JULY...

Every year we take off for the entire month of July.  This summer was NO different.  We planned out the entire vacation and my dad booked all of our sites in October of 2013 in order for us to pull it off!

Our itinerary looked like this for the month of July:

Week 1: Fidalgo Bay Resort with the Pearsons (celebrated Charlie's 4th birthday)
Week 2, 3 and 4 we camped down the Oregon and California coast with Grandpa Jim and Grandma Patti and the Mitchells:

• Nehalem Bay State Park
• Cape Lookout State Park
• Cresent City KOA
• Jessie Honeyman State Park
• Beverly Beach State Park
• Cannon Beach RV Resort

When we returned we headed straight to Birch Bay to vacation with the Jones side of our family!  It was an amazing summer!

FIDALGO BAY RESORT:

We spent the 4th of July at the parade...

 After the parade we headed to Anthony's Homeport for lunch...

 Bryan found a new favorite beer...

 Charlie just wanted to wear his new Seahawks jersey from Grandma and Grandpa Jones...

We celebrated Charlie's birthday at the campground...(PICS TO COME)

Then we headed off to Oregon for our three week adventure down the coast.  Our first stop was Nehalem Bay State Park...

The first morning at our campsite started out with a round of dominoes before heading to the playground...

We headed into town to get some donuts...

We found our way to the candy store...

Then headed back to the campground to PLAY!

Charlie learned how to ride his very scary pedal bike...

Emily closed out the night with some tunes...

Beach time...there really is NO beach like the beach at Nehalem Bay.  It is a bit of a hike through the dunes but once you get there it is AMAZING.

Love my little surfer girl...

These guys could do this ALL day...

Grandpa Jim always comes through with the kites...

...and I can always count on Jack to write me a note in the sand.

We HAVE to make an epic sandcastle every year...
