Spring break was pretty low key this year. We didn't make any big plans, choosing to just hang loose and play as the wind took us. Fortunately, the weather was pretty nice all week which is rare for Portland. We had very little rain and the temperatures were nice enough that the kids wanted to play outside a lot. We spent a lot of time up in Vancouver, WA with Lisa, Kyle and Keri. It was fun for the cousins to play with each other and for the adults to have someone else to talk to. We went out to Seaside, OR one day with Lisa and Kyle. It was supposed to have been 62 degrees out there, but the wind was incredible. We played for a while on the beach, but the kids couldn't deal with the cold and wanted to come home. (Despite the cold though, Andrew and Marin opted for shaved ice on the way home as their treat. Brrrrr.) Nothing like the Oregon coast to make you appreciate warm sandy beaches. It was still a fun day trip though. Aunt Keri planned for the kids to do some painting one afternoon. They all had a good time making their own masterpieces. Overall, it was a relaxing spring break.
