Our Family Vacation to Oregon - Day Three

Today we decided to go to the Oregon temple. I have been there many times, but I have never been inside to do any sessions. So today Adam and Jess volunteered to stay at the hotel with the kids so we could go to the temple. My Mom, Dad, Kelli, and Jeremy came with us. I loved every minute that I was in the temple! It was so beautiful and calming!!

Me and Darin in front of the temple.

Us by the reflecting pool. It was so pretty!

After the temple Kelli wanted to go to Voodoo donuts. They were really good, but I didn't get a picture, sorry! Then after our tummies were full we got back in the car and headed toward the ocean.

But before we could get to the ocean we had one more stop to make. No trip to Oregon would be complete without stopping at. . . . . .

The Tillamook Cheese Factory!!!!

My dad just loves this place! Every time we go to Oregon we drive a long way out of way to go to the cheese factory. We always have to get a cheese burger and ice cream. And also stock up on all the "squeaky" cheese that we can.

This is my dad in his happy place waiting for his food to come!

After the Cheese factory we finally headed to the ocean. Our first place that we stayed at was in Seaside, Oregon. Which we found out later was a huge tourist attraction. Portland got so hot while we were there that EVERYONE came to the beach!! Man I have never seen an Oregon beach so crowded. But we still managed to have a lot of fun!

The night that we got to seaside we decided to go walk along the beach.

Darin and Gage loving the cooler weather!

MyKelle with Poppy. I just love this picture because of there reflections! I thought that it was cool!

Adam thought that it would be a good idea if he buried himself in the dirt.

Jeremy thought that it was a better idea to push Adam over!

MyKelle and Poppy thought that it was a good idea to run away from the waves. (and then chase them back into the ocean)

And Darin thought that it was a good idea to go play in the ocean!
