Memorial Day at the Beach

We had a great weekend at the beach with friends and family. On Friday we had dinner at Rogue Ales in Old Town. It was fun to spend some time with adults, eat well and share a drink or two.

The weather in May can be unpredictable, and we had a bit of everything. Saturday was beautiful and some of us walked on the beach.

My sister and her family showed up on Saturday evening after dinner. The kids love "pwaygrowns", so most of us followed them down to watch them climb and slide. 

Then we hung out by the fire until the rain started. Unfortunately, it didn't really let up all night or the next morning. We headed into Newport for breakfast, and around noon we took the kids to the Hatfield Marine Science Center. They loved the tide pool touch tanks. Of course, they love to play in water so that was to be expected. After lunch, they headed home and we spent the rest of the day relaxing.

The rain continued on Sunday, so we headed home. It was a good weekend with some much needed rest and relaxation.
