Family Vacation, Visiting Cocoa Beach

Brett Higgins took us to Cracker Barrell this morning for breakfast.

I tried grits for the first time and think that they taste like my least favorite food in the universe, creamed corn. Cracker Barrell had the perfect breakfast, one of everything, ham, egg, sausage, baked & sugared apples, tasty bread and grits. We also drank a ton of sweet tea. Mmmm!

We stopped by the souvenir shops by Universal in search of some Grinch pajamas for Brett's niece. Since all the shops carry the exact same merchandise, they have HUGE Storefront displays to attract children that have a saved up allowance burning a hole in their pocket.

After nap time, we drove 45 minutes east to Cocoa Beach.

The water was very warm and the sand was sooo soft. Ahhh.
