Life With The Myers: Ocean Shores

We just got back from a weekend get-away to the Ocean! Actually, the girls and I took Dave (and his mom and Jerry) for his birthday. We will still celebrate on his actual birthday but he is having knee surgery tomorrow morning and I know he won't be feeling very festive on Tuesday. This way the girls got to celebrate with him in full force!

We were up and out the door by 9 a.m. on Saturday and arrived to rain, wind and the COLD. We were really hoping for some nicer weather so that we could hang out on the beach before we checked into our hotel room. WRONG. The weather just wasn't cooperating! We ended up eating our picnic lunch in our car and then went through the shops until our room was ready. Once we got to the hotel, the girls wanted to swim and we spent a lot of time in the pool with them. We spent the early afternoon going through more shops, playing arcade games and eating ice cream. Our evening was spent having a great dinner, going swimming again and then after the girls went to bed the adults played cards.

This picture makes me laugh! We are all jammed into our car eating lunch!

Taylor is literally running as fast as she can to get back to the car- it's raining and windy!

The girls and their daddy at the pool!

Maddie insisted upon wearing her life vest into the stores....

Yummy! Ice cream!

We woke up on Sunday morning to sun! After eating a quick breakfast we went to the pool again and we convinced the girls to cut their time short so that we could go to the beach before we had to leave (the girls had to go to a friend's b-day party in the afternoon in Olympia). Talk about a turn around in weather! No wind and sunny! The girls had a blast watching people clam dig, jump in the water and run all over the place!
