The Oregon Coast

For Memorial weekend Ryan and I decided to get away. Luckily I was able to find a place to stay at the last minute so we took off Thursday night and made it to Portland. Friday morning we went to the zoo (along with a few thousand elementary school’s.. ugh) But it was beautiful weather and the kids had a blast.

They fought over tractor driving privileges.

Then we drove down the coast and arrived in Newport in time to get settled and check out the view of the lighthouse from our condo.

We spent the rest of the weekend on the beach, building sandcastles, flying kites, checking out tide pools and sticking our toes in the sand. It was the most wonderful weekend, just taking it easy and hanging out together!

We also made it to the Aquarium, which was amazing! Colton was enthralled with the tube ‘o sharks and Delaney had to be pried away from the touch tanks.
