Mid-??? Break

Around here we have Mid Winter Break. Most school districts tack on an extra few days to President's Day or take the whole week off. Either way, it is a chance for our family to head to the mountain and play in the snow. Unfortunately winter hasn't arrived yet. I heard it is the warmest winter on record for this area. So last minute we changed our plans and headed to Cannon Beach. It was 64 degrees and blue sky.

 Daddy's little helper.

Apparently Sheldon thinks it is helpful to imitate a beached whale when I'm trying to get a photo of all four boys and Brek. Silly boy.

 Sheldon is obsessed with anything that pulls. He spotted this jeep and travel trailer toy when we went to buy wood. How could we resist those sweet blue eyes?

 After dinner we headed to the beach, again. We timed it so we could explore during low tide.

We spent our last day exploring Seaside. You can't go to Seaside

without feeding the seals and touring the aquarium.

 Tyler rode a mechanical bull that looked like a shark.

Since we didn't get to play in the snow,
Tyler wanted Sheldon to practice skiing on the carpet.

Well done Coach Tyler.

Check out that new haircut. Sheldon was so brave. It was the first time in FOREVER that he didn't scream bloody murder during the entire thing. He was able to tell us he doesn't like the "windy." So we made sure the hair stylist didn't use the hair dryer.
