OCEAN SHORES, WA
May 4 – 6, 2018
FRIDAY, MAY 4
This was a non-workday for me, so we took the opportunity to visit Eric’s parents for a 3-day weekend. On the way to the beach, we stopped in North Bend, WA to fuel up. At a Starbuck’s, Todd was chillin’…
Next, we stopped at Vic’s Pizzeria (Olympia, WA) for a scrumptious vegan pizza and vegan calzone. This time we tried the Capitol Blvd location, located in a lovely forested neighborhood. We had plenty of leftovers to enjoy for days…
We arrived in Ocean Shores, got settled in, then splashed in the waves…
We had a lot of stuff to dodge on the beach (which had a certain beauty)…
SATURDAY, MAY 5
In the morning, we went to Damon Point beach. Todd agreed to wear sunglasses…what a breakthrough! [Actually we gave him no choice, but he didn’t fight it]. After beach time, we went shopping in town. Todd picked out a whoopee cushion.
In the afternoon, we rode our scooters. After that, we splashed in the ocean.
When we came inside, Todd fell asleep on the couch. I tried to wake him up in the evening, but he was OUT. Eric said, “We might have miscalculated not giving him a nap” 😀 He was carried to bed and never woke up until the next morning.

8:02 PM
SUNDAY, MAY 6
We were chased by the waves one last time before our journey home.
Darren and Sandie stopped by, and some great photos were taken. Todd napped in the car during the drive.
Goodbye, beach…until next time!
AUTUMN TRIP TO THE BEACH (OCEAN SHORES, WA)
OCT 20, 2017 – OCT 23, 2017
Todd’s first trip to Ocean Shores (8/10-8/15) must have been memorable, because he kept telling us he wanted to go back after we got home. At first, I figured it wouldn’t be until next Spring or Summer, but then I thought, “Let’s make it happen sooner!” I scheduled a personal day and off we went…
FRI OCT 20
We hit the road right after I got off work. Before the trip, I looked up vegan pizza options in Olympia, WA, and I found Vic’s Pizzeria (Westside location). Right on the menu they have Vics Vegan Calzone (“Vics Red Sauce with choice of Yellow or White Vegan Sauce, Spinach, and your choice of four toppings”). We didn’t order the calzone on this trip but I do want to try it next time. We did have some of their homemade vegan cheezy sauce on our pizza. The whole thing was delicious!
SAT OCT 21 – MORNING
This was a very wet and rainy day at the Damon Point beach…which suited Todd just fine since he loves to get his feet into water of any kind. He found puddles in the sand…cool! He thought it was hilarious when my sneakers sunk down like quicksand near that rock…
SAT OCT 21 – EVENING
In the evening, we visited Darren (Eric’s brother) and Sandie. Todd started off by doing some drumming with Sandie’s drum set.
Initially, Todd was a little nervous about the dog, Stella, but pretty soon they were great friends. Sandie instructed Todd to give Stella a toy so that she would drop the ball. Then Todd brought her every dog toy she has. Todd had so much fun trying to get the ball from Stella and then watching her go after it.
SUN OCT 22 – MORNING
We went back to the beach at Damon Point on Sunday. This time it wasn’t raining. Jeff (Eric’s brother) joined us, and then Darren and Stella showed up later. After playing with a stick that he called his Darth Maul lightsaber, Todd was set on splashing in the waves like we did in August. Devoted mama as I am…I chose to sacrifice warm, dry feet in order to make some more memories. According to him, none of the waves were “big enough,” and he could’ve splashed in those waves all day (Brrrrr!!!). Eric took some nice silhouette pictures.
Playing our game of “run from the waves”….
Family pics…
SUN OCT 22 – AFTERNOON
During Todd’s nap, Eric and I took turns going for a walk on the beach. Eric went with his dad. They snapped some pictures together and then Eric filmed the wind pushing against some beach foam. When they got back, I went for a brisk 30″ beach stroll to get some much-needed exercise! Finally, Eric’s mom made a pizza that was out of sight!
MON OCTOBER 23
We drove home and stopped at Thuy Pho for lunch and Casa Tapatia for dinner.
