Moss By MossWest 2010

So we recently had our 2nd annual Moss family reunion. This time it was in Portland Oregon.

The Moss Family

Grandma and Grandpa Moss

The Moss 6

The Grand Kids

We started off with pictures of the family and a trip to the Japanese Gardens and channeled our inner Heiwa, which is Japanese for peace. It was very pretty but would like to visit in the spring to see all the blossoms and in the fall to see all the colored leaves.

Wouldn't this be amazing to see?

Once we were done with that we went home for a BBQ back at Starlings and a late-night showing of North By Northwest.

The Portland Beach (not very "beachy")

The next morning we piled into cars to drive 1 hr to the beach but before we go there we stopped by Camp 18 for breakfast and it was awesome. So much good food for a decent price. It was fun and rustic. It was an old logging camp that they turned into a restaurant. There was a ton of logging paraphernalia and pictures all over. The kids thought that it was awesome. There was THE BEST HOT CHOCOLATE EVER! It was like the best I've ever had. So good. MMMM.... It was very much needed since it was freezing cold in there.

Little C in the Time-Out hole.

We then went to the beach where there was the coldest water ever. We rented these beach bike things and everyone had fun riding those. On the way back we stopped at a not so good seafood place where at least one person got sick from their choice. I played it safe with salmon.

The Last Day was Game Day where we played Minute to Win IT. I will do a whole post on that later. Then we headed to a local park for a Movie in the Park showing of, one of the best movies, The Princess Bride. It was kind of fun to see it with a ton of people. When the funny lines came people would laugh. When the most known lines would come everyone would say them. And when the old lady is booing so was most everyone else. So it was fun. It was late though and we had to get up early the next morning and go home. But we had a great time.

Thanks to Kylene and Brian for planning a fun reunion.

That is a great pic of the grandkids, but in that one pic I look about 60!

Way to call it Starlings!

This was so fun to watch. I didn't look very happy while I was stacking the bolts. Remind me to smile more often.
