Beach

I'm sitting in a little beach cottage listening to the wind, and rain, hit the big windows, in the living room. It's a stormy day at the coast and I'm loving every minute of it.

We arrived here on Monday for a short vacation. It's been wonderful so far. The weather has had it's moments. It will be beautiful and calm one minute, and hailing and windy another minute. We weren't expecting sunshine and warm weather. This is the Oregon coast, after all. We mostly just wanted to get away from the city for awhile, and enjoy some fresh ocean air.

It's been so nice having some down time. Chloe loves it here, so much. She loves running on the beach and catching her ball....she also loves finding the dead animals on the beach...I do not, however love this.

Okay, back to doing nothing ;)

I'm Back!!

I'm officially back from my mini vacation :)

It was great. We rented a cabin in Waldport, Oregon, just a little north of Newport.
The best thing about going to those small coastal towns on the Oregon coast, is that there isn't a whole lot to do, except hang out in your little house and do nothing!

It was just what I needed.

Our cottage was right on the beach, literally right outside the living room and bedroom window. You could hear the ocean at night while you fell asleep.


Chloe had a fabulous time. She LOVES the beach. She loved running around, catching her ball, and chasing the birds. She was wiped out at the end of every day. She also really loved the fireplace we had there. Nothing like staying toasty in front of a fire on a chilly, rainy, Oregon coast night.

I'm glad I went. I want to go back.
