Beach getaway.

Thanks to some last minute schedule fixing at work, we were able to go on our first vacation of the summer. It is rare for Stephen and I to both have a Friday off, so we took advantage of it. Lincoln City is the go-to getway for my parents. We booked a room in the same complex and enjoyed the beauty together.

Adam, Stephen, Ryan, Dad, Ruby and Mom beginning our beach walk.

A beach trip is not complete without sandy, wet feet.

Ruby oblivious to the pelicans feasting right behind her. The birds were diving and splashing around for several minutes, finding  lots of fish.

Fun to explore new places.

My favorite photo of the trip. Ruby has come to love the activity of throwing rocks into the water. Stephen and her share that passion. 

 Everyone slept surprisingly well. Note to self...children sleeping in separate rooms is ALWAYS better and worth every penny! Adam's room happened to be the bathroom. The pack n play fit just right in there, but it made late night potty breaks interesting.

Ruby's view when she woke up.

We hope to have another getaway soon!
