Our vacation to the Oregon Coast with the Knudsen and Mroz families. 4,200 sq. ft. house, 5 bedrooms, 275 feet of ocean front view on 2.8 acres of beachfront property! 9 kids under the age of 9 and 6 adults. 2,410 pictures and we are still missing some pictures from 2 other cameras. Don't worry I totally weeded it down. (click on view big so you can scroll through instead of clicking every picture) We had so much fun, and we are all ready planning our next trip.

Happy Easter! It was a fun month. We went to some parks, visited the flower fields, rode some horses, and Gramma Lina visited.
March 2009
Tom took a week off to just hang out with the fam. We went to the Pacific Science Museum with Andy and Sarah. Aria continues to grow and look less like a alien (Tom's words). Maggie contiues to change Aria's clothes and blankies and take lot's of pictures. The boys are asking and praying for triplet girls, I guess they really like her and they each need their own sweet baby girl. (Maggie thanks God, that He doesn't always answer every prayer.)
