Ecola State Park.02.17.08
Shawn and Hilary came and visited us for President's Day weekend and we went to the Oregon coast. We went to Ecola State Park, which has a gorgeous view of some of the beaches and we went to Indian Beach. Believe it or not the weather was beautiful for it only being February. It was about 60 degrees and sunny. In fact we stayed there to watch the sunset and it was gorgeous! You just never know what the weather is going to be like at the Oregon coast-so we were very lucky! We had a great time and the kids loved chasing the seagulls and getting dirty. Although when the sun went down it got pretty cold real fast. Taylor and Navie had taken their shoes and socks off and got their feet in the water, so when it got cold they were not happy. Thier feet felt like icicles!

November 2007 -Abby's blessing/Alayna's 2nd Birthday
I know that we haven't posted a new blog in a long time, so I am trying to get caught up on some of the events that happened before Christmas! On November 25, 2007 Abby Lynn was blessed by her Dad, surrounded by people that love her. It was a wonderful blessing- in fact I got teary-eyed! Abby is the sweetest baby and it was such a neat experience to see her be blessed. It was nice to have so many family and friends there to be a part of it. It meant a lot to us. We know that Abby is truly a special spirit daugther of our Heavenly Father and we feel honored to be her parents.
We also celebrated Alayna's 2nd Birthday the same day-I mean we might as well celebrate it a day early since the friends and family were already here for the blessing! We made it a double celebration for our girls! We had a Barbecue and a pinata and we had a lot of fun. Alayna was so cute as always although she did get a little overwhelmed by all of the wonderful presents. She is so loved and spoiled by her family and friends. Alayna is a princess girl-she loves anything that has to do with the Disney princesses, so it was a princess party! It was a wonderful day!
