tell Ryder didnt want to get his feet in the water!Finally Ryder got Courageous! and then he thought it was fun!Sandi took this picture of Ryder and Grandma in front of our Home away from Home.  The Tolovana Inn in Cannon Beach, Oregon.Becki got impatient waiting to have a seafood dinner! EEWWW GROSS!

Grandma and Ryder just relaxing on the Beach.  Wish you were all here with us!

SOCCER

Grandpa and I have become soccer fans! This is pictures of Madisons first soccer games!

Listening to the coaches instructions

And away we go! These little 3 year olds are not quite sure of what to do! But they were all eager to get in there and do their part!

Look at Maddi go!

.

Maddi really got into the game. One time she was ahead of the teams kicking the soccer ball and just about to the goal when she looked over her shoulder and saw kids close behind her. I know she knew she was to get the ball into the goal so she never missed a stride and reached down and picked up the ball and ran it in to the goal! Of coarse I was more into the game instead of taking pictures so this picture is just in our minds!

Our first game completed and now the cheer for the other team!

We will have more soccer to come....... Arlee's games start soon! And we will hit the road for Utah to see how Utah soccer players compare!

Camping up Little Greys

Yep we made it! Finally we were able to go camping. Beautiful weather and surroundings were abundant.

This is our little corner of the world!

This is the kids favorite place to go camping. We did this when they were young and all at home! So it brought back lots of happy memories! From playing in the little greys river to a mountain lion invading our camp in the middle of the night! This trip was just relaxing. No phones, no television just peace and quiet!

These two little visitors were a lot of fun to watch!
