Girls' Getaway












To celebrate Mom feeling better, she took us away for a very fun and relaxing weekend at Cannon Beach. We stayed at the Lodges which is a brand new place right across from my favorite bakery in - so I was in heaven! The place was very nice, and it was wonderful to have lots of space! We saw all kinds of weather while we were there - completely foggy to the point where we couldn't even see the ocean when we were walking on the beach. Then it was sunny and then it was sunny and very windy. Amy and I walked in the wind a mile up the beach, and it felt like we had walked three miles! The next day it was pouring and then cleared up. Mom made us a delicious dinner Friday night, and we played cards and hung out. On Saturday morning, I got my coffee and espresso glazed raisin bran muffin at Waves of Grain. Then we took an Omelet class at the Cannon Beach Cooking School. We learned how to make three different kinds of omelets and also how to make the most delicious French toast. Mary was not too excited about taking a cooking class, but she made it through the class and now knows how to make a frittata! After class we did some shopping and picked up pizza to eat back at our house. We watched some of the Duck game and just relaxed the rest of the night - it was SOOO wonderful to not have to cook, clean, etc. We had lot of great laughs, and Mom definitely spoiled us and made us feel so special. It was great to come home feeling completely relaxed after a few very busy weeks. Thank you, Mom! You are the BEST :)
