just arrived home yesterday from Oceanside!
I had the best time! I went to the beach with my family about three different days to hang out and take A LOT of pictures and film.

My Niece Sadye bought a short hair bob wig that was pink for fun and wore it on and off while we were there LOL. I filmed her at the beach with it on and many in my family tried it on too and took silly pictures. I haven't tried it on yet but If I do my thick curly hair might keep my bun that I usually wear every day right now, sticking out the back of Sadyes pink wig! LOL that would be interesting LOL. It's a new look for me original really LOL!

Anyway.....I filmed a lot because I'm planning on making a an old fashioned silent movie of my family on vacation. I really want it to be a funny movie kind of like Mr Hillo's Holiday but with out talking and lots of speeded up fast motion clips where poeple look like there in fast foward. Anyway I'm kind of amused by the whole idea and wonder if I can get away with it.

I made it to the Lost Boy Cave but the tide was in so I couldn't go inside it so I decided to post up some past photos from when I did go inside it. This cave is humungus! I can't wait to show it to all of you, It's like a cavern and it has three openings.

I walk on the beach where this cave is and also two waterfalls which I took pictures of, they're gorgious! My Dad and I had a wonderful adventure on that beach that day. We walked down to the waterfalls and both of us took gobs of pictures. Earlier before I joined him for that walk Is when I visited The Lost boy Cave while he went of alone to explore and take pictures. I climb these huge rocks right by the cave. These rocks are packed with GEODES! No kidding, every year I try to collect bigger ones than what I collected the year before and grab some for friends at home. I found a maraculious find this year! I had been praying that one day I would find a HUGE geode all by myself to bring home and show everyone instead of recieving one from my sister gamela who gets a lot of big one and that I would be alone when I found it. God asnwered my prayer this time! I found amoung a lot of small but fair sizes of rose quart geodes and a few white quart geodes, a HUGE rose quart geode that covered almost a whole half of the rock it was attatched two and there were smaller rose quarts growing on it too. I was awstruck! I was super excited! Oh my Gosh it was a blessing!

That You Lord!!!!!! Clapping!!!!

I gave my Dad a white quarts geode and a rock with a music note shaped geode that made me think of him and his music. It was really neat! I found then further away from the rose quart section near the Lost Boy Cave.

God Loves to bless us doen't he?

That was the top of my vacation also the tillimook cheese factory trip I took with my Mom and got a willow tree girl figerine in the giftshop there. Before that my Dad had taken us out to eat. Before we left the factory I got some black cherry ice cream on a waffle cone!

I went to the Octopuss tree again with my parents but I didn't take pictures this time because I already posted pictures of it from my previous visit.

My Mom and I went to the Lotte place and had a special time.

My family and I hung out and visited each others houses they stayed at. We had a bond fire night at the place I stayed at my parents and my sisters family. That was the best part of the vacation besides finding the big geode and the wilowtree figurine at the tillimook cheese factory gift shop! On the bond fire night, we had it in the backyard of our cabin house and my Dad and my brother Abe sang played guitars and lots of us sang songs together and roasted marshmellows and some of us even had smores.
unfortunatly I didn't get to uses my digatal camera that night because both of it's chargable batteries were out. But I still have the wonderful memory! Thank you Lord for such a blessed night! My family and I also played bolderdash for two nights in a row later in the week.

God really blessed us on this trip!

God Bless you all!
