Perfect Weekend at the Beach!

Good evening!

What a FABULOUS time we had at the beach!! The weather was picture perfect, the family was so much fun, and there was so much lazing around – it was RIDICULOUSLY FUN!!! 😉

Jason and I left Beverly Beach today to head home! It was surprising too because we just couldn’t get over how PERFECT the weather was! It was sunny all freakin’ weekend, except for the one or two hours of light rain in the wee hours of Thursday morning, which is EXACTLY what we had hoped for!!! So, after packing up, cleaning up our campsite, and giving all of our leftover firewood to a nice family who was staying longer down the way, we headed back onto the road to come home. That is when we realized it, today was the first time ALL WEEKEND, where the weather was kind of cloudy and overcast! We were leaving just in the nick of time!!! 😉

I am sure Jason feels the same way, but I can not speak for him, but what I will say is that I really needed this weekend! To just get away from it all, have some quiet downtime, spend a few days without the concept of time, without obligations or schedules, and without all of the hub-bub that comes with my normal life!!

I had a moment this weekend, one of a few actually, where I was actually consciously aware of just how blessed we were! God has tended to all of our needs, and has even seen to gift us with happiness too!! That combined with some quality time spent with family, what more could a girl want????

As I head off to go to sleep, in my own bed…

Have a FABULOUS evening!! 😉

Enjoying The Ocean!

Good afternoon!

I thought I would try posting a little earlier today than I have been the past few nights!

Today has been an awesome camping day with family, just like the past couple of days have been! However today, we actually got down to my favorite kind of beach, a SANDY ONE!! These pics are all pictures of our family doing various things on the beach, more specifically, Beverly Beach! It is so handy that the our FAVORITE place to camp is close enough to just walk to get out onto the shores to play in the sun and surf!

Here is Paul, Aaron, and Gavin building a giagantic sand castle with moat, drawbridge, and flag.

Here is Taelynn, Gavin, and Alice. Alice has a towel wrapped around her – this is her attempt to stay warm!! Silly girl!! 😉

Here is Uncle Jay-Jay and little Gavin!! He is gonna be a heart-breaker ladies!!! Mamma you better keep an eye out on your son!! 😉 The other heart-breaker in this pic has already been taken by MOI!! 😉

Sister St. Alice, no wait – that is Alice trying to stay warm!! There ain’t no saint here!!! Hee! Hee!! 😉

Here is my sweet beach bum contemplating the mysteries of life!!! Do you like the milk jug tied around his body??? That is his keeper for all of his treasures he plans on finding at the beach today!! THAT’S MY LITTLE MAN!!! 😉

This is me getting some kisses from my sweetie!!! Man, I really love that man o’ mine!! 😉

Here is Alice and Gavin, same red hair, same nose, same toothy grin!! I LOVE ‘EM!!!

Uh, Uncle Jay-Jay, you had better run, he looks small but I think Gavin is going to get you!!! GO GAVIN!! GO!!!

This is Gavin “Treasure Hunting!” He kept yelling it over and over again, “Treasure hunting, treasure hunting, treasure hunting!!” I think he gets that from my side of the family!! 😉

Here is Taelynn hamming it up for the camera!! She sure loves getting her picture taken!! 😉

Heres Aaron, and Paul’s finished sand castle! Didn’t they do a GREAT job???

Ok, well Jason and I are going to head back to the campgrounds now, so we can go join in the fun and mischief that I am sure we are going to cause this evening!! I will make sure to have more pictures to share with you tomorrow!! Seeing that tomorrow is the day that we all part ways and go home, I will be posting later in the afternoon!!

Have a FABULOUS evening!

 

Off to the Beach Again!!!

Good morning!! I am SUPER EXCITED that I am getting ready to head out to the little beach house for another fun weekend at the coast!!! This time, I am taking my Daddy out there for Father’s Day weekend!!

My Dad and I don’t get to spend too much time together since he lives 2 hours away, and I am always soooo busy, and he doesn’t usually travel too far from home. So, I am sooooo excited for this weekend!!! I know we will be starting in Lincoln City, and then possibly going to Depot Bay and Newport, if we are feeling froggy!!! 😉

I am going to make it a point to get to this little coffee shop that is not too far from the beach house so that I can blog every evening! Plus, I KNOW that my dad might get a little stir crazy if he isn’t able to at least get online once a day!!! 😉 So keep an eye out! I will do my best to take a ton of pics, but then, when do I not???

I am also hoping that my dad will sit down with me, and let me interview him! I would LOVE to be able to post that interview here – so cross your fingers, and wish me luck!! 😉

Have a FABULOUS day, and hopefully I will post again this evening!!
