We started out going to our family's beach house in Lincoln City with 3 families, which included 6 adults and one baby. We've evolved over the past 10 years to 2 families with 4 adults and 6 children. We take pics each year and they always end up looking exactly the same except the kids are a year older. We have routines that have become habit now like mom's do Memorial Weekend shopping at the outlets one morning and the dads go to their favorite beer spot, Mo's, for beer and clam chowder the next afternoon. The kids indulge the dads' campfire fixation by chowing on smores as many nights as they can squeeze out of them (adults are referred to as, "the moms" or "the dads".
This year we celebrated our 10th anniversary of the trip by doing an Olympics theme. We decorated the house in red/white/blue and put on Olympic games for 2 days. Team Campfire and Team Ocean competed hard, medals were awarded and ice-cream was slurped down after closing ceremonies. The pics show our spaghetti relay, limbo, obstacle course and more. Gotta love friends who are family!
