After a very busy Halloween, we got up early the next day to make the trek to Gleneden Beach (cute little beach between Lincoln City & Depoe Bay) for Papa's 50th birthday. (I know, our step-dad is young!) Great meals, kite flying, long walks along the beach and playing with the cousins made it a perfect birthday get-together. What a wonderful weekend at a beautiful beach house with some of our favorite people! (And thanks to Grama & Papa's good friends who let us use their amazing house!!)
