With school already in full swing and the chill of fall creeping into the air, our little family itched for one last hurrah.
At the beautiful Pacific Coast! Is that not the most beautiful view ever! I love this wonderful little part of the world!
Ben had the day off of school and Erik was off of work, so we bundled the little ones into the car and made the two hour trek to the beach.
We napped on the drive, sipped sweet tea, listened to music from my sister's wedding and enjoyed the wonderful scenery.
Before too long we pulled up to Rumiano Cheese where we sampled yummy cheeses and ate squeaky cheese that was so fresh! It was still warm! I bought enough to bring home and share with the family... and then went back and bought some more!
After a rather sandy lunch on the beach we played.
And played.
And argued.
And played some more.
There was plenty of running with Papa but thankfully no playing in the icy water.
The little ones soon tired but before hitting the road home, we ventured to a little aquarium. We saw a newborn baby manta ray and stuck our hands in the tank to pet little sharks.
There was fun to be had in the mouth of a shark....
And doing our best to surf like a big kahuna.
But before long the wind kicked up and we took our cue to hit the road.
So until next spring, good-bye Pacific Ocean!
We'll all be dreaming of you!
