This was our first family activity of the Summer. Pathetic but true. {The rental project is done. CAN I GET AN AMEN!?}

We started out the day sleeping until almost 8:30…almost unheard of in our house! We hit the road around ten. Made our first stop at the Summer home of Andy’s mom’s cousin and her husband {ya follow me!?} that have a house in Florence. We ended up visiting with them for a lot longer than we had thought but it was so great to catch up with them.

Then we hit the beach. It’s the one we always go to whenever we go to the coast {you know, once a year}. We normally don’t have very good luck with the weather but this day was gorgeous. We played in the sand. Touched our toes in the nipply Pacific. Then headed back to the Jeep for a hatchback picnic!

Just looking at these photos has me letting out a big {SIGH}. What a fantastic day…our little family of three needed this fun day at the beach.
