Ocean Escape
Things really haven’t slowed down much after the holidays and after a couple of 60 hour work weeks I decided it was time to grab Jess and Jude and get the heck out of town. So we went northward to the land of Oregon and a wee coastal town called Brookings. It’s been a really mild winter so far and we were blessed with some nice weather so Jude had his first beach excursion. It’s still pretty cold though, and after being bundled up Jude ended up falling asleep and missing most of the trip. There’s something about the beach that centers both Jessica and myself and we had a great time exploring the tide pools and praying together as we walked. As for Jude, he’ll have more time at the beach in the future.
The two nights spent in Brookings went by too fast but it was so good to get away from the distractions of home and just chill.
Here are a few pictures from our trip!

Brookings is great! Did you stay in a yurt? It has the closest Fred Meyers to Eureka, so that puts it on the map.

I’ve heard good things about Yurts but we stayed at a place that my Dad and Stepmom have.

Couldn’t get enough of the beach when I was in California for the holidays. Now I can’t get any at all…
