We went to Hilton Head Island for Labor Day with Chris's parents. This was Boston's first trip to the beach. After watching the waves roll in a few times, he said that the ocean looked like Diet Coke. I guess the bubbles on the sand kinda resembles Diet Coke. Boston cracked us up when he experienced his very first taste of ocean water. We were looking forward to his initial reaction, so we did not prepare him for the salty taste. Naturally, he was shocked and started spitting it out. When Chris asked him what the water tasted like, Boston replied, "It tastes like GROSS!!!" Too bad the ocean doesn't taste like Diet Coke.

Daddy being sympathetic to Boston's tummy ache.
Chris and I brought our bikes with us and enjoyed a LONG bike ride. We were so excited about how bike friendly the streets are. While exploring the island, we came across Christopher Drive and just had to stop for the photo op. It was an enjoyable ride, but someone paid the price with sore leg muscles the next day. (and that someone was not me) ;)
Chris and Boston getting silly with the crab legs. Bos loves to make funny faces. At least he's not camera shy...
Fresh crab legs is one of my top reasons for a vacation to the ocean. It's a must!!
Yummy ice cream at "Hilton Head Ice Cream". For such a unique little ice cream shop, I'm surprised that they couldn't come up with a name with a little more personality.

The whole gang at "The Crazy Crab". I love that Spanish Moss but it freaked Boston out when it was dark. It was funny. 
Gettin' CRAZY at The Crazy Crab.

Me and my little man. Although, he's not so little anymore. I can't believe that he'll be 3 next month!!
