the best week!

Even though it was my birthday & I am becoming a bit crabby about growing older, I have to say, hands down this was the best week we have had in a long time. School is finally out for the summer, I am off work for the summer, G took some days off work to hang with us & it seems the weather in this rainy state might actually turn around soon (not that we will be breaking any record high temperatures but the constant rain might let up). On top of all those great things, we were at the beach (which just happens to be my favorite place in the world)! We did everything I love at the beach! Here are a few edited pictures from the week:

I have started a new collection of pictures of beach themed street signs. A little random I know, but I think they are fun! Plus, I love how G thinks I'm off my rocker when he's driving & I lean halfway out the window and snap a picture of a street sign (he doesn't even slow down for me so a girl's gotta do, what a girl's gotta do;)

Although we did not go to the candy store on this trip, I do love the look of this candy store. Sis complained because I kept snapping pictures & made us look touristy (she's 14 what do I expect?)

The boardwalk.

More of the boardwalk.

Volleyball anyone?

We always have to ride the carousel, it's tradition!

He loves it no matter what he tells you!

One of my favorite activities at the beach!

G's favorite game ever! He wants one of these for the house.

Thanks Mom & Dad for pizza @ our favorite place!

On Tuesday we met my parents @ the Tillamook Cheese Factory for lunch. Yummy food & great company!

This picture will surely show up somewhere in the future:)

After lunch with my parents we went out to find the sunken city & had the best adventure.

We saw Bald Eagles! They were so beautiful.

We stumbled onto a crazy driftwood structure obviously well used & taken care of. There was even a BBQ inside.

Bubba wants to come back here soon.

The beach was almost deserted, we only saw three other people the entire time we were out there. Amazingly clean & bunches of cool shells.

Ok, doesn't this piece of wood look like a bulldog? I thought it was so neat!
We had a pretty quiet drive home yesterday I don't think any of us really wanted to have to come back to reality. Truly the best week!

{this moment} June 10, 2011


{this moment} - A Friday ritual (idea borrowed from SouleMama). A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.

If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see.
