I just noticed that this day was Friday the 13th! Well, it was definitely not unlucky by any stretch of the imagination!
Here are a couple pictures inside our cute house - I loved the colors and decor, it felt so happy.
This was in our front yard. Natalie trying to catch a squirrel. It wasn't even a close competition. He was way too fast.
A random thing that made me laugh. I don't know who or why someone put this Barbie in one of the walls near the parking of some other beach houses, but it cracked me up. Maybe she is to scare away anyone who tried to park there.
We visited the OHSU Hatfield Marine Science Center on this day. We love it here. For you locals, it is a GREAT alternative to the Newport Aquarium, which costs about $15/person. The HMSC just has a suggested donation of $5/person or $20/family. A lot more affordable. However, the Aquarium is pretty incredible and much bigger. We love both.
We thought this "mama and baby" starfish were adorable "snuggling" together. (O: Awwww.
Sarah swimming with the jellyfish!
Natalie and the Newport bridge.
In the HMSC indoor tidepools - I love getting a close look at the fish there. Fish have always fascinated me. Once upon a time I wanted to be a marine biologist.
One of our favorite coastal restaurant chains! Pancakes sounded good for lunch. (O:
Natalie waiting for her food.
We love to visit the kite store in Newport. And surprise, surprise - we walked out with a new kite! Wallace* go to try it out later that night, but the wind wasn't strong enough to drag him down the beach like her likes to do. (o: We'll have to come back on a windy day.
I could watch the girls play in the water for hours. I think I did.
They look like they are on an adventure.
Best friends. (O: These three are such good buddies, I love to watch them play together with limited fights! The beach puts everyone in good moods. I wish we could continue the magic at home!
Such a beautiful sunny day on the Oregon coast - it doesn't get any better . . .
"The seas were angry that day my friend." Anyone know the source of that quote?
Hey! Look who it is! Mark and Michelle came to play with us!
We got one more girl to come play and be crazy on the beach!
What a beautiful night.
Mark and Michelle joined us for dinner at our house and some playing on the beach. They happened to be staying just down the road. I am so happy that it worked out to see them while vacationing, what a fun memory.
The four musketeers.
