Just a glimpse

We left Colorado on the 25th of June and ventured to Utah for 11 hours in the car. We stayed with Barry's aunt in Pleasant Grove and left the next morning for Sacramento. It took 12 hours to reach Shannon's aunt's house. We then drove to Corning, CA where we visited with Shannon's grandfather. After the visit we drove to Ashland, OR and there we stayed for a few days before going to the Oregon coast. We stayed in Coos Bay, OR at the Sunset Bay campground. The kids had a blast going to the ocean and playing in the tide pools. We we able to see a whale one day hanging out in the bay. We had wonderful nights by the fire visiting with all the cousins. Barry's family put together a skit one night that had us all in stiches. Some of the older children went to the beach on the night of the 4th and watched the fireworks. They all said that it was awesome. We have enjoyed our vacation thus far. We will continue on to Montana tomorrow and visit Shannon's family. Today, by the way, we celebrated 7th wedding anniversary. Happy anniversary Barry!! It's been a great ride so far. I can't wait to see what our future has in store!!! I love you!
