Beach Day with the Bishops



We had the opportunity to take the Bishops to the beach. The whole day was great. We stopped at Rays our local fresh veggie and fruit place and loaded up some yummy snacks for the day, then we were off. It took a little longer than usual to get into Seaside because of some road construction but after that half hour delay we were finally there. We stopped to get some lunch and went straight to the beach. We like Gearhart beach because it is much more secluded. This time was even better than normal. They had plowed the road that goes onto the beach, creating two great big mounds on either side. So, we of course, took the opportunity to jump off them over and over again. We were covered in sand and happy to be.



Later, we built a fire on the beach and roasted turkey dogs and marshmallows. Yum! Okay so not that yummy but roasting stuff is always fun to do, especially on the beach.




Off to the Ocean! He wanted to go there over and over again.




I don’t know how this kid did it but he didn’t’ care about the sand literally all over his face. He had sand in his eyes, nose and mouth.




It was a good day.

Cultural Pass to the Childrens Museum

 


The Childrens Museum is such a fun place to go. Zachie has been such a great little man this week we wanted to take him somewhere fun. So, with the help of the handy dandy library we were off. We had been to the museum before but Zachie wasn't walking yet so it limited his exploration of the different exhibits. This time he was ready to go and see it all. Unfortunately, our camera kept attempting to die so we didn't get a lot of the fun pictures we wanted but we managed to get a few action shots.




I think Zachies favorite exhibit was definitely the grocery store, where he got to push a Zachie sized shopping cart everywhere. He tried to leave with it!!! He also really liked the dig pit and his old favorite, the baby room (there is a slide, enough said).



                                             
                                           

                                             

                                  Zachie in the water room, he splashed up a storm in here!


                                             


We got to go with our good friends Avrie and Kaelie. That made the whole trip a whole lot more fun. Avrie is such a picture poser, we got so many great smiley pictures of her!


                                            



Check out this amazing garbage tree. It may be made out of garbage but I love it!
