We had been trying to coordinate a weekend with my parents all summer to make a trip to the beach for a night. One of my dad's customer's has just finished building a brand new house in Long Beach, WA, and offered to let us go stay out there if we were interested. My dad's birthday is in the last week of September and we decided to plan our trip for that weekend. We were kind of wondering if it was actually brand new, because usually at the beach the property is all taken, but when we got there we saw it was definitely brand new. It was beautiful and fully stocked and we had a wonderful stay!
The back of the house
The view from the backyard--if you look closely you can see the waves just over the hill. It was about a 5 minute walk to the beach .
The upstairs--kitchen, laundry room door on the left. There are also two bedrooms and two bathrooms upstairs.
Upstairs--living room off of the kitchen
Downstairs--past the kitchenette there is a bedroom and a bathroom

Carter was so happy to be at the beach...he was all smiles!

Having so much fun!
Our little picnic area. Carter wandered up there and was just playing by himself for a while. This section of the beach was so nice because there was NO traffic. I think we saw 2 cars the whole time and 2 other people. It was nice and private and relaxing!
Still smilin'!
Wandering on the beach
Ethan loves to dig holes that fill with water whenever we go to the beach. Then he likes to get his feet stuck in the mud. It's kind of become a thing he and Tristan like to do together.
Carter loved sitting in the big chair.
Being crazy!
It was so nice to sit and relax and play. On Friday night we did a steak and salmon dinner for my dad's birthday and had cake, too. Then we relaxed and watched a movie and headed to bed. The boys slept great thanks to all the fresh air and exercise they got.
Saturday morning we headed into town for breakfast and some sight-seeing. Then we headed back to the beach for lunch before packing up and hitting the road to go back home. We will definitely be visiting this beach house again next summer--and next time we will stay longer for sure!
