Thanksgiving in Oregon!


We made the drive up to OR in one shot. We were able to trade drivers all through the night and day to get here (Matt could drive for longer stretches--about 5 hours at a time, where I could only get a good 2.5-4 hours in and then I was done!) It took us about 18 hours!

We went to the Oregon Coast (Lincoln City) for the weekend. Walked on the beach during the day, cozied up to a warm fire and played games at night. Our dogs absolutely loved running up and down the beach!! My parents, my sister Kelsey and her boyfriend and Matt and I all stayed in a big cabin. It was Matt's first time seeing the Oregon Coast...it is very different from CA! We had such a great time!!

Now we are in West Linn (outside of Portland) where my mom and Tim live. We got to get together with some good friends last night and have been able to see other family...I was so excited to squeeze my nephews!!!! They are just my favorite. We are looking forward to spending the rest of this week and Thanksgiving with the fam!! We are thankful.

Yay for blogging! We will definitely follow along in the lives of Matt and Whit. I can't wait until we get to see you face to face and catch up! Goodness. When do you return to the NW??? Much love!
