Memorial Day Weekend Part 1

We spent Memorial Day weekend with Seth, Lauren, Ely, Nora and Riff.  We had a great time in Eugene, Lowell and Florence, Oregon.  Lauren's family has a cottage and it was fun to have a place where the kids could explore to their hearts content and we didn't have to worry about them for the most part.  Friday morning, Lauren and I stayed at the house while the 3 babies napped.  The dads took the older 4 out fishing and to set up camp.



The dads camped in one tent with the 4 older kids in the other tent.  The moms and the three babies slept in the cottage.


Jase and Riff had fun toddling around, well, Riff would full on sprint everywhere. Jase is a wheel man.  Spin those wheels!



 On Saturday we had such a fun day at the beach.  We visited Devil's Elbow which was beautiful and had so many places for the kids to explore.  We were joined by Uncle Phil and Aunt Geniel.  


 Tidepools!  They found mussels and starfish, hermit crabs and seashells.  We also saw whales spouting in the distance.

These caves were so awesome!




Because we were there at the lowest tides, all sorts of cool passageways were open for exploring.






We played all day and then stopped at A&W for dinner and root beer floats on the way home.
