Getaway for Mother's Day

 For Mother's Day this year, my sister had a fantastic idea!  That the three of us (she, myself and our Mom) would take a day and "getaway" for Mother's Day!  We decided to go to Lincoln City Oregon.  The weather was 70 degrees with a lite breeze.  It was perfect.  We hit up the Outlet malls there, and did some shopping.  I was actually amazed with myself.  We didn't go into a single kids store, and I didn't spend any money on the kids--which is HUGE for me! 
Afterwards we got gigantic ice cream cones, and then headed to Moe's.  Why we thought that we could keep eating after the ice cream I'll never know, but we stuffed ourselves on fried Halibut, french fries, fried cod, calamari and clam.  And of course we had to have some of their famous clam chowder.  Seriously......what were we thinking?!?!!? 
I had to take this picture next to the Mermaid for Ashley (since she's obsessed with The Little Mermaid right now)....we were cracking up at how 'large' her boobs were.  It was hard to get a shot without revealing them!! :)  
So, after we were so sick we wanted to puke at Moes, we strolled out onto the beach for a nice walk.  Got a ways out and sat down and talked for a while.  It was really nice just hanging out together.  Afterwards we thought we'd catch a movie, but there wasn't anything playing we wanted to see.  So we went in search of a nail salon instead!  Kristi and I got pedicures!  It was really fun too cause the chairs were massage chairs!!!  There are some pictures somewhere of me hiding my face in a magazine cause my feet were so ticklish!  I was doing all I could to hold still while he scrubbed my feet.  

Even after they had finished our toes....Kristi and I just kept sitting in the massage chairs....Ahhhhhh...so relaxing. 
Then we headed home.  We were pretty tired.  But it was a fun time, and certainly a tradition we want to continue every year!!!!  AWESOME!
