It was over 80 degrees here today and supposed to be the same tomorrow. 

No knitting today, for some reason, I was just wiped out.  I went to first service at church today.  Hubby and kids were on the worship team this week…it’s the first time back after 3 Sundays being gone on vacation!  I go to first service but stayed halfway through 2nd just standing outside visiting with a friend.  Fun.

The little imp and I drove through McDonald’s to get him something to eat and we came home to watch the rest of the Mariner’s game.  hmmmm…we finally won one!  I’m not a fair-weather fan, but it was nice to get a win after 9 losses!  Not sure what happened there, we were on a roll for quite awhile.  While I watched the game, I attempted to remove my nail tips I had put on for the wedding.  I had them filled twice and they were just too thick to be able to use my computer or much else without being a bit of a hassle.  I got them off but my nails look like I bite them…not too bad but not too great.  I definitely will get them again some day and maybe next time I’ll let them take them off for me.  lol

I asked if we could go for a drive since it was so beautiful out, hubby was helping #1 son put speakers in his van.  By the time he was ready to go, I had fallen asleep.  We did drive to the beach, though.  Just the 2 of us.  #1 son took the little imp to get a hair cut.  His girlfriend is a hair dresser and she bought him some gel and taught him how to do his own hair.  Cute.

Most of the time if we get a warm day here, the beach is freezing but not so today. 

It was calm and warm.  We drove on the beach for awhile and then when we came off the approach,  we saw deer in the dunes but I couldn’t get a picture….just a few feet up the road, look what we saw.

There were 2, the other one was already off the road and they were in no hurry to get out of anyone’s way.  I forgot to mention that a few weeks ago when I was downtown at my shop, in the middle of the afternoon I saw a deer run by on the sidewalk!  It was so scared and sliding on the sidewalk, I have no idea how it had come from the direction it had come on a busy street coming from the busier street.  It turned the corner and since I was heading out to my car, I drove around the block but it was gone.  We’re a few blocks from the river going the other direction but this poor thing was just lost and scared.  We see them in our neighborhood quite often, too.

We drove up the coast a few miles.  It was just too pretty.

We had to get home, though, because the little boy was being delivered home and we’ve been pushing our luck lately with getting to get away for a few hours here and there.

I guess I should let you see the new haircut!

Isn’t he just the happy camper?  Believe it or not, this is an attempt to smile.  lol

    Can you believe this awesome weather at the beach! The pictures are beautiful, looks like they could have been taken in the little town where I live. I think I might know those deer. The ones that come eat all my pretty flowers! Love the happy camper picture, Rick got the same haircut!

    Poor guy! He looks like he is disappointed it took you so long to get home and take his picture of his new hair cut! :o ) You did have a beautiful day. I’m glad you got to get away with hubby for awhile. I hope you have a nice week at work and not too much re-entry stress!

    The scenery is truly beautiful. Tell the little guy that his haircut looks really sharp!

    Have a wonderful week!

    Beautiful pictures! The beach looks amazing!

    We’ve had some pretty chilly weather around here. This morning when I left for work it was again down to the 30’s!
