Crafty

I decided that I wanted to do something crafty for Lucy's room. So I went to the Craft Warehouse on Eagle (my part of town these days) and spent about an hour looking around and getting decorating ideas for my new home. I picked up some fun papers and letters and made...
...this!
I think it turned out pretty cute. Johnny and I will be painting Lucy's room this weekend, after all, she'll be here in six weeks!
This was our first meal in our new home...Mac and Cheese! We are loving our new house, I will post more pictures soon.

Cape Lookout Vacation!

CAUTION: LOTS OF PICTURES! Last week the whole Spjute clan (60 of us) made the 9 hour car ride (including my 7 month pregnant self) to our favorite place on the Oregon Coast, Cape Lookout! The first couple of days it was pretty foggy on the beach, but that didn't stop us!Gavin and uncle Johnny
Most of us did some boogie boarding while we were there (not including my 7 month pregnant self). Thank goodness for wet suits!

Johnny had a blast boogie boarding, even if he did eat it a couple times. I like the wetsuit, it accentuates his skinniness.Now that's a cover shot!
Short hike to Munsen Falls.
If you click on this picture to make it big you can see how swollen my feet were. There is even a fold in my right ankle. How attractive.
Of coarse we had to visit the Tillamook Cheese Factory. Free cheese testing and the best ice cream ever. This is just documentation of one of many trips. (Thanks again Lisa!-she picked up the check on this trip.)
The Goonie Rock!! Where they actually filmed. Hey you guys!!We took many walks on the beach where my swollen feet thoroughly enjoyed the ice cold water.
Can't go camping without making s'mores, and creepily devouring them!
One day Grandma Spjute treated us all to a whale watching trip in Depot Bay. It was so cool, and my 7 month pregnant self didn't even ralf! (I can't say the same for everyone) And yes, we saw a whale!
Uncle Mark had a pirate party with the great-grandchildren. They had so much fun on their hunt.
One of the best parts about being on the coast is enjoying the sunsets. This is cousin Alicia, skipping with glee through the sand.
Heidi, and the hat that NEVER left her head during the entire vacation. I think Jake would be proud.
I can't remember who took this picture (I think Lisa), but it cracks me up. I mostly laugh so I don't cry, look at that belly!
All in all I would say family vacation this year was a HUGE success. Lots of fun, food, and family, the best "f" words out there! Thanks grandma for making this happen.
