From early on in the pregnancy, Kevin tried to plan a babymoon getaway for the two of us to enjoy some child free time before our little guy arrives. At first he looked into warm beaches, like Mexico or Southern California where we could relax together. As the time got closer, childcare became an issue and our schedules filled up, we had decided on either going to Vancouver or Portland for a few nights to eat good meals and watched films.
The weather this winter has been so wonderfully warm and so Grandma Carol planned a second winter trip to the beach and our plan started to formulate. We have been sitting on a generous gift certificate for Bandon Dunes in Southern Oregon since our wedding 9 1/2 years ago and figured if Carol could watch the girls at the beach house, it might be a great opportunity to use it!
As the days grew closer, the weather report became better and better leaving us with a few 70 degree days of sun and sand. The Bandon Dunes resort was really comfortable and beautiful to explore. Kevin got in a round of golf, but mainly we got extra rest, ate some great meals, and explored the town of Bandon. It was perfect!
Having a few days alone together was wonderful! Pre-kids we had many beach trips together and so we just sunk back into that routine, devouring yummy seafood, taking walks on the beach and just being silly. It was cool to get our warm, beach getaway after all!
