For several years we have had the opportunity to get away for one weekend each spring with my side of the family. It started at Black Butte when a friend gifted us a weekend there several times in a row. At that time it was just my parents, Mike & Becky, and Trent & me. The location has changed a few times, and the schedule is very different now three kids, but we still have a great time, watch movies, eat a lot of food and laugh. Hard. :) This year Mike & Becky gifted us with this weekend in Lincoln City. Here's some pics:

Sydney putting on her shy/giggly face for Mommy.
One of my favorite things in the world is when she snuggles her cheek up against mine. I love it!
2 Daddies walking on the beach with their babies: one front pack and one back pack.
Jack in the back pack. Carson likes to call him JackyJack.
Syd & Daddy.
My pretty girl!
My sis. Not by blood, but close enough.
The 2 crazy kids that started this family!
Ah, the classic game of human airplane.
This one is from my POV. I love his facial expression!
I even took a little video...We also have another tradition of borrowing a projector and connecting it to the laptop/video console (this time it was the Wii), bringing some speakers and having a HUGE screen on the wall to watch movies and play games. We played quite a bit of Wii Fit this weekend, and Carson was very good at the running. It made me laugh every time!

Adorable pics, as always - especially of Syd. What a doll! And I LOVE the running video. Talk about making a kid tired when they think they're having fun!!! Hmm. Maybe the Wii Fit IS in our future...
Glad you guys had a great weekend!
I love the close up of you and Sydney! Isn't the running great! Ethan has SO much fun doing it. It's fun to watch and gets out a little of that energy =). Glad you had such a good time and thanks for posting pictures!
That face to face shot is seriously precious. I let out this sigh when I saw it. (This happens when things are too cute for me to see)
These kinds of weekends are the best. Glad you got to enjoy!
How fun! And I love, love LOVE the pictures!
So cute. I want to go to the beach with you too!!!!
Too funny that we were both at the beach...different ones, but still! Carson looks like he is such a fun ball of energy and Syd is simply edible. Love it!
So glad you got to get away!
I LOVE the pictures--and the one of you and Syd cheek to cheek is absolutely priceless! Her little hand on your face...oh!
I love all of the pictures! It looks like you guys almost had as much fun as we did in Clear Lake. Family vacations are so much fun!
That's funny - when Jacqi and I were kids we were definitely angels rather than airplanes. Perhaps that's what happens when you don't have any brothers. :-)
