A Day at the Beach

Grant and I decided to make the most out of our Saturday (a couple weekends ago) when Josh had an all day class and head to the Beach! My parents were staying in Gearhart for a golf tournament so we headed that way for the afternoon. We had so much fun!

First we rode the carousel at Seaside.

Then it was on to the bumper cars! Mimi (my mom) rode those with Grant....

Right as it started to rain we headed to the beach. We brought a kite, but the string had somehow disappeared.

Grant was happy to chase the birds and Mimi...

Then it was off to the little train, which might have been the highlight of the day for Grant!

It was a busy day with one exciting thing after another....we were off to the Seaside Aquarium where Grant fed the seals and poked some helpless sea enenamies.

I thought the sting rays were pretty cool.....especially this one that looks like it is right on top of Grant's head!

After a long, fun day for the boy we headed back to Portland. Grant fell asleep within minutes of getting in the car and slept the whole way home! When we got home, Josh was babysitting cousin Brook & Jack so there was even more fun to be had. The kids ate dinner together, played and even got clean.

Grant went to bed and I got a little snuggle time in with my sweet niece and nephew! What a fantastic day.
