Labor Day Weekend Happenings and School has started





We saw so much on our Labor day trip down to the Ocean. There are so many photos, so I only chose a couple to post. We stayed at Cape Disappointment State Park on the WA side. It was no disappointment, beautiful state park. We visited two lighthouses at this park. The beaches were amazing. We also went to Astoria, Oregon where they filmed the movie Goonies. One of our fav's. We got to visit the county jail, the Goonie house, and Cannon Beach area where the ship comes in at the end and where they race in the beginning. We still need to recap and watch the movie soon. I loved Astoria there was so much to see. I would love to go back sometime, a little quaint town with a River, and ocean surrounding. We went over one of the steepest bridges I think I have ever been on. We also visited the Astoria column, which I did not like due to it was a 160 stairs and I do not like heights. Jon and Hudson loved it though. We played on the beach and in the sand a lot of the time and went sightseeing. My two fav's were Astoria and Cannon Beach area. We went with my sis and her family and my mom. We had a great time by all. I would love to go back and visit again soon.

School has started for Bailey. She started pre-K, which is prekindergarden just a level up from preschool. Bailey attends Kids at the Creek which is the preschool our church offers. She loves her teachers and is making friends already. We attend her first function tonight, the Hoe-Down BBQ. I will have to post some pictures at a later time. Bailey loves school. She told me the other day at home she was bored. I can't keep her I guess entertained or thinking all the time like she would like. I am watching a little girl who is 4 months older than Hudson part-time during the week so Hudson shares my time. It has been a blessing.

Hudson is going through the pre 2 stage, is there such a stage? He knows the word "no," way too well. He is also in a hitting stage. I would love my little sweet man back soon. I hope this is just a phase that he will soon move out of soon. Discipline is hard sometimes but Jon and I are on top of it! I hope Fall is treating everyone good. I have already indulged in a couple of Pumpkin spice lattes and/or frapps! Oh to Fall!!!!
