Our Vacation - The Beach and the Shuttle Launch

On our first day of our vacation, we headed down to Cocoa beach for the day. The kids had a blast playing in the sand and the water, and then we headed out to find a spot to watch the Space Shuttle launch! It was an awesome experience, and I'm so glad that Clint suggested we do it. Hopefully Fisher will always remember seeing the rocket ship blast into space!



































































































































He was waving at the seagulls. :)






























































After happening upon a little mom & pop type of restaurant (that had delicious seafood!), we found the perfect little park to watch the launch. I'm sure people had been camped out all afternoon, but we still had a great view coming up about 45 min or so 'til countdown.















































It started out looking like a sunrise.










































I think it was about this high when the awesome rumble hit us. It was so amazing.
