Don and I took the boys to Newport Beach for our 5th wedding anniversary! I know what you are all thinking, how romantic to take the kids. Well, of course it would have been fabulous to jet off to Mexico sans kids, our bank account, nor the fact that one of the two kids still needs his momma to feed him ever 2-3 hours ruled that possibility out. So a family anniversary weekend it was! I keep telling myself, this is just where we are in life right now! Some day we will vacation alone again... Someday....As I type this I am smelling some spit up on my shoulder from Kellen. Someday I will wear nice clothes again. Someday...
However, the weekend was way more fun than I expected. The babies were great on the way down. Kellen slept and Connor watched Elmo! We stopped at the Yaquina Head light house! So beautiful! The water was a bit rough so we didn't make it down to the little beach. We ate at the Rogue (by the way, dinner out with 2 kids is so much easier when a wee bit tipsy). We checked out the aquarium, the harbor seals and the following day we were able to make it down to the water. Connor loved drawing in the sand with his stick. We stayed right in Yaquina Bay at the Embarcadero! It was the perfect fall beach weekend!
