Vacation

So, Audrey and I got back from our vacation yesterday. It ended up being a five state trip for us (Utah, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, and Nevada). Our flights took us from Utah to Idaho and then Oregon, and from Washington, Nevada, and back to Utah. It was quite the experience. Audrey is now a well traveled girl. We both are exhausted!! We had a blast seeing my mom's side of the family. Each of them were so kind to us. We laughed really hard, froze at the beach, and enjoyed the woods around Uncle Steve's house. It was well worth the effort to get there. We have a wonderful family and love them dearly!

Here are some highlights of the trip...

Fourth of July Festivities






Freezing at the Oregon Coast

If you look close at Audrey's blanket you can see the sticker she got from the Whale Watching Museum that we went to. We even saw a few whales surface just a few hundred yards from off the coast. It was awesome!! Seeing how huge whales are made me even more determined to never go on a boat in the ocean. Sea creatures scare me!!!

Anyways, the reason I point out the sticker is because one second it was there on her blanket and the next it was eaten. The remaining sticker chunks were smeared all over her face proving to me that the sticker must have been a tasty treat.

That is it for now. I will post more later.
