It's a Dads Life!

I am thankful for the Dads in my life. I am really grateful for Dad Sperry who fixed our broken car this week. I am thankful for Dad Coats who is always there to help us and listen to our decisions and concerns. And I am really thankful for Max's Dad who is patient and full of love. I went outside the other day and this is what I saw...it's a Dad's life.

Tree Huggers

This past week my family came to Oregon and we went on a road trip down the Oregon Coast to the Redwoods. What a spectacular trip! The pictures don't do it justice. Max loved every minute of it. We flew kites, played at the beach, saw sea lions, and hugged some of the biggest trees in the world. We saw the bluest lake and the windiest lighthouses. We stayed in a haunted mansion, a rustic cabin, and the chateau deef. What great memories! Every minute was a highlight.

Strawberry Shortcake

The best thing about Oregon are the U-pick strawberry fields and the shortcake stands. YUM!

Better Late than Never...right?

It is so fun to experience things again with a little child and see the joy in their eyes. After a few days of strep throat Max was back to his old self and we had a wonderful time visiting Grammy and Bampa in Idaho for the Fourth of July. A lot of food, boat rides, popcicles, duck duck goose, and throwing rocks in the river. Max turned two while we were home and celebrated with s'mores, buses, and all of his wonderful Aunties, Uncles, and cousins. He adores Jakey, Gaucho, Ben, and Ty. We love you guys! We are thankful for such a loving family.

It has been awhile, but I lost my camera battery charger.
I just wanted post a few fun pictures of our exciting summer.
John took all of these pictures this weekend on our Roseburg trip. It was fun for Max to see his Sperry Cousins and celebrate Great-Grandpa Sperry's birthday. More to come!
P.S. I guess I haven't even posted that we are expecting another baby boy in November. SURPRISE! Here is my big belly to prove it! It is fun to be pregnant along with my Sister in law DeLynne.
