A GRAND c-h-i-l-d-r-e-n FOURTH OF JULY

The Fourth of July in Port Orford is truly the most fun day of the year!
Not only do we have beautiful beaches to enjoy . . .
but we also have beautiful people to enjoy them with!
Our Maricela came to spend a few weeks with us and then
to be here for the Fourth activities and fun.

On Sat. June 30th Sarah and her family came to have some fun too.



These girl cousins just love spending time together!

Grandpa loved taking pictures of these three together!
Some serious game playing going on here.
(Look at those beautiful faces!)


Then there is THE LITTLE SISTER!
Blanket and boots ...all set for whatever comes her way!

Then on Tues. July 3rd Mike and John and their families
arrived for the fun on the 4th!

Our town has many activities such as a sand building contest,
dingey races, chalk drawing contest, a quilt show and many places
have a pancake breakfast for a small fee.

Our favorite activity is the 4th of July P-A-R-A-D-E.
(Actually the fireworks are the best thing, but we don't have pictures!)


Patiently waiting for the parade to begin.


Jace was not too interested!
He just loves his cousin Cory!
It's never a dull moment with this young man around.
(What a smile!!!)


CANDY-CANDY-CANDY!
The people in the parade throw candy.
The kids had little cloth bags that my friend made
for them to collect as much as possible.

More girl time.


Our other favorite 4th activity...
N-A-P-T-I-M-E!


The house is quiet again now. Just us and Little Bear.
Our time with everyone was too short.
Hopefully, the beach will be calling someone again soon!


THE BEACH IS STILL HERE AND SO ARE WE!

I love all the pics mom!!! It makes me miss everyone so much! Me and rusty were literally in morning that day because we wanted to be there so bad and had no plans at all that day. I'm glad you were all together though! Its hard to see all the pics when you have been there before and know what you are missing! Maybe next year!! Love you and miss you too!
