a week in astoria!

we had another awesome week in ft,stevens for our annual salmon fishing trip.  we played on the beach, caught salmon, and just had a great time camping!

obviously this girl had a good time! :)

 tanner being a pirate in the ship wreck on the beach...

 having fun trying hats on at the army barracks

 we had a fun and educational jeep ride around the barracks

 dad and his girls!

 my little hikers...they did great hiking the lewis and clark trail

 it was super windy on the beach and olivia loved it!!! :)

 looking dapper! :)

 i love early morning walks on the beach, just so happened that we found lots of treasures on the our walk!

 amelia found this whole sand dollar all by herself and she was ecstatic!

this girl loves crabs! 

 and then evelyn found a whole one too!

 turns out we found quite a few of them that morning!

 exploring cape disappointment...

 the weather was amazing the whole time we were there.  on this particular day the ocean was flat too!

 we found this beach on our hike to the lighthouse.  i want to hike in and spend the day there next year...so pretty and isolated!

 we made it to the lighthouse!

 the jetty by where they fish...look how flat the ocean is!

 sunny beach time!

 i think these kids could have played in the sand and water all day long!

 the fisherman and kids with their biggest catches of the day!

 prepping the salmon to zip seal...

 there is a lake walking distance from our camp ground that is fun to play at when the beach is too windy.

breakfast with my ladies at my favorite restaurant in astoria! 

 the biggest catch on the trip!  nice one babe!

 the girls love checking out the catches of the day...

 having fun camping!

fishing buddies! 

 all the salmon was zip sealed and frozen before we headed home!  love having a years worth of salmon to enjoy!  so happy to have a handsome hubby that just happens to be a good fisherman too! :)
