Sand Dunes

Another highlight of our trip was the day we went to the Sand Dunes. In order to get there, you have to drive along the beach for about 2 miles. We were slightly concerned about this but wanted to go to the dunes so we did it anyway. We drove on the beach, got to the dunes, played in the sand, rolled down the hills, and had a fabulous time. On the way out however, we got stuck, really stuck. The tide was on it's way in so we were all slightly concerned, especially my sister who didn't really want to loose her van to the ocean. We called a tow truck and 40 minutes later were safe on the real road. It was quite the adventure and I don't think any of us with drive on the beach anytime in the near future!

Another would be dune go-er also stuck. We weren't the only ones, just the first of the afternoon.

Hi Jaimee! It's been forever! I found your blog through Jenna's :). Looks like you guys had quite the exciting trip! How fun! You're little girl is adorable! We'll have to be blog buddies now since we never get to see each other. I'm thinking a big Hansen reunion is in order with all the cousins. We are just way too spread out and it has been way too long! Hope you guys are doing well!
