SPOONYDIPPEN 2008-ROCKAWAY BEACH OREGON

WE JUST HAD A FAMILY VACATION ON THE OREGON COAST AND HAD A BLAST! IT TOOK ME ABOUT A WEEK TO GET THE PICTURES ON THIS POST. I HAD TO CHOOSE FROM OVER 2000 PICTURES! IT WAS HARD TO CHOOSE WHICH ONES TO PUT ON HERE BECAUSE i LOVE ALL OF THEM! JUST SO YOU KNOW, THIS IS KIND OF LIKE A JOURNAL/SCRAPBOOK FOR ME. I'LL GET BOOKS MADE OF THIS IN THE FUTURE, SO THAT IS WHY IT'S SO LONG!

THIS VACATION WAS A BLAST! WE WENT DEEP SEA FISHING & CLAMMING, FRISBEE THROWING, WE WENT ON WALKS ON THE BEACH, ATE YUMMY FOOD AND DRINKS, LOVED READING, RELAXING, HOT TUBBING, ENJOYING EACHOTHERS COMPANY AND MUSIC, LAUGHING, CRYING (HAPPY CRYING), AND LAUGHING AGAIN, CHEESE AND WINE TASTING, WATCHING THE LITTLE COUSINS BOND, AND SPOONYDIPPED. FAMILY, I LOVE YOU! THANKS FOR MAKING MY LIFE THE WAY IT IS. I LOVE GETTING TOGETHER, IT SEEMS AS THOUGH WE ARE NEVER APART BECAUSE WE JUST PICK UP WHERE WE LEFT OFF. I JUST WANT TO BURST WITH EMOTION BECAUSE I LOVE YOU. THANKS FOR THE GREAT MEMORIES.

ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS

We had to play rock, paper, scissors to see who got the better bedroom. I don't get it. Mike would stare in my eyes and then he'd say "k. I'm ready" like he could tell what I was going to do next...and he always one. Mike has magical powers.

BEST FRIENDS FOREVER

THE VON TRAPP FAMILY SINGERS

MY FAMILY IS SO TALENTED. I THINK EVERYONE CAN SAY THAT ABOUT THEIR OWN FAMILY! BUT I AM SO PROUD TO BE PART OF MY FAMILY. I ENJOY SITTING BACK AND LISTENING TO EVERYONE MAKE MUSIC. THE BOYS ARE ALL SO GOOD AT PLAYING THE GUITARS AND SINGING...THEY ARE AMAZING! NOT TO MENTION DANIELLE AND JEN ARE AMAZING ARTISTS TOO. HONESTLY. THEY COULD PUT ON A CONCERT AND I BET YOU WOULD LOVE THEM!

FRISBEE-THE GAME OF LIFE

EVERY DAY WE PLAYED FRISBEE...TAKE A CLOSE LOOK AT THE FRISBEE OR WHATEVER YOU CALL IT BECAUSE NEXT TIME YOU GO TO THE BEACH YOU HAVE TO BUY THE EXACT KIND. IT'S THE BEST!

LOOK AT THAT ACTION! EM...IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE WEARING A HALLOWEEN WITCH OUTFIT.
SOOO GRACEFUL...YES...THAT WOULD BE ME.

DAVE WAS A PRO FRISBEE PLAYER...YES BRANDON...SO WERE YOU. TICKLE TICKLE.
Wow Daniela bean! Didn't your mother teach you any manners?? Oh wait! Mom took the picture. Good pic Mamma!!

I LIKE TO TAKE LONG WALKS ON THE BEACH...

MY BEAUTIFUL EMILY

YOGA MOM

DANIELA LIKES TO PRETEND LIKE SHE'S A SCARY ANIMAL SOMETIMES. IT'S SCARY.

WHEN I LOOK AT THIS PICTURE, I THINK I LOOK LIKE PIPPI LONGSTOCKING. EXCEPT I DON'T HAVE BRAIDS. CAN YOU SEE MIKE, DAVE, AND BRANDON IN THE BACKGROUND...SWIMMING?!!!
WE'LL SEE YA LATER!

Clam Digging

Dave and his digging rock...the clams get down in cracks where it's really hard to get them out. Mike took us clamming and taught us how to watch for the water squirting up and then you run to the spot and start digging. It was so rewarding to find the clams after digging through rocks and mud!

Wow! Check out the clams! Let's just say that we had yummy clam chowder that night!

Just Us- Oregon
