More Seaside vacation pictures...

Found a few more pictures from our family vacation to Seaside, OR. We had a lot of fun on this trip and really enjoyed Seaside! We will have to go back again...

Jeremy and his Uncle Pete... the boys love their Uncle Pete

Mommy and Sabreena on the beach

She is so freakin' adorable!!

We had this bouncy thing when Zackary was a baby and we have taken it to the beach and camping many times. It is awesome... It zips up so they can sleep or play and not get eaten by bugs too.

My boys... walking down the street from the house to the beach. It was really nice being so close.

The boys bought these boards at a shop downtown and had a BLAST with them in the ocean. Definatly a great investment!

They are digging a hole for the firepit so we can have a fire and roast hot dogs for dinner on the beach. This was one of our favorite things I think... Very fun to have a fire on the beach!

And it really helped keep us warm... the nights were freezing!!

Waterslides...

This past summer, in August actually, we took the kids to the waterslides a couple times. The first time we went was to celebrate my nephew's birthday. The boys had a BLAST! Zackary was my only kiddo who had been before. I was actually surprised that Ean and Landon went. Ean is pretty skitish around water... as is Landon. Landon only went down one time, with my sister, and I don't think I got a picture... :( We are definatly going to go back next summer!!

Jeremy telling me "That is SO fun!"

Landon telling me he is NOT going down the slide again!


Sabreena being way too hot in her carseat!

Zackary... LOVING THIS!

Ean... loving it TOO!!

I LOVE MY FAMILY!!!

Visiting Papa...

These boys all look up to their grandpa Mitch... and who wouldn't! We have such a respect for our firemen heros!! We love going to visit papa at the station and playing on the big firetrucks that he drives! It is all so fun!!

Our trip to Seaside...

We were able to go on a week long family vacation to Seaside, OR. in August with Tim's family. He has 7 siblings and they haven't ALL been together at one time in about 5 years, or so. This was fun to be able to see them all and spend time together having fun! I had never been to Seaside and ended up having a blast with my hubby and kiddos! Tim's family... poor little Haley was sleeping, so she isn't in the photo... next time!!

There is a main street in Seaside that has lots of fun shops/stores, restraunts, arcades and rides and we spent a few days having fun there. The boys loved going on the bumper cars... it was pretty fun to watch them too!

Playing in the arcade. Maybe it's a guy thing, but I do not like arcade games... but my boys sure loved them!

Zackary running along the beach one evening. It was actually pretty warm there most days. And that is saying something when you are talking about the Oregon Coast. The coast is never warm, but it was in the upper 80's most of the time, and sunny! That I liked. It obviously got much cooler in the evenings, so that is when we would start the campfire on the beach and bring out the sweatshirts!!

The boys each had some money to spend however they wanted, so they all bought one of these boards at one of the shops downtown. They were only $12 and well worth it! Zackary spent a few hours out in the ocean on his board. He even found a live crab walking around his feet!! That is when he called it quits! Hahaha...

Building sand castles and digging holes is always fun on the beach. The boys dug a huge hole for us to build a fire in that night and roast hot dogs!!

Ean spent most of his time at the beach running from the waves. He was having a blast doing that, that when it came time to leave, we had to chase him down. Speaking of chasing... Ean had an adventure. He was chased by a dog at the beach. The owners felt so bad that their dog had scared Ean as bad as it did. Ean has always been a little scared of dogs and this didn't help. He was fine though... poor guy.

Jeremy showing off his board. He loved that it had a huge shark on it!

Jeremy and Robin

Daddy helping Jeremy burry his legs in the sand... the wet sand was pretty squishy and the boys thought it was pretty funny to sink in the 'quick sand'... I think Landon liked being as tall as his big brother for a bit!

Landon running and playing with his Uncle Andy

Landon and Katie

There was a little mall downtown that was called the Carousell Mall... the boys had fun on the ride there... all except for Zackary. He is too old for this kind of ride now he says... He hung out with me and Sabreena.

Landon had a blast playing catch with Uncle Pete.

Sabreena turned 3 months old while on our trip. Cannot believe how fast she is growing!! She is just so stink'n adorable!!!

There was also a little train downtown and the kids had so much fun on that...

Thanks for a great vacation!!! We will definately go back!!
