Pops, Jessie Pearl & Levi Thursday morning, before the sun came up, we boarded a plane in Portland, Oregon and flew all the way across the country for Levi’s sister’s wedding on the beach in Charleston, South Carolina. With a 1 year old baby that doesn’t like to be restrained. I love this photo. Such […]

I brought my fancy camera along on the surprise ocean trip and took several family photos before realizing I had left my SD card at home. Here are the photos collected from our phones. A brisk morning walk up to the lighthouse, beachcombing, lunch at a sit-down restaurant (rare!), a game of croquet and much […]
Morning light, sweet baby & new camera. I woke up Friday morning with a sudden urge to see the ocean. A text to Levi (to see if we were on the same page) and we were off to our favorite place in Long Beach, Washington. Just enough time to have dinner at our favorite seaside […]
This is Levi Einar(and Jessie Pearl). My husband and my earthly dearest. I thank God for this man. Yesterday was Levi’s birthday and we stayed at the Adrift Hotel on the ocean in Long Beach, Washington. Comfortable bed, amazing rates and simple, creative, and very hip, industrial style decor. Love, love, love it. Next time […]
Saturday morn I loaded up all 5 boys and baby girl and hit the open road. A much needed spontaneous excursion. This summer hasn’t been so easy. It’s not only my story to tell so I haven’t shared it here. We turned on the radio and drove through the gossamer morning fog, winding through broken […]

Song is “Dream” by Priscilla Ahn A collection of iphone videos and photos. We spent 2 days down at the pond. A time to sit around the campfire, try new campfire recipes, hike, swim, have floaty races and water balloon fights. On our hike to Quartz Creek we met dad working on the fenceline with […]
A weekend getaway in Long Beach, Washington. We went clam digging in the morning tide. We walked through the town shops until I was limping and could walk no more. We ate good food, took naps and sat in the sand. I lounged on a sunshiney bench and the old ladies said “I bet it […]
Anna & I escaped to the coast (Cannon Beach) to eat, sleep and get away from our stinky house and sweet, but very stinky families. Just one night and one whole day to wander through the shops and restaurants. As slow as we wanted. I lounged on the bed in front of the fire and […]
19 years I have been married to this man. We ran away to the ocean for a few days and it was the best anniversary, ever. We stayed the first night in Discovery Coast Inn in Long Beach. Rustic, comfortable, charming, reasonable rate and oceanfront. We will definitely stay again. The next day the captain […]
