Trip to the Beach

The kids had a lot of fun at the beach. Everything that you hear about the Oregon beach is that it is always cold so we didn't wear any swimsuits since I figured it would be too cold to get into the water. Well, once we got there, the kids immediately ran off to play in the water.
In no time at all M&M & Luke were both wet up to their waist and were begging me to let them change into their swimsuits. So I took the two older ones back to the car to change into their swimsuits and while we were there, DH brought Blondie to me because she wanted to change as well.

Kitty wasn't too crazy about the ocean water so she didn't mind staying in her clothes. I think she didn't like the fact that the water does not stay still and kept coming up farther onto the sand. So Kitty was content to play on the sand with her dad while M&M & Luke stayed in the water almost the whole time we were there. Blondie played about equally in the water and on the sand - one of her favorite activities was trying to jump over the waves when they reached her. Here is a picture of Grandma N. helping Blondie jump over the waves.

It was an overcast day while we were there, but it wasn't too cold or windy. The kids all had a great time and didn't want to leave.
