Pumpkin Patch!

A beautiful day to spend at our favorite place...the pumpkin patch. I don't know what it is about this place but I look forward to this moment every year. The boys were pretty excited to feed the animals.
Adorable little goat!
Mr Wooley!
I'm pretty sure this goat wanted to let Canyon know who is boss.
We left this patch early because some of our good friends were at a different one just down the road so we spent the rest of our time over at the D&D Patch.
This place was really fun! A little fear showing on Canyons face;)
Sawyer does it with no fear:)
So talented!
Feeding the largest cow I have ever seen!
Canyon found this to be his favorite thing to do...
While Sawyer had a blast on the tire horse!
Finally it was pumpkin time. This is where this patch doesn't come close to the other one but we still enjoyed watching the boys...they didn't know any different:)
Showing off their finds!

Our last day at the Coast

This is what daddy thinks is a good idea to do on our last night at the beach. Mom thinks it's cute other than it's the only pair of jammies they have...dads don't think that stuff matters;) Not just a little rain...full downpour!
The good news is they dried out in time for snacks in bed!
Pretzels, cheese crackers, and pirate booty coma!
Canyon rubbing Sawyers back was the cutest thing ever!!
This is what I always find when daddy tucks boys in...all 3 fast asleep!
On our way home from the coast we stopped in Portland to visit OMSI.
The boys had fun playing with all the different gadgets there.
Way too much fun!
It was a great trip but we were glad to be heading home...at least mom was;)

Oregon Coast Day 3

Day 3 at the OR coast! We started our day off with digging in the sand! It was super windy but the boys did not seem to mind at all.
Watching the boys is always my favorite thing to do and I will never tire of it!
Sawyer is intrigued by the ocean and not afraid to get in it!
This was right after we got hit with big wave. Our boots were full of water!
After playing in the sand we went back to the Aquarium and were thankful to see the seals eat again!
So fun to watch and listen to them beg for food!
Touch tank. They were able to touch starfish and sea creatures;)
Crayon rubbings.
Listening to the ocean!
Sailing in the wind. We went to Cannon beach for the low tide in search for tide pools and the weather was CRAZY!!
It didn't stop us from having a blast!
The water was a little to high for us to search for tide pools but we still enjoyed the beauty of the ocean.
Chasing the boys!
One blessed mommy!
Leaving the beach with some heavy wet pants...oops:)
Another great day!

Oregon Coast Day 2

We started our day at the Seaside Aquarium but I forgot my camera card in the computer so I did not get any pictures:( Tomorrow we will go back just so we can feed the seals again...that was the best part! Our next adventure was the Maritime Museum. We drove to Astoria, Oregon to see this fun museum and it was worth the price of admission for sure! The boys had fun climbing aboard an old Coast Guard Ship.
Extra cuteness thrown in!
Prepared just in case the water gets deep!
Arghh!
It was pretty amazing to imagine how the sailors could live in these ships for such long periods of time.
TV room with some silly characters on!
Some cozy beds!
Life boats!
Another great day! We finished our day in Cannon Beach with a great dinner and headed back to our place to eat desssert in our jammies snuggled up in bed watching Rio!
Looking forward to our next adventure tomorrow!

Oregon Coast Day 1

The Oregon Coast! Seaside, Oregon After being in the car for 5ish hours, the boys were ready to run and run and run some more!
The Oregon Coast is such a beautiful place and we are thankful to be so close to it!
You won't find too many sunny days on the Oregon Coast but it's the storms that make it such a spectacular place to visit!
The boys had fun looking for crab shells and parts of seashells:)
Crab Claw!
Jelly fish
Cutie Pie
Our first day was fun and we are looking forward to more adventures in the days to come!
YAY for daddy being on vacation!!!!
