Friends + Food = Fun!

Memorial Day at Rockaway Beach with all of our friends. Priceless!
The Edson family, McBride family and our family rented out a beach house in Rockaway for the weekend. We had so much fun. Unfortunatly, the typical Oregon weather had returned and it was long pants at the beach. The kids still had a lot of fun. We had so much food, we did not know what to do with ourselves. There is not a lot of pictures from the beach trip because we were all having so much fun talking and playing, we forgot to grab the camaras!
The kids all got along great and let the adults play and talk. Poor Spencer Edson is only 18 months and none of the kids wanted to let him play with them. But the adults gladly helped to keep him entertained. We made it down to the beach each day for at least an hour. Any longer than that and we were frozen! On Monday, we left town via Tiallamook Cheese Factory for a good bye ice cream and squeaky cheese. Mark McBride made all the cars a Rockaway Beach CD to listen to as we drove. It is great! The kids still request it to be played every time we get in the car! It has a lot of fun summer beach songs on it that the kids just don't know how we know the words to them. We are always asked to stop singing.
It was a wonderful weekend that is requested on a frequent basis. Oh if money grew on trees, life with friends and family would be so much easier!

Going to the factory for ice cream!
