Costal fun!

Our whole family was able to go to the coast this year and hang out for 5 days. we all had a blast ! and were sad to say goodbye to everyone and the beautiful oregon coast.

here are pictures from the fun memories and adventures we experienced together with brothers, sisters, in-law, aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, moms, dads, and of course grandpa and grandma.
