This past week the Wichers took a trip to Cannon Beach to get away and celebrate Chad's birthday. We rented a suite with Melissa's parents and carpooled down in their van to enjoy our week at the beach. The weather was great and we had a nice time reading, relaxing, swimming, playing on the beach, and dining in town. We also made a few trips to Bruce's Candy Kitchen for salt water taffy. It was a nice way to cap off the summer. Enjoy the photos!

We've had a few weeks of great weather and have been taking advantage of it as much as we can. Chad's Mom (Grandma Barb) was up for a visit to attend Chad's cousin Ian's wedding, so Finley and her Grandma had plenty of opportunity to spend time together. Grandma Barb's visit was a huge hit and Finley still keeps going into the spare bedroom to see if Grandma is ready to wake up and play with her.
Grandma also got got a big surprise when we took her to breakfast in Seattle, and there waiting at the table for her were Chad's sister Jennifer, Jennifer's boyfriend Duane, and 2 of her three grandsons. They had all driven up from Vancouver to help surprise Grandma. Here are some photos from the trip and other events this summer.
