Beaches, and Oysters, and Clams....OH MY!

After our grand day at beverly beach we stopped a t alocal crab shack in Lincoln City and boiught some fresh clams and oysters! The girls had never eaten these shell fish before and who would have known they would show us how much fun they could be! We made music with the clams, pinched things with them, fir them in our mouths, created works of art, and made silly faces with them! This was by far the best time we have ever had at the dinner table!
Poor Mikayla though....we just discovered she has allergies! (Not to the shell fish thank God! But he now has the "Lewis Allergies" those big red puffy eyes break my heart....
The mommy clam is talking to the baby clam apparently

Oh boy were we blessed with a GORGEOUS day at the beach today! Clear blue sunny skies and a fair wind. I couldn't help but take a hundred pictures because days like these at the Oregon coast are rare. :)

First Day at School!

Kealani started her first day of Pre-K and Mikayla started her very first ever, day of school in her Preschool class! Mikayla walked right in and had a seat, totally forgetting I even existed and Kealani wispered in my ear "Mom, please get outta here." My own 4 year old wanted me out!

So now I am sitting in my quiet house not quite sure what to do with myself....strange....
