Honeymoon

For our honeymoon we spent a week in Oregon and stayed at a cute little place in Seaside. It was such a wonderful trip! I do have to admit had always dreamed of going off to some far away tropical destination for my honeymoon but as my wedding day got closer the last thing I wanted to do was rush far away to yet another list of things to do! They may have been fun things, but most vacations require a vacation when you are done. We needed relaxation, STAT! We stayed in cute little room right on the beach with our own personal hot tub (which got use every night of course!) It was the best getting to wake up to the sounds of the waves crashing and the beautiful beach with not a thing we had to do!
When we weren't wandering the boardwalk or beach we went to Tillamook (LOVE the cheese! yummmm), Nehalem Bay Winery (LOVE the wine and I'm not a wine person, this stuff is good!) Cannon Beach, Astoria (GOONIES!!!), the Japanese Garden, and a handful of Breweries. Here are some of the pictures of our trip.

Rogue Brewery in Astoria. Not the best food unfortunately but fun place!

Cannon Beach!



We ran into a film crew on our way down the coast



RAD MOBILE!!!!



Too tall for the Japanese Garden! :)



What happens when Andrew gets the camera :)



We've decided that trips like this need to happen on a regular bases! :) It was so incredible to get away without a huge list of people to see and things to do.

It was just us, it was just perfect. :)

It sounds like the perfect way to enjoy your first trip together as husband and wife! The pictures are great and I know it is the first of many trips together.
