Lilly at the Beach

Lilly had a good time at Seaside and Cannon Beach last week.  She discovered that she loves sitting in sandy holes and doesn’t care so much for big waves.

Notice she was wet over her boots within the first minute of reaching the beach.  Also, for the record, notice that I wasn’t in charge.

Not sure what exactly they’re doing, but it looked fun.

Her new favoritest thing, wet sand.  We’re still finding it in odd places…

By the end of the trip she’d decided a nice hole in the sand beat pretty much anything else the beach had to offer.

Oregon road trip- Cannon Beach, Crater Lake & Portland

Last week we took a drive down the coast to Seaside and Cannon Beach. On top of Ecola State Park is an incredible view of Cannon Beach and Haystack Rock. Then we rounded out our trip by going to Crater Lake, Bend & Portland.

Da Ms

Had a good time with my cousins Nick and Brandon up at the Mariner game Wednesday.


The view from the sweet seats Nick hooked us up with.


A nice pile of garlic on some fries. I'm still a bit garlicky a day later.


The sun trying to make a an appearance.


Nick inspecting Safeco.


What Nick was actually looking at.


Evening at the Safe.


One last shot.
