2 weekends ago we went with friends to the beach for the day. Summer seems to be flying by and we had yet to go to the beach so we packed up the girls and drove to Cannon Beach for the day. Jack had another soccer
tournament that came up at the last minute so he choose to stay and play soccer so it was just Brad,
Kadie, Issie and me. It was a windy but pretty day. The beach in the Pacific Northwest is never like the beach in Florida or North Carolina, you need a wet suit to tolerate the water and the wind is always unpredictable. I have only worn my swim suit to the beach one time and it was a mistake. But the views are breathtaking and being near the ocean and watching the kids (and Brad) play in the sand and the waves is so fun. It was wonderful.
Kadie and her friend Marcus, creating sand worlds together.
Kadie was covered from head to toe in sand, she even had it all over her eyebrows and in her ears. She had a great time.
Me and the girls. This is where I spent most of my day,sitting on the towel beside Issie. She would not put her feet in the sand and absolutely not in the water. She freaked out any time the sand touched her legs and I would have to wipe them off. So she happily sat on the towel reaching over to play with the shovel and her little shark dump truck. She is a nut. She did not nap all day and was perfectly fine as long as the sand did not touch her legs or feet.
Issie 5 minutes after getting into the car at 5pm, passed out.
Kadie at the end of the day, sun tanned and happy. Well until we stopped at Pig and Pancake and she could not get a stuffed animal, and she totally freaked out and had to be dragged to the car throwing a fit. Sometimes, it is crystal clear when the day is over and it is time to go home.
Daddy and
Kadie, running to the waves as soon as we got to the beach. Brad just loves to play in the waves and look for little creatures and shells, he could do it for hours.
The family, minus Jack, we missed the boy but had a great time.
Me and my honey. Love you babe.
Issie with her sand issues. She really wanted to play in the sand but could not get it on her, it kept me busy keeping her cleaned off every few minutes. I remember
Kadie this way too, she will soon love it and roll around in it like
Kadie does and we will have to hose her off before be leave but for now she is dry and clean at the beach. Funny girl.
