Is that the beach I see??

So we've been experiencing a bit of vacation let down these past couple of weeks. It has been hard to get back in the swing of our daily routines after having so much fun. We gladly jumped at the invite that Ken extended to us to go out to the beach with Jeff's Uncle Norm and Aunt Barb.

After a bit of a long car drive we arrived at the Ocean Shores beach. The fog was so thick we almost didn't believe there was any water except for the noise we could hear of the surf. The kids of course wasted no time getting right into the sand and water to play.


We had some yummy sandwiches and just hung out. It was nice and relaxing to just be at the beach and watch the waves come in. As we stood watching the kids the tide started coming in closer and closer. Our watch line continued to move back each time the waved would surge in. We spend a solid 2 hours of play and as it began to get a bit colder and the kids were soaked we called it a day.

After a quick pack up we headed home and the kids took some little cat naps. It was a nice outing and I'm glad we got the chance to go. It was nice to meet Uncle Norm and Aunt Barb as I've never had the opportunity to meet them so that was a bonus. We didn't get much of a chance to chat as the kids required attention but it was still nice to be together. All things considered it was a relaxing day.
