Cannon Beach 2011: re-creating the picture we love

When Callie Beth was a baby, Jake got this picture of her in front of Haystack that we loved.  I played on the computer and came up with this:1 We wanted to try to get the same shot of Ben…boy it was hard.  This is the closest we got.  I will mess with some other pictures too to see what I can come up with.  Not bad?IMG_5984x Some of the shots we got in the process:IMG_5900IMG_5909IMG_5917IMG_5922IMG_6016IMG_6020IMG_6022 And here is Haystack during the sunsetIMG_6031IMG_6034 And the sunsetIMG_6039IMG_6040

Cannon Beach 2011: Little Fishies and Seaside

We went up to the beach cabin in Cannon Beach this past weekend.  It is always so nice to get away and relax (as much as you can with two little ones). 

We did lots of swimming in the pool.  We had a hard time keeping Callie Beth out of the hot tub.  That hot tub was really HOT.  We did let her go in it but would make her go in the pool every couple minutes to cool her down.  She didn’t understand why we were making her do that when a 6 month old was sitting in it!!!!  This girl loves to swim.  She got really comfortable by the end of the trip and was trying to swim on her own without the floaties!

IMG_5793IMG_5802IMG_5820Ben actually loved swimming too!  He just talked and smiled the whole time :)   IMG_0817IMG_0825After swimming…happy kidsIMG_0861IMG_5814We went into Seaside one days to the outlets and downtown.  There was a little train that Callie Beth wanted to ride.IMG_0783IMG_0790IMG_0793 And there was a carousel to ride on too!  She picked her horse and insisted I ride one too.  She would not let me touch her horse while we were going around!  We were thankful she isn’t old enough to play in the arcade or insist on going in the toy stores.  Jake would have a hard time saying no to her :)IMG_0797IMG_0799IMG_0800
