Girl's Beach Trip

This year a group of us girls decided to rent a beach house in Lincoln City for the weekend. We had a fun time being together and hanging out. The house itself wasn't all that grand, the beds were rock hard and old! But we made due with what we had and had a great time there!! We started the weekend off with a drive to Tillamook Cheese Factory. We went through the little tour because Marie nor Kari had ever been there? What? I know, we go there almost everytime that we make a stop at the beach! Fresh Tillamook cheese and ice cream is the best! I bought lots of cheese curds and enjoyed a tillamint and peppermint candy waffle cone! YUMMY! We got to Lincoln City right when it was time to check in to the house! Great timing!! We got all settled into our rooms and did some talking and then all decided to go to Mazatlan for dinner. It wasn't how I remembered it at all. I wasn't impressed with the food at all. The enchilada sauce tasted like tomato sauce. So, needlesstosay, I ate a lot of chips and salsa. After dinner we went back to the house and just sat around and talked. We were all very tired and turned in relatively early that night knowing that Saturday was going to be a busy day. We started Saturday off with Chorizo and egg burritos cooked by yours truly. YUMMY!! Then Marie, Shaye, Kari and I headed over to the outlets. We found some smokin' deals there!! We found so many good deals in fact, that we ended up going back a 2nd time later in the day for some more! We cut our day trip a little short because we were all getting hungry and wanted to eat lunch. We headed down to Mo's for lunch. The wait wasn't bad and we enjoyed some yummy food and good company. As we were sitting there I was staring out the window and saw something moving on the beach, taking a 2nd gander I noticed there were camels on the beach. We didn't go for a ride because we got distracted by the gay pride rally that was going on next door. We had a good time there...We all got air brush tattoos of stars. Different places, different colors. We watched them do their impersinations on stage and had a good time. After were done there we decided to walk main street Lincoln City into the little shops. It was the first time that I had walked that stretch and we had a good time. Bought some fudge and some sugar rock suckers for the kids!
Saturday night we had spa night after we went to dinner at Gallucci's which was nasty btw and stopped for Cold Stone on the way home! Nothing better than Peanut Butter Perfection in a waffle bowl! And they actually had pb ice cream which was awesome! I gave Kari and Sarah hair cuts and Shaye brought stuff to do facials for those who wanted it. Don't we look HOT!! It really is an awesome facial and leaves your skin feeling silky and soft! Sarah gave us all foot massages, which felt fantastic. We stayed up WAY to late!!! After we decided to go to bed around 2ish we sat and talked in the room(Kari, Shaye, Marie and I) until 5:30 in the morning. We had a great time. It wasn't so awesome when we had to wake up at 8:30 to get the house ready to go!! We got to spend about a 1/2 hour on the beach that day and it was delightful. The weather was perfect which doesn't happen very often at the coast. We all wished we had one more day to just relax and hang out on the beach! Next year!!

Thanks for a wonderful time ladies and friends!!!

Thanks Kari for putting the mosaics together, I'm too lazy to download mine and make them!!
