We have had a great time this weekend. A long three day Holiday weekend was just up our alley. The 4th of July Parade was a blast again this year. We always have such a great turn out. Miles and Katrina hung out with friends, we went to a BBQ, set off fireworks and stayed busy!
Dave, RJ and I loaded up the car Saturday morning and hit the beach! Our friend Chris has a house in Manzanita! This was their last 4th of July celebration in their home after owning the home over 20 years! They sold it and are moving on to new adventures! It was SUCH a great time and BEAUTIFUL weather at the coast. Manzanita is our new favorite over Canon Beach! We walked the beach. Had lots of time on their beautiful deck hanging out and enjoying the beach and sun! Sunday morning, Dave and I got breakfast and a coffee , a donut for RJ and we hit the beach for a LONG walk .....We had such a great time and RJ loved it too!
This is Katrina and Kylie last week at the pool having fun in the sun to kick off the holiday weekend!
My friend Jen took beautiful pictures of RJ on the 4th of July.
Thank you Jen!
