Seaside, Oregon

Memorial Day weekend turned out GREAT! Our original plan was to go to Lake Ozzette with the Jensen's for the weekend and do the hike, see the petroglyphs and camp. When we found out that the Hood Canal Bridge was closed and that we would have to lengthen our drive by an hour or two at least, we decided it was not worth it despite our disappointment. I scrambled last minute to make a quick change of plans - not an easy feat considering it was Memorial Day weekend and EVERYTHING is booked for that weekend!!!

After hours of trying I finally found a little house in Seaside Oregon. It was a perfect weekend. A great little house only 1 1/2 blocks from the beach, AMAZING weather and great company. We had so much fun it was hard to come home!!

The girls bedroom




Skim board lessons. Paul is really good at it.







The girls were sharing an ipod to listen to music and were trying to run down the beach connected at the ears. What dorks!


Haystack Rock at Cannon Beach





We spent all day Sunday at Hug Point Beach. It is our favorite beach in the area and the weather was so nice there was no reason to leave. We spent all day just playing in the water, relaxing and getting sun burns. Who could ask for a better day.


Jess go super cold boogie boarding and spent the next hour wrapped up in this black beach blanket. I had to sunscreen her face because I thought for sure she was going to burn it. Oops - forgot the bottoms of her feet!


The girls thought is was so funny how short I was with my feet buried in the sand.
