Vacation . . .All I ever wanted

Continued from the last post, . . .

On Amelia's actual birthday, we drove to Oregon to meet the rest of Josh's family. When we got there Josh decided to have a little birthday photo session with Amelia.
Then it was time to have a birthday party with all the cousins
The next day we went to the parade, but the best part was before it ever began Amelia assumed that all these people had gathered to see her, so she walked up and down the street clapping her hands and getting people to cheer for her.
This was our favorite entry in the parade

The rest of the time we ended up freezing our feet at the ocean.
Having fun playing in the water
Getting tan


And taking family pictures

With Grandpa

We think Quinn has picked up on some of Amelia's jibberish.
