Cannon Beach Spring Break 2012

We went down to the coast for the 1st week of Spring Break. Peyton and Madison both had the flu at different times during the week. So, needless to say, we had some fun moments but we also had a lot of sitting around reading, watching movies and taking extra naps. On a few of the days, in between the girls passing the flu to one another, we had a couple of "nice" days. "Nice" days had dry moments and a few sun breaks. The majority of the days we sat inside and watched the rain blow sideways, heard the hail pound on the roof, and felt the power of the thunder...which shook the house. It was quite the display of weather which we have come to expect at the coast. You just never know what you are going to get from minute to minute. It was nice to just get away!

One of our outings was to Ecola State Park.

We went to try and see the whales that are migrating at this time. No whales were seen, but we did take a little hike and had a beautiful view.

My parents came down for a couple of days. It was fun to spend time with them.

Here are some pictures of our trip...Enjoy!
