Beach+Family= Good Times!

It's has been the McKinney's favorite vacation spot for years, and last week we got to spend a few days there together.



CANNON BEACH, OREGON


Building sand castles




Finding Star Fish!


Flying kites was Lydia's favorite part of the trip!







Just walking along the beach! A favorite of mine!


On Sunday after church the weather was a little cooler. We went and climb this Lewis and Clark Column. I didn't think I was scared of heights until I tried climbing 350 stairs to the top.


The view from the top was amazing. The kids loved sending off little wooden airplanes that Uncle Josh got for them.





Our family at the bottom, with the Astoria Bridge in the background.

Jacob and Mom



This was the old house we stayed in. It was a kids heaven, 4 stories of fun! Over a hundred years old, we were all suspicious it could be haunted. My one regret is that I never did spook Chris at night.

Jacob enjoyed spending time with Quinn and Amelia.

All the cousins (except Jacob- he slept a lot of the weekend)
On the first day Amelia turned one! We were happy we got to spend her birthday with her.



Thanks for the fun times everyone!

Lost your chance at spooking me Steph! I think we had the most haunted room with a disfigured Abe Lincoln picture staring at us all night long! -Chris

Chris you should be glad there were three babies in the house or you would have been "screaming like a girl." Next time....
