Ok... The real line is "Andy... you Goonie!!" It's what Troy yelled when Andy sent the bucket back up the well with his letterman sweater on it instead of riding it up herself... So if you are not a Goonie's fan you have NO idea what I am talking about. It is one of my all time favorite movies... AND this past week, during Spring Break, we went down the Oregon Coast through Astoria where Goonies was filmed. We stayed in Cannon Beach... parts of the movie were filmed there also. Haystack Rock is a big focal point of the movie and we stayed right down the beach from it!!
Ok... off the movie track... We really did have a beautiful time. It was amazing for Zach not to be tied to work, for me not to get up at 6:30 and pack lunches, and hustle out the door like a crazy woman!! We roasted marshmellows and hotdogs, watched salt water taffy being pulled, had the BEST hamburgers on the way down and back at a place called Mrs. Beasley's (it's the Vadar exit on I-5 if you're interested!) and spent time with some of our friends that were down there also. I guess you can tell I really enjoyed myself.
A picture montage below!!

If you ever have a chance to go down the Oregon Coast, do it! You'll love it...

SHUT UP!!!! *Goonie* is near and dear to my heart :) When my cousin (more like my little brother) was 3 he acquired this nickname from me :) He's almost 21 and still lets me call him that :) Means a lot to me
