Pacific Ocean Part 1

This past week was a total bummer - what with Cole being so sick, we had lots of canceled plans.  No Fourth of July events, no fun trip to Portland that we've been planning for weeks...it was frustrating.  Not to mention being stuck inside for a week straight taking care of my little sickie...well, Cole and I were desperate to get out of the house.


To help us feel better, Chris scooped us away on Saturday for an impromptu day trip to the coast.  We've wanted to take Cole to see the ocean sometime this summer, and with an incredible heat wave hitting us (100*! GAH!), Saturday was a perfect day to go.

 Cole's first view of the ocean:

 But what he was actually more excited about:

 Until we got down to the water:

 He wasn't too sure about walking on the sand - "WHOA! WHOA!" he kept saying.

 Throwing rocks to make a "SHPLASH!"

 Look at the ocean, Daddy!

 "SCHPLASH!"

 "BRR!"

 he really loves to "SCHPLASH!"

More pictures to come tomorrow!
