Our Christmas break was action-packed and a lot of fun. Joe got 2 weeks off from school, and we were on the road for most of it. I will probably be posting for days just to catch-up!Our family tradition is to spend every third year with just our little family for the actual holiday. This year we drove down to the Oregon Coast for a couple of days just before Christmas. We always hit the beach in the winter and take advantage of the excellent deals on beach-front resorts. We were able to stay in a suite with an extra bedroom and a kitchenette (always better with the kids) and this was our view. We also had a fire place which was often used after being outside all day. We stayed at Cannon Beach right in front of Haystack Rock, which Hayes thought was "Hayes' Stack Rock," and eventually translated into "Toad Stack Rock," because at our house "Hayes" and Toad" are interchangeable.
The weather was surprisingly beautiful, it was 50 degrees and sunny for our morning on the beach. In the first 5 minutes Hayes was knocked down by a wave and totally soaked. We found sea shells and a ton of jelly fish. It was so pretty! More to come.
