The Oregon Coast

We went to visit Neil's family for a week and a half at the end of August.  As soon as we got there, we went to the Oregon coast.

The kids enjoyed the beach at Seaside.
 Rebecca and her oldest Emily.
 Mom and Dad enjoyed a walk in the sand.
 After the beach, the kids got to enjoy lollipops.
 There are some nice overlooks along the road down the coast.

Steve and Vicki had us over for dinner and birthday cake for Julia's birthday.

Julia approved of her presents.
 She also approved of the cake.

We also had a party at our house for our friends from the church.  Julia enjoyed herself with Hannah and Sydney

Travelling Texas

Neil has to travel to the different offices his company has around Texas, and the month of July was a month of travel for everyone.  We spent 3 days in Tyler with the Edwards, a couple of days in Corpus Christi on the beach, and a couple of days between Austin and San Antonio.

Here we are with Terry in Tyler.
 Julia enjoying the Edward's garden.
 While we were in Austin we went to the Barton Springs Pool to cool off in the evening.  (When I say "cool off" I mean it, the water is 68 degrees coming out of the ground.  The heat of Texas feels pretty good after a few minutes in the pool.)
