Thanksgiving and the Oregon Coast

We went to Gruncle Dean's for Thanksgiving this year.  There were lots of people there!  I had fun coloring with Grandma, Daddy and Mommy!

 For dinner I had lots of things, but my favorite was the ham!!  I didn't even bother trying the green beans and brussel sprouts!

 I got to play cars with some new friends too!

 And I brought my turkey that I made at day care.

 My mommy and daddy!

 Grandma and I like to do the wheel barrel walk!

 The nest day Mommy and Daddy and I drove to the Oregon Coast!  We stayed in Cannon Beach.

 this is haystack rock!

 I loved running around on the beaches so much!

 It was super fun seeing sea anemones in real life!

 and shells

 and big starfish!

 This is the Inn we stayed in.

 The next day we explored lots of different beaches.

 I threw rocks

 and drew in the sand

 we stopped at the Octopus Tree

 the Cape Mears Lighthouse

 Mommy calls this fisherman rock (the one in the back)

 I like to hide, and tell Mommy and Daddy to hide too.  I told Daddy to hide behind this log.  We all took turns, of course.

 At Oceanside there was a tunnel.

 ... to here.

 Here I am, being goofy on the beach :)

 We made it to the Tillamook factory

 ... and had ICE CREAM!

I loved the beach!  I learned about sea life and seastacks and got to run around and collect neat things.  It was so much fun!  I cant wait to go back!
