Fun on the beach!

On Sunday, after daddy and mama got all of their chores done, we went on a river jetboat trip with our friends the Nelson's. We got on the boat when it was really hot, and the driver got us wet on the way down the river. I saw lots of birds, and had fun going really fast. We stopped at a nice place and ate a yummy dinner of chicken and ribs. Then went back on the boat for more fun. The driver got us soaked on the way back up the river by spinning the boat around. It was fun and I clapped a lot every time we did a spin. Monday daddy and his friend finished the garage floor, and then the Rogers came over for dinner. Maren stayed for bath time, but then went home. Tuesday morning daddy and mama took me to the Oregon coast in Bandon. I had so much fun running on the beach in my bare feet. I was laughing the whole time. I put my feet in the ocean and the water was cold, but I didn't mind too much. We walked through some rock caves and saw crabs, starfish, and seaweed. We ran into our friends over there and had lunch with them before they left town. We stayed the night in a hotel and got up this morning and headed back to the beach. We did more exploring and had so much fun. After getting some fresh fish and walking around Bandon, we headed home. I had so much fun that I didn't take a nap on the way home, and I hit the hay pretty early.
