Cannon Beach

So this last weekend, Rob and I enjoyed some great sun at Cannon Beach. We wanted to share some pictures. On Friday, we checked in at our hotel and then walked the beach down to the little city for a bite to eat. On Saturday, we drove to Tillamook and toured the factory, sampled some great cheese and curd, and couldn't leave without buying ice cream cones--white licorice for Ann and mint chocolate chip for Rob. We also took some pictures with a couple of cows. I kept begging Rob to go and stand over by this colorful blue bull (it matched his polo shirt), but he wasn't too thrilled. Finally, after begging, he agreed. Then, I stood by the traditional bovine to have my picture taken. I decided to stand by the calf instead of the big cow where someone else was snapping a picture. It wasn't until the car that we checked the picture and enjoyed a good laugh. Thanks Rob! ;) I guess that's what I get for begging him to have his picture taken. Later that afternoon we enjoyed some R&R on the beach--Rob went for a run while I started on one of 3 novels for school. On Sunday, we attended a Seaside Ward where there were many visitors for the weekend. It was an enjoyable testimony meeting. Later that evening, we bundled up for a bonfire on the beach where we roasted smores and drank sparkling cider. Robert is quite the romantic! It really was a great time and unforgettable. We couldn't recommend our hotel more!!Enjoy the pictures! :)

Sounds like such a fun weekend!!! I am jealous! How fun for you guys. The hotel does look incredible, the smores on the beach sounds nice. I just love the beach and ocean and from the day we got to spend at Cannon Beach over the Fourth of July, Cannon Beach seemed like a charming little place that I would love to visit again. I'm glad you had fun!
