Cannon Beach, Oregon

I recently returned home from a trip to Portland, Oregon and Cannon Beach, Oregon. It was little Miss Sofia's first time playing at the ocean and she was in LOVE. I have never seen any one roll around in the sand with such joy and contentment. When we arrived at the Pacific Ocean on the cold and breezy day she ran ahead of us and we had to stop her from running into the cold, powerful waves.

There was a small inlet of water left behind by the tide that Sofia played in after we enjoyed a perfect sea lunch (a whole crab and clam chowder). We filled our bellies and the sun came out to greet us at as we splashed in the water and frolicked in the sand.
