Friday morning we got up and headed out. The Hammers left really early to try and get home that night and the Browns left for home going south and making their way through the Redwoods before going back to Utah. We were planning on staying one more day and night in Vancouver with Sid and Dan before leaving for home. But we had to get a picture of our beach house before we left. It was such a perfect house for us - big enough for all of us to stay together and have our own space. Lots of rooms and lots of places for the kids to play.
We headed north along the coast and made our way all the way the north end of the state Astoria and to Fort Stevens and the shipwreck of the Peter Iredale. It was a pretty cool beach and fun to see the actual ship that wrecked.
Josh brought our kite with us and we spent the next couple hour just hanging out and flying the kite. It was a really fun but windy beach so it was perfect for kite flying. We had such a great day together and left with our ears and hair full of sand!
We found a little restaurant right on the water in Astoria and had fish and chips while looking out across the Columbia River. Josh and I both felt so grateful to have brought our kids on this unique vacation and to have had such a fun time with friends and family. I know it's a trip that we will all remember!
