Grandma and Grandpa visit!

My amazing parents made the drive to visit us this past long weekend. I love it when they are here. We laugh and play and eat, of course. They are the best with Oliver. He loves them! And we do too. We were lucky with pretty beautiful weather during their visit. 

I still have to pinch myself sometimes at this amazing place we get to live.
Just a walk down the road to this. What a beautiful sunset it was!

love that daddy-o of mine

Oliver LOVES the beach! He loves to play in the sand. He loves to run into the water. He loves to get super messy, of course. I'm pretty convinced he would be content to spend all day every day on the beach. But I guess, really who wouldn't? 

No pants for the journey home because they were too messy. 

On Sunday, Chris wore a thrift store suit (which he tailored a bit). There's a tag on the inside dating it from 1974. I wore my mom's dress that she think she bought around 1982. So we were going retro to church. 

Oliver discovered mango. He was seriously in heaven. Just like his papa is with mango as well. 

More joy at Nye Beach

After getting messy again, we unclothed our boy and he got to snuggle
with me in my jacket. I didn't mind. 

Love those snuggles

Monday morning we took a walk to the lighthouse. It was a lot less windy than last time we were there (when we were almost blown over, literally). 

We walked down by the bay to check out those noisy sea lions. We also had some delicious Tillamook ice cream. Yummy! And we took grandma and grandpa to our park. Oliver loved walking along with grandpa. 

After dinner Monday night, we went bowling. I won, which doesn't happen too often so I have to enjoy it when it does. It was a fun game!

Tuesday morning we had to say goodbye. Sad day :( But we are grateful for the fun visit! Thanks mom and dad!
