We had our first beach vacation to Port Aransas, TX. We stayed at Port Royal resort in a beautiful condo right on the beach. There were Three HUGE swimming pools with a water slide and all the amenities you could imagine. We enjoyed it although Liam & I were sick the entire vacation with sore throats and a fever. I also wasn't feeling well with the pregnancy. But we made the best of it and enjoyed the beautiful weather and the beach. We were not impressed with the gulf. Lots of sea weed and debris and we didn't like that they allowed cars on the beach either. Florida beaches are much nicer. Liam enjoyed playing in the sand the most. He wasn't a fan of the waves because of the seaweed that kept coming in. Liam loved the beach though It was his first time ever seeing the ocean! We plan to make it a yearly vacation destination for our family in the future.
