Summer in Oregon: Part 4

The remainder of our summer was very busy, but the good kind of busy. Days filled visiting family and friends, berry picking, shopping, a bridal shower, bachelor/bachelorette parties, enjoying delicious meals at our favorite restaurants, our first family portraits, taking in a traveling Broadway Show (not sure I’ve ever laughed as hard as I did watching The Book of Mormon!), photo shoots, and we capped off our stay by celebrating the beautiful wedding of Isaac’s youngest sister! Luckily, despite all of our running around, we still found some time to slip away to our wonderful little beach cottage for a some rest and relaxation…

I could not get enough of these two together!

During one of our beach stays we celebrated our wedding anniversary. It was perfect to spend the day at the very spot we said “I do” 8 years earlier. We enjoyed a leisurely beach walk with our girls, some bubbly, and a cozy evening snuggled up together… perfection!Cutest. buns.ever.

I was so sad when she outgrew this outfit. Makes me want another little girl, just so I can dress her in it!

The beach was shrouded in mist and the tide was really low on our last day on the coast, making our final walk of the season almost otherworldly. A giant sandbar emerged near the mouth of the river and we were able to walk clear out into the ocean. In all the years we’ve traveled to Winema, we’ve never seen anything like it!Our little bug SO enjoyed her time at the beach, and we are already counting the days until we are back at the cottage with her!
