Ocean Shores

This weekend was set to have some of the best weather we've seen this year, so we decided to pack up and head to the coast for the day. It's a three hour drive to get over to Ocean Shores, so we started out early and got over there just in time to have a picnic on the beach. The weather was fabulous and the water wasn't too cold for wading. We spent some time flying our kite, beachcombing, playing in the waves, watching horseback riding and crazy moped riders speed by, we saw whales just beyond the surf and we walked around the little strip of beach shops. On the way out, we found a "public fishing" spot and let Scotty throw the line in for a little bit. I finally got a little color, but I slathered the boys in SPF 50 so they maintained their pasty whiteness just fine. Jay on the other hand looked a bit hot by the time we left. All in all, it was a great no-agenda family outing at the ocean.
