Oregon Coast

During the second week in August we rented a cute little house on Devil's Lake just outside of Lincoln City. The first day we were there the weather was AMAZING! The boys jumped right into the hot tub and played with their bubbles outside. We BBQ'd hamburgers (turkey for us, beef for the rest of the family) and ate TONS of watermelon.
The next day we took the boys to the beach and they had a wonderful time. It took them a bit to warm up to the idea of playing near the waves but once they got up the nerve to get in, there was no going back. The next two days were a bit overcast and rainy at times but there was still plenty to do and on Wednesday the 12th we drove down to Newport for MaaMaa's wedding! The boys were wonderful during the ceremony although Jacob kept saying "uh-oh, uh-oh" over and over again!
Thursday we played in the surf again and we almost lost Uncle Brian to a nasty rip tide but he remembered to swim parallel to the shore and made it in safe! Mom and Dad (Ben and Stephanie) rented Kayaks and we also went swimming in the lake.
Friday, sadly, our last day we went to the Aqarium and the boys LOVED the fishies. Jacob especially loved the tunnel of sharks and enjoyed his new found ability to walk much longer distances. We also went to the Rogue Brewery Headquarters and Mo's for lunch before the drive home. All in all, a wonderful trip with our amazing family.
