We wanted to add a few more pictures.

Does this look familiar? Goonies! This is Cannon Beach where they made Goonies. The rock is called Haystack. They have a pretty big beach too, but it's really crowded.

I'm trying to learn to boogie board.



Valerie learned last year, so she's a lot better. Valerie and I are doing it without wet suits because that's how we roll. Not everyone is able to board on our level! Valerie's cousin Cameron (far left) is one of the few daring enough to board without a suit.

Backwards again! I'll get it right someday. We went to Idaho Falls, Yellowstone, and Oregon this summer and had a lot of fun! Thanks especially to Grandma and Grandpa Wixom who had every room filled and the fridge totally emptied. It was great getting everyone together at the same time.
This is the air museum in Tillamook. It's a huge blimp hanger from WWII.



Don't wake mommy, she's been up all night.


These are two of my favoite things! (Ice cream at the Tillamook dairy.)


Cade the pirate. Mark Spjute, Valerie's uncle, had activities for all the kids at the campgroud and the theme was pirates. There were swords, treasure, and lots of pirate talk. Thanks Uncle Mark!!!


A typical "sunny" morning at the beach.


I dont know... there's just something special about those two.


Cade loves playing with faces. He's got Sara and Amber's next!


The antler arch in Jackson Hole, Wy. It was really hot. We just got in from Yellowstone, where the weather was beautiful and cool.


Grandma and Valerie getting in a few holes.


Our first trip to Old Faithful. We had a lot of fun and we were really fortunate because the park was free that weekend. The weather was great and it wasn't crowded.


Sorry about that. If you turn your head a little you'll see the temple and falls at Idaho Falls. It was really hard getting Cade to look at the camera because he wanted to watch the falls.


This is Cade's first time in the ocean.
