This weekend we headed out to Newport, OR. Lucas was a trooper on the 4 hour road trip and we were fortunate enough to have our good friends, Carina and Tim, meet us out there. We enjoyed good conversation, pinochle, fresh marionberry pie, and on our one sunny day, play time on the beach! Of course we made sure we visited the Chowder Bowl and The Coffee Shop for breakfast. It wouldn't be a trip to Newport without our favorite places to eat.
It was so fun to watch Lucas experience sand and the cold ocean water. Once he figured out how to dig in the sand, it was all over. That is all over the place! The kid LOVES sand and especially nice big hunks of it to put in his mouth. He was so wore out after playing, he fell asleep in Daddy's arms on our walk home.
Three nights at the beach house are just not enough. Kevin and I thought we at least needed a week there, but we are grateful for the relaxing getaway that we had. Until next time.....
That pic of Lucas eating sand is classic. We've got one of Ava about that age doing the exact same thing! Then she pooped it all out in her diaper the next day, yummy!
Sounds like a great weekend!!
These photos are fantastic.
I have SO been longing to go to the beach. Newport is one of our favorites!
