We had a great trip to the coast last week with the Jagger fam. Nina, Poppie, Eric, Sarah, Ethan, Abby, Mike, Becky, Jack, and baby sister spend the week lounging in warm (for the beach) temperatures and escaping the nasty heat of the Valley. Woot! great timing. We played on the beach, played golf (just me and Eric), watched movies, ate great food, canoe'd (do you like the rhyme?), shopped (mostly the girls), met up with my sis and her kids, ran from the waves, splashed in the waves, roasted hot-dogs and smores, talked, laughed and had a great relaxing trip.
On the way, Jack discovered Becky's sunglasses and wanted to rock them every chance he got. This is his "yeah, I know I'm cool" face.
Jack loved all the time he got with Nina and Poppie.
We spent several hours canoeing up the creek on the north end of the Siletz (by Moe's) with Eric and Ethan. The boys did great!
Once we got back into the bay we were approached by some sea lions in the water. It was pretty neat to see them swimming about 20 feet from the boat.
Jack was obviously happy to be outside, just like his daddy. He loved playing in the sand and the wabbie (water).
It is virtually impossible to get two toddlers and a 3 year old to sit still and smile at the camera...but that doesn't stop us from trying. Even though nobody's looking at the lens, this is still a good pic of the three cousins!
A sweet little baby girl strolling down the beach!
Jack looks really old in this picture to me! I'm loving his curls even more lately. They're going nuts!
Of course, we have to put in the walking down the beach family shot. We've got such a happy little boy!
Jack, rocking the sunglasses again!
The house we stayed at fits us just perfectly. Jack even got his own "room".
Story time!
Two burrito cousins...
Jack and Abby got to ride in the canoe together too...I think Abby had more fun that her face is showing. this was a serious picture.
The beach was just awesome, and we couldn't have timed it any better!
Today the girls went blueberry picking with Poppie and Nina and the kids. According to Becky, Jack ate about 3 pounds of berries while he was filling up his bucket. I'm glad that diaper happend BEFORE I got home from work!
Ethan is showing Jack that all the good berries are just at the tip of your reach!
Way to pay attention, Jack!
Cutest berry-picker I've ever seen!
Cooling off after a hard day in the fields! I'll give you 1 guess who brought the matching alligator water bottles.

excellent! Thanks for posting. Great fun by all. I wasn't kidding when I texted that we missed you at the beach the night you went home. It was great to spend so much time together. I love watching the kids have so much fun playing too!

So much fun to see your blog post! We looked at all the pix for a long time! Loved the narrative, too. Felt like we got to be a part of the fun. What a great memory!

So, so fun! Thanks for all the great pics. HOW is it possible that Jack just keeps getting cuter? He's also looking more and more like you when you were little, I think. Ethan and Abby are stinkin' adorable. You had some awesome pics this time--glad you also had a great week!
great blog!!! those sea lions WERE big ones- i love how ethan says, "Say HELLO to us???" in a worried little voice. No one really knows how sea lions greet folks in a canoe. I'd be concerned too!
okay two things....first I am so excited for you guys that you are having a girl! That is too cool. 2nd- Jack's hair is SOOOO Awesome! Where does he get those light colored curls?!?! Amazing!
Lots of cute kids! It is just the light, or is Abby going blonde?
Whoo hoo - 13 days until we are out there with you!
