Depoe Bay Trip
We just got back from a very relaxing trip down to the Oregon coast. Tom's dad put us and his siblings up for a few days right within view of the water, and we all had a great time.
There wasn't quite enough room for all of us in his timeshare, so Tom and I stayed just up the road in a little cottage-like hotel. It was so nice to get away for a long weekend and do a whole lot of nothing.
This was the view from the condo's patio. We got to hear the waves crashing and birds calling 24/7.
John, Abby, and Merrill
All of the adults but me chose to go on a whale watching tour. I was SO very glad I had opted out. I stayed back and watched our 2 year old niece Lorena and got nauseated just when they told me about how much the boat had rocked when they'd gone out.
Jeremy, Abby, and Lorena at Agate Beach
Overlook by Beverly Beach. (Haha, I just noticed that this is the one picture of myself I posted on this blog and my baby bump is all covered up by my jacket)
Lighthouse next to Agate Beach
Lorena with her favorite uncle, John. They were inseparable - when we were getting packed up to leave, she kept making him pick her up or hold her hand, because she knew he was about to leave. It was adorable :)

Tom and Lorena. She had to keep getting on and off the bench at this lookout. She liked pushing on the bolts and pretending they were buttons. I said "beep" once when she did this, so she started going around pushing them and saying "beet!"
close ups on a squirrel and seagull. There was wildlife everywhere we went, which made for a nice soundtrack.
Beautiful sunset over the ocean. This was a great way to spend our last night in Oregon.
