Seaside

Liwai wanted to go somewhere we'd never been before to celebrate Mother's Day weekend. He proudly planned our first roadtrip to Seaside, Oregon.

This is a mural on the wall inside the ice cream shop.

Sweet sunshine! The beach reminded us of bonfires in The Karate Kid. Strolling on Broadway, the town's main street.

Spence discovered Tilt-a-Whirl and made Daddy take him on it over and over!

It's the End of the Trail for Lewis and Clark...and Spence and Cami

Although it looks like a hot, beachy day - it was windy and very chilly! For some reason, freezing seems to be a theme for us.

Cami loved sand in her "apple hippers" = pineapple slippers

Liwai thought the broken sand dollars in the sand were fake, we all never saw real sand dollars before!

What's a family vacation without going to the pool? We had fun in the indoor pool that was way warmer than outside.

This was also Cami's first time sleeping on a bed. At home she's still in the crib with no complaints. Anyway, she rolled off the bed in the middle of the night - kaboom! She yelped a little but by the time Liwai picked her up and put her back on the bed, she was snoring. Thankfully she didn't remember anything in the morning...she could have been traumatized for life!

Main Street was complete with an arcade, my air hockey game put Liwai to shame.

Farewell Seaside, we had a wonderful time!!

The long drive home was another story...
