Sun, Sand and Space Travel



We decided to hit a more low key beach this year, so instead of heading over to Daytona (which, when I think of the things that go on there over spring break, I get the heebie jeebies), we opted for Cocoa Beach and the Cape Canaveral area. We were thrilled that a rocket launch was scheduled for the time around our visit, and really stoked about getting to watch the show. However, NASA, often without any real reason, will move launch dates. That was the case in our launch. I will be taking that up with NASA officials. Heads will roll.










It only took one mouthful of saltwater to lead to the constant state of "bubble in the mouth" for Kaelan. You can see the before shot....all smiles and teeth. But after a wave caught her off guard, she went for mouth closed look the rest of the afternoon. Seriously, we had to remind her to take breaths every once in a while.





20 feet from waves, but just to be safe, the bubble remains.





























I promise, I did play in the water for a while, but I then took my favorite spot on the beach...right on the warm sand, book in hand, cool drink with great entertainment over on the shoreline. The weather was absolutely perfect!





Cutest little mermaid I have seen!



We did Dad over with the Texas style beach look.





We stayed at the beach for a few days and explored the island and the Cape. We had a great time just relaxing and enjoying the beach.
