Grayson's First Beach Bash

In November, my parents graciously let us use their vacation week at the beach totally free to us!  This was our first family vacation as a family of four.  I use the vacation term lightly because vacation with kids is very tiring for parents.  But it was fun.  Jason took half days so he worked in the morning which worked out great because it took about that much time to get ready to get out for the day. November isn't prime to go to the beach but on the Sunday we were there, the weather was warm enough to break out the suits and hit the sand.  Spencer chased the birds and swam in the heated pool and Grayson enjoyed just being along for the ride.  We took Spencer to the aquarium and many outdoor playgrounds.  We even saw Santa-but of course that didn't go well for Spencer.  Here are some pics from our week.

Here is a pic on the windy beach:
