Just thoughts and updates on our little family!

Hey You Gu-uys!


Yup, that is right!  We went to the Goonies sights!  We had to keep the Wutzke/Palsky (now known as the Wulsky's for writing purposes) entertained while visiting us and they wanted a beach day so why not do something we hadn't done before?

On our walk up the driveway I told Benson what we were doing.  He had never seen the movie so it meant nothing to him.  A few days later though Goonies was on TV so he was allowed to stay up and watch it.  Lucky guy!



Benson having fun.  He was more excited about this rock then the house.


Mommy and Benson infront of the house.  McKay and Kimber fell asleep in the car so Daniel waited down there for us and then he ran up after to see the house.


Auntie Brooke taken by Benson.  If the camera is out he wants to take pictures!


We stopped for lunch in Astoria at a Thai restaurant.  In theory that sounds great but I am not that adventurous and I had 4 large sores scattered through my mouth so this was less than good for me.  I like the cone of rice though.


Benson trying to get out of the County Jail from the beginning of the movie.


Daniel succeeded in getting out.


Along our journey we stopped in Seaside to look at the beach there.  Benson was cold so he used Daniel's sweater.  Did I mention it rained the entire day?  Oh yeah, it was sunny, even hot in Portland that day and we missed that!


Finally made it down to Cannon beach.


Kimber loved walking in the water.  She also biffed it on the sand about 4 times and had to keep washing off in the water.  She had fun with that the first time and then didn't want to do it anymore.  She was so cold!!



Yes, this was all on our 5 anniversary.  We learned on thing that day.  Wulsky's we love you so don't take this personally.  We are never hosting on our anniversary again.  If anybody wants to come for a visit around July 15 we will neglect our hosting duties for the day and you will be babysitting so we can go out and have a proper date.


This reminds me of a picture we took on our honeymoon in Banff.

From here we drove to Newport to catch the drive in theater.  We followed the GPS and it took us on some random, windy, back roads.  We kept losing the Wulsky's and found out later that Brooke who had been in the back of the van was very car sick.  I should have known as she gets sick looking at a merry go round.  We saw Kung-fu Panda 2 and Green Lantern.  The kids enjoyed the first and went to sleep after.  Daniel and I both also went to sleep as Green Lantern was less than steller but Daniel wanted to see the ending so we stayed.  Bonus though is that we went and saw the midnight showing of Harry Potter in 3D the night, or morning, before so that was awesome!!
