greatest hits: port aransas

best ben quote of the trip:  "daddy, i thought the ocean was blue, but i guess it's just gray".

that's what we get for not driving to florida.  but to us, a beach = vacation, whether the sand is white or muddy brown.  the kids fell in love with the gray ocean and their daddy and i even managed to relax a little.

i cooked (we had a working kitchen!), we did laundry (we had a washer and dryer actually hooked up!), we played, we walked to the beach, we swam, we slept in a seperate room from our children (say what?) and chris and i sat up every night after the kids went to bed and talked.  simple as that.  you don't need turquoise water for that kind of goodness.

here is my photo dump.
