The Enchanted Playhouse

Emma enjoyed the new rock wall at the indoor play gym. This is in addition to the tall tunnel slide, and the bouncy house--which were already her favorites!

Cape Meares

On our way back to Portland, we made a quick stop to check out the lighthouse at Cape Meares, and came across this Octopus tree. Emma was gracious enough to pose for a picture to help us remember the wonderful short hike to the tree.

The perfect ending...

Nothing beats a stop in Tillamook for an ice cream cone, after a weekend of camping. Emma, being the ice cream connoisseur she is, was able to finish off her mountain of cookies and cream before it melted in the sun!

Sand Angels

Emma was covered from head to toe in sand most of the weekend. She could not get enough of the beach, and absolutely loved every minute of this camping trip!

Cape Lookout...Part 2

In addition to the awesome campsite, it was a mere one minute walk to the beach. We enjoyed some of the nicest weather we have seen at the beach...sunny, warm, and NOT windy. In fact, we tried to fly our kite on the beach, and the only time we could get it up in the air was when Ken was running at full speed.

Cape Lookout

The Meyer/Dyreson posse's headed to this awesome campsite for the weekend. We had a great campsite, which include an Emma size tree for climbing. Emma had a wonderful time playing with the Meyer dogs too...Marty and the "new puppy".

Happy July 4th!

We had a lovely trip to Silverton, OR to celebrate the 4th of July with friends. Silverton has a lovely city park that was enjoyed by all. Emma and Elias had lots of fun racing down the slide, checking out the river, eating roasted marshmellows, and of course running around with sparklers.
