Myrtle Beach

We had some surprising 80 degree weather over spring break so we set out for 3 days at Myrtle Beach.





The simple things I will remember forever or maybe just for next time: Leo hates the feeling of sand on his feet and insisted on wearing his tennis shoes the whole time. We found out that Rose is quite a beach girl, content to play in the sand and water for hours. We found a fun little pizza place that couldn't be more conducive to small children which ironically was called East of Chicago Pizza. On your way to the shore there is a welcome center that loads you up with as many coupon a couponers heart could desire. I think we went to 50 of the 100 surf shops and we finally found our fav. We took Rose to Build a Bear last year for the first time and thought this year we would let Leo try. He picked the absolute ugliest "bear?" in the whole workshop, a horned owl, whose special feature was that its head could do a complete 360. We laughed but proceeded to the line where Leo decided not to go through with it because it scared him. It was a HOOT!
