We're on vacation in the Northwest and having a BLAST!

So far, we have been 5,200 miles since we left Georgia!

We have been through Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, Montana, and South Dakota in the last 18 days.

 Here are more pictures from our visit to the Oregon Coast:

We were welcomed with a beautiful rainbow when we arrived in Newport, Oregon early Monday morning, June 22, after driving through the night from Midvale, Idaho:

After breakfast, we walked down to the beach.  It was so cold!  Only about 50 degrees!

...this did not stop the boys from going in the freezing cold ocean!

Boys being boys...

This little girl sure has been a trooper on this trip, along with her brothers!

Caleb, Lydia, and Mommy on beach

I love this picture Aaron took of Daniel and I walking on the beach...

We stayed at a hotel right on the coast- it was beautiful!  This lighthouse was near the hotel.

We all went down on the beach at sunset to play and enjoy the beauty...

 

It was cold, so Lydia and Daddy went back in, but the boys had so much fun playing on the beach...

More pictures to come!!!  Keep checking back!

7/6/08- Daniel started the 2's and 3's bible class.  He's not in the baby class anymore- *sniff*  Regina is his teacher this quarter and she said he did great in class.  I'm so glad.  He's really been working on his prayers.  He wants to jump right into them without an "introduction."  He doesn't say "dear God" in the be...

7/4/08- Happy 4th of July!  Had a nice relaxing day.  Took some pictures of the kids- it sure is hard to get all three in a picture together.  We'll have to keep working on that. 

6/29/08-7/2/08-  We took a nice little trip to Northeastern Georgia.  It was nice to get away and Aaron planned it so well.  Just right for the family and for just having a newborn!  So, Lydia started traveling with us at only 2 and 1/2 weeks old.  Everyone did so great on the trip.  We traveled over toward Helen, GA and went to church t...

6/24/08-  Doctor visit for all three kids!!  Lydia's 2 week well visit, Caleb's kindergarten check up visit, and to check on Daniel's' mouth.  All did well and did great.  Aaron went with us and I'm so thankful he did.  It would have been hard  to take all three of them by this point.

6/23/08-  More visitors!  Great Grandma Medvedik and Aunt Jeanne came to visit from Dickson, TN.  She brought a great chicken salad and vegetable platter.  Mom made a yummy zuchinni and squash seasoning thing- everything was so good!  Grandma also brought a delicious carrot cake and made an "L" for Lydia out of pineapple jelly be...

I can't believe this little girl is sitting up now! She looks so cute. She must be enjoying being able to see more things and reach for them to play!

Chanelle!! Wow, it seems like yesterday we were standing in your driveway with you expecting Caleb. Now I see your beautiful little princess, Lydia. She is lovely. I am so out of the loop. lol - Your new house is fantastic too. Are you still in TN? You look beautiful. I will talk to you soon. Love you.
-Liz Montoya
Hi Chanelle...I was emailing Liz and she gave me this website. I can't believe what a beautiful family you have. You are truly blessed. I heard you are a teacher now in Tennessee. It seems like just a couple of years ago we were dressing up like Guns n Roses. I hope this finds you well, and please keep in touch :)
-Nicole Sneath Fell
The pictures look great, Chanelle! It looks like you had a great vacation! I can tell the boys had a wonderful time.

Lydia sure is growing, & she is SO cute, with that sweet little round face & big smiles! :)
