A Fun Day at the Coast

We've been working pretty hard on rentals lately...and the kids have been spending a lot of time at home alone. We start early, and come home at dinner (or after) and it seems a lot has fallen on their shoulders lately. We give them a "to do" list, and take off to do our "to do" list! SO...we had the idea to make a day and go have some fun. The kids were given the option of picking what to do. They both wanted the water park, and Kristin really wanted to go to the outlets. The outlets and a day at the coast sounded appealing to us, but Ryan was disappointed...so, we figured hey, lets do both. Coast on Saturday, and Water Park on Sunday after church.

We had a leisurely morning, and then left for the coast around 10:00. We packed a lunch and figured we'd do supper out. We had great weather all the way over, and when we came over the hill, there was a fog over the ocean. It wasn't long, until it burned off, and by the time we got to Cape Foulweather, it was looking pretty good! It was windy, as it always is in the summer....We had a great lunch, and then headed into the 'best ever' gift shop. At Cape Foulweather, this place hangs off the edge!! They have the most unique gifts.
After there, we headed to the outlets, and had a blast. Kids spent their money wisely, Ryan spending down to the last penny, and Kristin coming home with $30.00 of her $40.00! She is hilarious! We enjoyed a great supper at The Sea Hag in Depot Bay...our favorite place! Stay tuned for more water park fun tomorrow...providing I take my camera!
