Kiawah Island

After the 4th, Mike headed back to work and the boys and I took a trip to Kiawah Island to spend the rest of the week with my parents. It was our vacation spot almost every summer growing up, and it felt great to be back! I haven't been there in a few years (Mike and I went one spring while he was in grad school), so I'd started to forget just how beautiful it is. It took Grant a little while to warm up to the beach during the day (both boys loved it in the evening), but Nolan couldn't get enough. His favorite part was getting "blasted" by the waves, and he was also really excited to find a starfish! Of course they didn't mind being totally spoiled with attention from my parents either!
