Florence, OR

Most these pictures are from our trip to the coast a couple weekends ago. It was our little family's celebration of Mitch's birthday. It was a beautiful day and we had a ton of fun! However, we were shocked at how windy it was on the beach - we barely stopped there - Cars couldn't even walk on the sand, bc he was just the height for it all to get in his eyes.

A few of these pictures have a border and some words. This is from an online class (Jessica Sprague's) that my aunt Brooke told me about. Kind of fun to learn what some of my photo programs can really do!

I think this is my favorite outfit of Austynn's! These are Carson's old wranglers and they look awesome with this pretty, cowgirlish shirt from her cousin's :)

I really like this one, too - he had so much fun checking everything out.

If you notice, in the pictures, Austynn is nearly always looking and smiling at me :)

Ok, unless she is going after the ice cream - smart girl!!

We checked out the sea lion caves. Pretty neat and very smelly!

I liked this picture because I had no idea the bells had such a pretty print on them until I looked at the picture.

Carson's reaction to the wind :)

This is taken on Mitch's birthday - we made him cookies and took them to his work. This is Austynn's first cookie dough (yummy!).

You go girl!

Cars wasn't messing around either! :)

My cute girl sporting an athletic hat - nice work, Aust!

I don't know why I haven't done this sooner! I just remembered how much Cars liked playing w the pots and pans, so I thought Austy deserved a try and she loved it!
