This past weekend, the kids, parents and I went to the Oregon Coast to escape the hot temperatures of Eugene (in the 100s) and surround ourselves in the beauty of the Oregon Coast. We had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed nature, and family (minus Ken, who was in New York). Take a look at the pictures.

The Oregon Coast is always much colder than inland …. which makes sense, but this past weekend it was 30 degrees colder. 30!!!!

And the ocean is FREEEEEEZING.

The annual sunset hike with Tata.

I am so grateful for my parents and their love

The grandparents love the grandkids, and as a result, the grandkids love the grandparents.

Playing with sand, hours on end.

Uh yeah, the best we could do.

Of course, we had to learn about insect heating plans and see nature on a small hike! Wouldn’t be a Proskurowski trip without some education and a hike.

The views are ridiculous.

Green, lush.

Oh Oregon, I adore you.

Dunes!

A new sport: sliding down dunes.

It is very steep.

weeeeeee

And again!

We spent a lot of time flying kites….at one point, Cruzzie spent AN HOUR (I timed him) flying it.

Don’t mind Cruzzie’s japanese pop star looking hair.

Jumping after the kite.

Our kite was from last year — Ninja Turtle Plastic Kite — and cost $2.50….and let me tell you, IT ROCKED.
Thank you to my parents for taking us on a little get-away, but more importantly, loving us unconditionally and being a huge part of our life. We love you so much.
LOVE the pink birks/sweatshirt/dress. adorbs!
