Fun At The Beach

After being stuck at home for the winter we wanted to get out and take Annabel to the beach for the day. So we all jumped in the car and headed to Cannon Beach. 

When we got there it was pouring down rain but after a little while it cleared up and turned out to be a beautiful day. Annabel had such a great time running around the beach, going into a couple of pet boutiques and going to Ecola State Park.

Running and playing. 

Ecola State Park was beautiful

We loved all the little shops and especially loved Bruce's Candy Kitchen where we got some chocolate. I think Annabel's favorite store was Puppy Love where the lady gave her a bunch of treats, or the coffee shop where the lady gave her a giant dog biscuit. 

Mmm rum ball, sea salted caramel and toffee

On the way back Annabel was so exhausted she slept the whole way. I think she was dreaming of running on the beach. 

Kiss Me I'm 29% Irish

Well Jon is 29% Irish so I think that makes me Irish by marriage ;P

This St. Patty's Day was spent like most, eating some yummy food. 

We made sure to wear our green

And danced a little jig. 

And toasted with our green drinks

We made a yummy corned beef and Irish soda bread

And for desert some shamrock cookies 

Annabel may have had one too many cookies!
