President's Day weekend at the beach

President's Day weekend is a tradition amongst the Anderson clan (Brandon's uncles, who are basically like his older brothers) and this year we headed towards the beach again. This is my third year joining the fam and it was yet another weekend to remember.

I made some cupcakes to celebrate Valentine's Day!


Hunter was as cute as ever in her newly purchased super discount clothes from Newport outlet stores. :)


Lots of relaxing went on, Maree and Jackson are too adorable!

Jackson missing her dad who went out the back door. I absolutely LOVE this shot, need to add that to my portfolio. ;)


We hit up the Hatfield Marine Science Center in Newport, cuz it was free ($5 suggested donation) and super cool. The kids loved it. Below is a shot of Nate through a huge whale skull.

Jellyfish!!!
Jason and Nate with Andy and Alexa mesmerized by the tide pools.


Fish!

The kids being too cute hiding from something or somebody under a yellow submarine.


Earth!

Beach time!
This is all the daddies walking with their wee ones to the beach. I loved how this picture just kinda happened with me walking behind them. So cute.


Brandon and Hunter...

And an Anderson weekend wouldn't be complete without dudes smoking cigars and drinking cheap beer in the hot tub. ;)
