Lincoln City Kites

On Saturday we ventured an hour and a half away to the gorgeous Oregon coast! There was a kite festival in Lincoln City that we have been excited about going to for the last three weeks. It had been raining all day before, and even on the drive there, but once we arrived there was perfect sunshine.

Talmage got his feet wet in the cold ocean water and sand and he LOVED it. He is a total beach bum. He's already asking when we get to go to the "BEESH" again :D

The kites were AMAZING, and we got to see some really cool kite fliers do their thing. This guy was my favorite- he had a really fast and zippy kite that made a loud noise as it flew by!

After we left the shore, we walked around the main streets and wandered in and out of shops. Most of them were really tacky...haha...and I had to go into a bar to make a bottle for Charlotte. Good times. We did end up finding some pretty good saltwater taffy though.

Today the kids were finally feeling good enough to go to church and stay the whole 3 hours- how nice!
