While Rachel was home visiting, we decided to take Nathan to the ocean for his first time. Rachel loves the ocean, so I think she's been waiting to be able to take him for awhile. Nathan and I spent the night at my parent's the night before, then packed everything up in the car, stopped to pick Rachel up at her parent's house, then headed on out. Nathan did great in the car, sleeping most of the way. I don't think I've ever been to Ocean Shores when it is sunny, so all I was hoping for was no rain. I really don't like getting soaked! I got my wish. It was a bit chilly as we expected, but it didn't start to rain until we were just getting ready to leave.
We had such a blast playing in the sand, chasing the seagulls, and walking around the town. Nathan loved to use the shovel to dig in the sand. I showed him how to run after the seagulls to make them fly away which he thought was hilarious. We also showed him how to run away from the waves, so we didn't get wet. It was an awesome day, and I was so happy we were able to spend some time with Rachel. We headed back home that afternoon. Nathan was so good, sleeping most of the way home too. I'm sure we wore him out!

Not sure he loved the crab hat, but he sure looked cute
