This year for Meemaw and Mamoo's Easter Break the family vacationed in Aptos. We had such a great time at Hidden Beach last year, we decided to do it again!
This is the walk that we took every day (ok multiple times a day) to Hidden Beach. Just up the hill from this spot is a playground that Jax and Camren frequented as well.
The weather was gorgeous and our days were filled with baseball on the beach, running in the waves and sand castle building.
Technically, the majority of construction done was on ramps and race tracks for the kids sand cars...but sand castles just sounds so much more nostalgic than race tracks! ;-) Also built was a baseball luge type of track that had a tunnel under a sand berm and everything! Jax loved it. Camren just really loved stuffing sand in her pockets. Which I'll consider a huge improvement over stuffing her cheeks!
These tired kiddies generally hitched their rides home! Playing in the sun and sand proved to be exhausting business.
On our final night the group took a trip to the Santa Cruz Beach Board Walk. This year, Jax and Camren were old enough to ride the kiddie rides! They had a blast "driving" the cars.
Jax took his driving so serious! Even turning the wheel in the direction that the car was "turning" He posted up like a cool guy as soon as his seat belt went on.

And what's a trip to the Board Walk with out playing some carnival games? Near the kiddie rides, they have games just for kiddos like Jax and Camren (and B and Tia and Daddy and Meemaw and Mamoo). This one was a huge Go-Fish game that everyone had a blast playing and winning toys!
This vacation has quickly turned into one of our favorite destinations. Such a relaxing week...This Mama can't wait to go back!
