The Greatest Daddy Ever!

<







What can we say about our dad, well we sure do love him.
Lexi loves that he is silly, she loves to goof around with him, she loves when he tells her stories at night, and she loves that he is good at sports.
Cole loves him because he is awesome, he loves to wrestle with him, he loves teaming up with him to make the boys team, riding in his truck, going fishing, and talking about hunting.
We think he is the best daddy in the world.

Oregon Coast

We made a stop at Multnomah Falls, took a little hike up to the bridge so Dustin could point out to the kids were he came and swam under the Falls as a kid. The story went something like this...See that spot were the water is coming down (water falling 300 feet or more), well I thought I could swim underneath it, and well I couldn't, it pushed me really far under the water, it scared the crap out of me, I almost drown. (It was a very long hike, for that interesting story)

We saw tons of fish at the Bonneville Dam, ponds full of trout, and giant Sturgeon.

When we stopped and visited Bonneville Dam, we watched salmon, and shad running through the fish ladders.














Lexi and Cole just loved the ocean, Lex collected hundreds of sea shells. Cole loved the waves and the water, it was a little chilly the few days we were there but Cole got wet anyway.
