Memorial Day

So we did many, many things this memorial day weekend. To describe it in a post would be long and boring. Instead, here it is in pictures:


This is Pilar at the Tillamook factory as she enjoys her first ice cream cone. Pure Joy!

We also visited the Blue Heron Cheese factory. They had a petting zoo, which the girls liked in theory. Having goats actually lick your hands was not as pleasant as it sounds.

We also went to the beach. (Lena's request) It was MUCH colder than the beaches in California, but they girls had a great time. Lena made a sand castle, which she decorated with shells. Pilar dug around in the sand and made a few small piles.



The next day we visited a light house. Lena slept in the car most of the time, but Pilar enjoyed running around.Once Lena woke up she visited the Octopus tree with her dad. Here she is acting like a monkey.

Finally, we visited another beach (while Pilar slept this time) and Lena collected a few rocks. The views were spectacular.

On Tuesday, we visited Peter in Eugene. My allergies went crazy, so we did not spend a lot of time outside. Although we did visit a local park where I made the girls "flower hats".
There is one day missing because I forgot to pack the camera. Unfortunately, it was also the day we saw waterfalls, which elicited "WoW!"s from both girls. They also got to see some wind surfers on Hood River. All in all, a memorable weekend.
