Hitting the beach while it's still summer

We've had the best luck today, including finding this cute Port Aransas hotel that fit our budget and we didn't even know it had a kitchenette with a stove and a full-sized fridge.

Good thing we had a pork roast in our cooler and a bag of leftovers from this weekend's feast.

We bought a few supplies at the grocery store nearby: milk -- to go with the Lucky Charms the cleaning lady gave us (I promise it isn't as weird as it sounds.), a deli salad, assorted chocolates, butter (just in case) and plates and utensils.

You can imagine the fun we're having.















We're in the hotel now (which has a kitchenette but no dishes!), after a few hours playing at the beach while a storm came in. Now we get to watch Planet Earth and cook a pork roast in our tiny oven. Ian and I have decided it's the most fun little beach adventure we've been on in Texas.

Julian is on to this gratitude thing. He's playing phone with our (disconnected) hotel phone. Not sure who he's talking to, but the past few calls, he's ended with "Thank you for this trip!"
