Well, it's been almost a month since I wrote last and we've been busy. We just got back from the beach. It was an impromptu trip that ended up being a lot of fun. Mom and Erik went camping down at Nehalem Bay State Park from Saturday-today actually so I decided we would go visit them at the campground on Sunday. It was very nice weather and we got down there about lunchtime. The boys had a WONDERFUL time playing in the dirt being boys. We went hung out at the campsite most of the day. We went to the beach area, but it was SO windy that the sand was pelting our faces. We turned around and went right back. We ended up staying at the campground until dinnertime. Mom and Erik had friends that met them there camping too so the kids and I took off and headed to Cannon Beach for some dinner and then home. As we were eating at Mo's I realized it wasn't as windy there and felt bad that Mason had been so excited about going to the beach, but hadn't gotten to actually play at the beach. I called Tolovana Inn, which sits directly behind Mo's, and they had a room available. So, we decided to stay. We had to head into Seaside to get diapers and some necessities that I obviously didn't have because we hadn't planned on staying. When we got back we headed to the beach for a very pretty sunset. The boys played and had fun in a bit of water. The next morning we got up went to Seaside for some shopping at the outlets then back to Cannon Beach to get ready, check out and play on the beach some more. After that we headed back to see Mom and Erik, then all went to Tillamook to the cheese factory. It was a very exhausting few days, but the kids had fun and that's all that matters. We are home now just resting and relaxing!
