Family Time at Cannon Beach

FINALLY!!!
A fun family getaway....with LOTS of pictures to capture each moment.  It's difficult to narrow down your favorites when you've had such a great time together.  There were hours spent on the beach...running and jumping in the sand, exploring the coastline, and catchin' some waves.
We took the scenic route home along the WA coast - Long Beach - beautiful views from the lighthouse.
The kids rented a beach bike and had fun racing and chasing each other.

Tuckered out...long days spent in the sun at the beach would make anyone crash.
Me and my honey.
These two are two peas in a pod...and buddies for sure!
Crashed on the sand...I guess if you're that tired you can sleep where you drop!






The BEST candy store we've ever been in...and something for all ages....read the fine print...
"mommy's sippy cup"...I can think of a few people this would suit! :)

Dad and his crew....


This was something the kids spent hours doing....running up and down the sand dunes...sometimes you get going so fast that your legs get ahead of you and you end up eating a bit of sand.

We enjoyed spending every day on the beach.




This was how we ended our day...campfire right on the beach as the sun set with a glass of wine.  Doesn't get much beter than that!






There are so many more pictures but you get the idea....we had such an amazing time as a family.  We will definitely be returning next year...a new tradition has been made.

The Oregon coast is so beautiful! We used to go camping just south of Cannon Beach...we may have to start that up again. Looks like you had so much fun! :)
