We spent a few days at the beach last weekend, and had a few perfect Oregon days on the coast...not too hot, not too windy, and not too much rain. Nicholas enjoyed crawling through the sand and napping on Grandpa, while Chris, Kieran, and Mike flew a kite, and Kieran built a beautiful sand castle adorned with tons of oyster shells we found in the shallow surf. Later in the day, Grandpa took the boys on their first fishing trip. Although both boys caught some fish, the trip was not entirely successful, I should add, because Kieran's fish were tiny minnows and had to be thrown back.
Still, overall, it was a lovely, relaxing couple of days.

Loving the freedom!

All that crawling around in the sand tired me out!
