Labor Day Weekend at the Beach


We spent the last hurrah of summer at Cape Meares on the Oregon coast. The weather was absolutely beautiful, sunny and warm. We had bought a new kite and the first couple of days were perfect kite-flying weather. Although I did learn a lesson - never let go of the kite string! I did and the wind picked it up and blew it up the hillside. Daddy the Brave climbed up the hill and rescued my kite - then he slid down in a mini-landslide. I'll never do that again!
Flying the kite with Daddy - it's up really high!

Papa and Nana were there, along with Uncle Brian, Auntie Christy and Cousin Alyssa, and Uncle Michael. We went to the Tillamook Creamery (twice!) and had yummy ice cream cones. I now have two new flavors to add my favorites: huckleberry and wild mountain blackberry.

I loved running on the beach with Tashi. We let her off her leash and she ran and ran. It was also fun taking a beach bucket and making sand castles, parking garages and freeways. I collected rocks to use as trucks and cars for the parking garage and the freeway.
