Pacific City

We spent a couple of days in Pacific City with my mom and dad, Alison, and Hannah and Ty the week of Christmas. The weather was amazing. Really...I've been to the coast quite a few times, in quite a few different seasons, and this was perhaps the most beautiful weather I've seen outside of the two days a summer it's over 65 degrees! Hannah and Ty just got a new camera, so it was great to have a picture taking buddy!

The first three were taken on our exploration up the coast north of Pacific City.

These two were taken the second night during the best sunset ever. It was incredible. The bright pinks, oranges, and blues were amazing!

Alison, Hannah, and I had fun writing in the sand!

And some people pictures to round out the trip!

Mom and Dad, we love you and hope you had as much fun as we did! Merry Christmas!

So Erik gets all the credit for the next two. He went for a run early in the morning and saw this Golden Eagle, ran back to the house, grabbed the camera and was able to get these pictures. I can't believe how close he got to the bird. What a huge animal! Great pics babe.

Where did December go?

We have had a wonderful and busy December. We were able to spend time decorating for Christmas, looking at Christmas lights, celebrating with family, and celebrating Erik's birthday! Here are just a handful of pictures from our month. We were able to spend time with my family at the beach for a few days before Christmas, but I will post more about that later.

Erik cutting down our tree. Turns out it is a big one!

The Hemry fam.

A little fun at the big family white elephant gift exchange. Who doesn't want used goggles?!

More gift exchange and picture taking fun!

We hope you enjoyed the holidays too!

Baby Photo Shoot

We are having a GIRL! We could not be more excited. We had our ultrasound on Friday. It was such an incredible experience to get to see her move all around and see all of her little working parts. We were just as thrilled to find out that everything looks great and she should (according to the hundreds of measurements they took) be a healthy baby girl come April!

Here are just a few pictures from her first photo shoot.

The first two are profile shots, the third is her little foot!

We think she's adorable already, then again we may be just a bit biased!
