So the first day we got there, Ben and Lindsy and kids came to pick us up from the airport. Sadie was so excited about seeing her cousins. Right before we landed we had a LOT of turbulence on our flight so I wasn't feeling so well...it took me about 30 minutes to get feeling normal again. We went to a golf course in the area and the kids played a round of miniature golf because they had gotten free coupons somehow. It was fun...the kids just ran from hole to hole hitting their ball at their own pace. They loved it. It was kinda cold and windy though. So we finished up, went out to eat and then we went to our hotel and checked in and went to bed.
The next day was Zac's birthday. He was pretty fussy about it too. He was starting to get sick...so I don't blame him. But we had the cousins over to the hotel and we all went swimming. That was pretty fun except when Sadie fell off of the pool stair and was drowning for like 5 seconds. That scared her a little bit but when Rob came back over and carried her around again she was all smiles. Then that evening we went to Ben and Lindsy's house and they made us dinner and they made birthday cake for Zac. He didn't really eat any...which surprised me. I think he was thrown off by the frosting...it got all over his hands and he couldn't get it off. ha ha.
On Wednesday we went to the aquarium and saw lots of cool fish and stuff. Sadie loved it. Zac was still feeling yucky, so Rob carried him around all day while he slept a lot and I pushed around an empty stroller while trying to keep up with Sadie. After that, we went to the coast...but it was really windy and cold. I took over holding Zac while Rob watched Sadie dig in the sand and he took her up close to the water. She was pretty cold after that. But it was a fun day.
That was pretty much the first half of our trip. Here are some pictures to prove we had a lot of fun. (these pictures are out of order...)
Thea and Sadie looking at the fish under their feet!
Sadie at the beach. It was cold!
This picture is blurry but I loved the jellyfish. They looked so cool!
And the sea otters. We saw them get fed. It was really neat.
Zac's birthday cake.
Sadie and Wyatt trying to help blow the candles out.
Thea was such a good helper. She was always helping us feed Zac. ha ha. She is going to be a great big sister!
Swimming
Sadie at Target. She wanted to try the helmet on.
We took the kids to a nearby mall to get out of the hotel. And of course, we had to ride on the cars.
Zac opened his birthday present at the hotel. He really liked it.
Mini golfing...this was on the 18th hole.
Those kids had so much fun...Thanks so much to the Kevan's who let us borrow their car and GPS and fed us food and entertained us the whole time we were there. Sadie misses her cousins already!

That looks like you had so much fun. I totally recognize all the things you guys did and where you were at. I hope you liked it. That area of the oregon coast is the WORST for wind. Just 30 minutes north or south and it's much better. Hope your little guy is doing better. We've sure been thinking of him.
Loved the photos. Looks like you all had a good time. Too bad Zac didn't feel good....
