One of my favorite photo's of Finley...ever.

This picture was taken a few moments before she took her first two steps,
followed by a tumble.

We celebrated Daddy's new job at Microsoft with a cake

CANNON BEACH, OREGON
AUGUST 22nd-28th
Poppy, Mimi, Eric, Kristen, Ryanne & Finley

Poppy reading a new book

Both girls loved the beach ALOT

Finley did a couple sandy face plants, and came up smiling

Oregon hydrangea, they really were this vibrant

A trip to the beach

Mimi helping Ryanne down the rocky beach, or Ryanne helping Mimi?

Goonies rock

Picking Oregon blackberries, and then eating them

We stayed at the 'seastar', and Ryanne's room had the big star window

A day trip to Tillamook, for cheese and ice cream

The Oregon coast sunset

Purple starfish and green sea anemones

Finley in the bjorn for an early morning walk and beautiful scenes on the beach

Thank goodness for the traveling, easy clean high chair! It kept her contained...
only for a moment

All the adults had coffee, so Ryanne wanted her own mug of 'pretend coffee'
