Oregon

Okay so I'm a little behind on my blogging! I took so many pictures and I want to post them but things have been so hectic that I'm going to write now and post pictures later!!! If you didn't know Rob, Hunter, Chloe and I went to Oregon with Rob's family! It was AMAZING, it is so beautiful there, but I haven't been on a plane since I was like 10 and it was only to LasVegas from Salt lake so nothing huge or anything!! We'll I was so nervous about flying that when the plane started to move I started to cry, ya it was embarrassing, Rob even closed the shades on the window so that I wouldn't wig out as we were taking off. I was trying to concentrate on feeding Chloe and not on what was going on, I did better when we landed but still. Hunter on the other hand thought that the airplane was the greatest thing ever, he wont stop talking about it and how he wants to go again! He was so good on the plane I was shocked, he stayed in his seat the whole time and played with his toys and talked with Neil and Diane the whole time! It was dark when we got there so we went straight to our hotel unloaded and then went down the road to place called Sharies to eat, its kinda like a Denny's but it was really good and we got free pie with our meal so that was cool! The next day we got up and went and saw waterfalls, the thing I didn't realize is that you have to actually hike to see the falls, they are worth the hiking though of course Rob had to carry Hunter all the way to the falls and back, the first one we went to Hunter fell asleep so Rob had to carry basicly dead weight and it was up and down and then stairs and really steep trails that we went on the get there and then we had to go back the same way! The next waterfall wasn't so bad though but you still had to go up a trail to get to the bridge but it was right off the road! We did allot of hiking on our trip and walking, after we were too tired to try and go to anymore waterfalls we drove to Seaside where we rented a beach house for 2 nights. It was amazing I have never seen the Ocean so it was a completely new experience for me, our house was right on the beach there was a little path outside the door and you walked down it and you were on the beach! Hunter is now obsessed with the Ocean as well and its all I can do to keep him from getting upset now that were home and there is no ocean! We had to drag him back to the house every time we went down and once we were back he would try to get someone else to take him back! The next day was a little more relaxed, we hung around the beach, went to the board walk to do some shopping and went to see a light house, and to the Collum which we had to walk up 164 steps to get to the top of the collum and then you could throw these airplanes off the top, Hunters went the farthest of everyones, and Rob's took a complete nose dive! Which Rob had to carry Hunter once again all the way to the top and all the way down. Then we went to Cannon Beach to see Hay Stack Rock and watch the Sunset! It was beautiful but we had to park about a mile and a half away from the Rock and walk down the beach to it, it was cool though there are Starfish and Muscles that cling to the rock, Hunter kept trying to go the wrong direction so we would throw a Football in front of us and Hunter we run and grab it then he would throw it back to us and we would do it all over again so that he would keep moving! The next day we packed up and went to a few more waterfalls and then headed to Newport Oregon where we stayed in another Beach House that was about a block away from the Ocean but you could see it outside the windows! We saw some more light houses the next day and beaches and went down to the port to see all the sea lions and boats! The next day we went to Devils Churn that was the coolest we all ended up getting soaked by waves while we were there its hard to explain it you just have to see it! The ocean comes into this narrow place in the rocks and just hits the sides, from there we walked over to the spouted horn that was neat too but I was so nervous that someone would fall in and that would be the end of them, and of course I'm the only one worried about it so they're all getting really close and I'm yelling at everyone to be careful or to back up! It was really neat though! After that we drove to Eugine and stayed in a Hotel, then the next day we headed back to Portland and stopped at the Temple and walked around then headed to the airport, got back on the plane, this time I didn't cry, but I was still nervous, and we headed home! I promise I will get picture on here soon!
