Saying Goodbye

In early October, we headed to the beach to spread Bret's grandpa's ashes into the waves at Tierra Del Mar (on the Oregon coast). It was a beautiful thing and we're so glad that we got to be there with the whole family to say our goodbyes - it's such a special place to the Ruds and Ewings and it felt right that he should be among such beauty.
The view from Grandpa Bill's Bench:



Otto's hotdogs...of course!


Discovering that sand is FUN!


A view from the neighbor's porch of the family cabin...the US and Norwegian flags are always the first things out to mark our arrival!
Bubbles!

The pics of Hank on Bill's bench are so sweet...basically any picture of that little guy.

So many of these shots look like classics...like you can imagine looking back on them 20 or 50 years form now. Know what I mean? Way to go building up the memory books Dev.
