On Saterday we went to a Japanese garden. everything we so green and beautiful. 
On Sunday afternoon we drove from Portland to the Oregon coast and we stayed in Tillamook on Sunday night. On Monday we went to the Tillamook factory where they make all their cheese, ice cream, yogurt and other dairy products. We ate lunch there and, of course, I had to eat the grilled cheese. It was DELICIOUS! So cheesy.
Steve enjoyed looking at all the tubes and pipes and levers and nobs ast the factory.
We tried 5 different flavors of their ice cream. Bubble gum was my favorite. Steve's favorite was caramel toffee crunch.
On Sunday and Monday we spent most of our time on the coast. As you can probably tell...it was a little cold but it didn't rain as much as the weather channel said it was going to.
The coast is dotted with lighthouse, most that are still in use today.
Cannon Beach and Haystack rock.
On Monday the last place that we stopped was in Astoria. Steve really wanted to go to the Maritime Museum. It was full of boats info about all the shipwrecks along the coast.
It was so nice to get away for a few days, but it went so fast. Well now we can starting thinking about were we want to go next!

Looks like you visited quite a few places, and had a fun time! Some of those places are our favorites too, like Cannon Beach and the Maritime Museum. Was the Japanese Gardens the ones in downtown Portland?
I'm not sure about the gardens but they were the ones right next to the zoo. They have a lot of different gardens in the Portland area.
Wow - I'm jealous Steve and Nicole!! Happy Anniversary! Mom came and got the kids, but with Holly feeling so gross at night, we didn't bother going out. Holly and I watched a movie for ours yesterday! Maybe we'll go somewhere for 10years!!
Guess that sounded a little selfish, eh! Glad you had such a nice time!!
