Vacation 2010: Cannon Beach

We spent five fabulous days at Cannon Beach in Oregon with Evan's family this month. We had such a great time playing in the sand at the beach, flying kites, cooking foil dinners and having S'mores on the beach, going for lots of walks on the beach, visiting Hug Point, gazing at Haystack Rock from the balcony of our hotel room, playing in the hotel pool, eating clam chowder from Mo's, and visiting Bruce's Candy Kitchen (my personal favorite). We especially loved the opportunity to be with family doing all of these fun things! It was a GREAT vacation!



Lauren was a little unsure of the sand. It took her a while to get used to it. Both my kids don't like their feet or hands to get dirty. They certainly don't get that little quirk from me...that would be ALL Evan! :-)

Sam discovered he could make an endless amount of roads for his Lightning McQueen car. He loved driving them around on the sand.



Haystack Rock...Sam got so excited everytime he saw this (which was often). He kept telling us how HUGE it was. It's not big, it's HUGE! :-)




Sam playing with Uncle Brian. He had a great time playing with him...Thanks, Uncle Brian!
Uncle Brian just got home from his mission to Atlanta, GA.
I love this picture. Sam was sad about something and I snapped this picture as Evan was comforting him. Very sweet.

So tired! Lauren fell asleep as we were packing up to come home.

Maybe it is a Hatch trait... I don't like getting my hands dirty either. Sounds like it was a good time, I love the beach!
