I have been daydreaming about this day since I found out I was pregnant- packing up Lucy and taking her on a hike. And while I am in love with the ocean, I might be just as in love with the forests that tower over the ocean here on the Oregon Coast. There is something magical and amazing about the fern lined trails that twist and turn through miles of enormous trees that seem to touch the sky and I couldn't wait to share it all with Lucy! It was a short hike and despite muddy trails, Lucy's first trek into the forest lived up to all my daydreams.
What a perfectly beautiful day to wrap Lucy in! She is adorable!!!
