We were very hungry as we pulled into Cannon Beach so we stopped of here for some real good food...
I absolutely LOVE clam chowder so naturally I ordered it at every restaurant we went to. And it was absolutely delicious!
After eating we walked around and did a little shopping. There was the neatest little shops all around, I especially loved the antique shops because they had some wonderful things. Also, there was the coolest hand made kites shop. Isaac just had to get one, they were so neat! How cool is this?!
After looking around at the shops we headed over to the beach and ran into a friend on the way...
This is the view outside the little bed and breakfast we stayed in. Absolutely glorious.
We loved walking on the beach and the haystack is quite amazing.
That afternoon we took a nice drive on the coast and stopped at some of the overlooks... 
After our drive we then went to this log cabin looking restaurant, it was really cool, and the food wasn't too bad either. My favorite part was their hanging plants, check it out...
The picture is a bit dark but isn't this so cool?! So the next day we drove down south near Tillamook.
The Oregon Coast in beautiful! Words simply cannot describe. As we drove down we got a little lost but much to Isaac's pleasure we found a hidden treasure...maybe not so hidden though because it was ginormous! 
This is an air museum that we found, it was used as a blimp hanger during WWII and now it holds some truly remarkable planes. We hadn't had breakfast so we ate in the little 50s diner inside the hanger.
Isaac was like a little kid in a candy shop, just look at this face! Priceless.
Isaac and I were literally the only ones in the entire museum! It was great though, in this giant hanger with only us all you could hear was the swank 50s music playing in the background, so cool.
Amelia and I had some fun hangin' out...
Isaac was so cute, and since he is a sponge and soaks up so much knowledge, he knew SO much about all the planes he was my tour guide and taught me so much.
I love this boy.
This place was humongous! The picture doesn't do it justice, but it was big!
After the Air Museum we headed over to Tillamook and went through the Tillamook Cheese factory.
Oh ya, it was serious business. OK so it seems kind of stupid but we had a blast learning about cheese haaa. Oh and the ice cream...nothing like it! We loved driving along the coast. it is seriously the most gorgeous thing to have the beautiful green forest on one side and ocean on the other.
The lighthouses were incredible. This lighthouse in particular was cool because it has the largest glass, reflector thingies in the world! They were imported from France in the early 1800s and the first one sunk to the bottom of the ocean on the way over but this on made it, how cool is that?! This is us inside the lighthouse...
This next place was one of my favorites and I definitely wouldn't mind living here... 
So we were driving through this forresty coast and all the sudden ran into this..
SAND DUNES! Isaac and I were so mad we didn't have four wheelers because this would have been a riot! The next day we got up early and drove out to Portland to go to the temple out there. It was gorgeous.
After the temple we went to Multnomah Falls...
And it is so much bigger in real life, pictures cannot capture the hugeness of this waterfall. Isaac and I hiked up to the top, it was very tiring but real fun...
Our last day in Cannon Beach we visited the beach one last time. It was really fun because the tide was low so we could see all the tide pools and stuff. Isaac and I tried taking a picture and although we succeeded, we got hit by a wave and Isaac got all wet...Before...
After...this is me washing out Isaac's shoes, they were completely filled with sand.
We had so much fun and did not want to leave this wonderful little place!
