Mooooo

Hazel as a cow at the Tillamook Cheese Factory.

Pink ice cream cone. Her favorite part....the cone.

Sunny Day

Such the ham....

Hazel found a small hill in the dunes of the beach that gave us a nice warm, sheltered place to watch the waves.

Kite Flying

Manzanita Beach gets pretty windy in the afternoon so we took advantage and flew a kite. Hazel was so excited to do it, and still mustered some excitement up after discovering that she didn't get to fly up high in the sky with the kite.

Drawing on the Beach

Silly Snapshots

Toes in Sand

You forget how it feels to run your feet through beach sand and feel the grains move between your toes, beneath your feet and over the tops...that mixture of tickles, warmth, and softness.

Walk In the Water

Loves the squishy wet sand.

Getting closer to the water.

Ready for the waves to crash on her toes.

Ooops....Didn't get the picture of the "wave" knocking her over into the water, but did get the sadness afterward. We don't think she was upset about falling in the water, as much as she was about her Beatles shirt (as she puts it, "my favorite shirt to wear") and sassy jeans getting wet and sandy!
