Camping Birthday Party Treasures

{8 Candles}
When you have a big birthday while camping you can expect to make a memory...especially if your mom (Tanya)  is super cool.  According to Tanya, Trey had been planning this party for months. It includes just about everything an 8 year old could dream up. 

And in Toad style, here's the party...with more pictures than words.  I think the pictures tell their own story...

Magic & Treasures

Cast:
Birthday Boy: Trey
Party Go-ers: Cousins, grandparents, & Toad
Produced By: Tanya & Travis


Act 1: Treasure Hunt
Travis buried these special rocks in the lake shore when the kids weren't watching...and then when the kids came to the lake I know their minds were filled with treasure finding dreams.

Note: Tanya ordered these special gems and panning equipment via Amazon.











Act 2: Scavenger Hunt
Then teams were split and each had to find a list full of fun things/people/etc!  This included "touching a Toad" and having a team member swim out out touch the floating island.


Act 3: Campground Baseball
A sister sport to backyard baseball.  Fun & funny...just like we like it!



Act 4: Cake Time!
Frosting your own cupcakes couldn't be any more fun.  Complete with chocolate rocks on top!





Act 5: Presents and Magic
While the cake was being devoured, presents were opened & played with.  Then Trey put on his very own magic show...which we all loved.






Such a great time for a great little guy! 


Thanks for inviting us to your party Trey!

The OC: Rugged & Wonderful

{Rugged & Wonderful}
The Oregon Coast has never been famous for its hot sun or warm water.  Instead, the beauty lies in the rugged landscape, sandy shell filled beaches, & making your own adventures.





So last week we spent our time finding special rocks & other seaside treasures,



playing in the sand,



and flying kites!








{Our Fun}
It may not be the sort of fun that you think of when you go to the beach, but we like it.



(This is what happens when I say "open your eyes".)





And stay tuned! Whale watching and crabs will be coming soon!

Love,
Your Beach lovin' Toad
