This week we went on vacation to Isle of Palms, SC. It was the first family vacation for just Brandon, Grant and myself and Grant's first trip to the beach. He experienced the sand, ocean, and pool for the first time! We stayed in a beach front condo, which was the perfect location for access to the beach and pool. It took some time for Grant to get use to the sand at the beach, but he did warm up to it and enjoyed playing with his beach toys and walking on the beach. He didn't really like getting in the ocean, but did like the pool! We also took a trip to the SC Aquarium and he loved that! There were so many cool things to look at and a little toddler area for him to climb and play. We also went strolling at one of the waterfront parks and through downtown Charleston...Grant absolutely loves strolling and looking at new things! He did really well eating out at night, slept well, and did pretty good during the 4 hour car ride down and back. I have to say that vacations are very different now (there wasn't much resting and relaxing for me and Brandon), but we did have a great time and it is awesome to see Grant's reactions to new experiences!

It was very windy the first evening we arrived and went out to the beach...this is one of my favorite pics from the trip :)
"I'm ready for the beach!"
This tent was a lifesaver (thanks Aunt Kelli!)...it was so hot and it allowed Grant to have some shade to play!
Grant loved playing in the pool with Dad
We had a great time at the Aquarium!
