Kite Festival, Lincoln City

We decided to head to the beach when we found out it was going to be in the upper 90's and higher in Portland. It was the kite festival, so we thought that might be fun. We stayed Friday night and came home Saturday night. We stayed as late as we could. We would have liked to stayed another night. When we came home around 8:30, it was still over 80 degrees.
This was Friday night. Halli could not wait to get out on the beach.
She loves the sand and the ocean!
These were some of the kites we saw. We also saw a guy that flew 3 stunt kites at once. Don't know how he did it. We can barely fly one!Halli likes making sand angels.


I don't know how she can stand the cold water. I think she could stay in it all day. (she told me she could)


Of course after running in the water you have to roll around in the sand.



We made popcorn and fed the seagulls. If you ask Halli to do a seagull, she sounds just like one. After we fed the seagulls it was time for bed, so we thought. Someone in the hotel thought it would be good to set off fireworks in front of our winow. Halli got out of bed and we watched fireworks. We had a great time!

Y'all need to head over to our beach...imagine her at a warm water beach! I'll never forget Keith's face as we approached the beach for the first time after moving to NC. He looked at me and said, "what in the world are all those people doing swimming in ocean water". I made him go stick his toes in... "it's like bath water!" He was so cute! And yes... he is still the one I have to fuss at to get out. Old skin prunes faster than young skin!
