Vacation Review

I'm sitting here today with a terrible cold! Ugh! Those back to school germs have caught up with us already. Five of the seven of us have sneezy, runny nose, cough, ick!

So, it seems like a good time to post about our wonderful vacation to the ocean. Maybe I'll feel some of the calm return to me. Calm is healing....right?

We love the Oregon coast and really missed not going last summer (new house trumped it). This year we rented a house we have never stayed in before. We LOVED it to say the least. Our requirements for a beach rental are the following: Right on the beach, nice beach access, on our favorite beach Rockaway Beach, after that we require beds, a kitchen and a washer/dryer. This house had all of that and the bonus was an amazing deck that sat at the perfect height to look at the beach and ocean. AMAZING deck...and Adirondack chairs....and picnic table....oh, the view!

 

We had great weather the whole week. Sun and very little wind! My favorite.

 

 

Awesome deck! We will be staying at this house again.

 

In the morning we would sit outside and drink tea. So fun!

 

 

And play on the beach.

 

 And play with Kali....she LOVES the beach too!

 

And play on the beach in our pj's...well, it is vacation!

 

 

And enjoy the view with a brother.

 

 

And have some great up close and personal time with each other.

 

 

Basically our vacation to the beach is the most relaxing time you can imagine. We put our feet up and enjoy each other's company. I don't cook either. Bonus! We stock the fridge with snack foods...and plenty of junk food that the kids only get on vacation.

 

More pics to come.....
