Holly Beach

Every summer our family goes out to Holly Beach on the Hood Canal. Holly may not seem like much to the onlooker, but to our family it is a little piece of Heaven. My mom has been to this cabin since she was nine-years-old and each of us kids in the Grant household has been each year since birth (give or take a few years in there). This place holds so many memories for us. Going back there every year makes it seem as if time stands still.

In recent years, our family has grown quite a bit. What began with 5 people staying the night out there has become 13! The little two bed cabin has been extended out into the yard! It's seems a bit more like camping now, but we don't care. We cherish this time every year.

Here are some special moments from Holly '09 which also happens to be Jaxon and Owen's first year.


They're just brimming with excitement on the ferry. Can't you tell?

Time at Holly is spent fishing, snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, and the like! The boys found lots of treasures...


The cousins had a great time together!








The fab 5...

Whose kid is that throwing the fit in this picture? Seriously, where is his mother?




Like father like son...can't go anywhere without his cell...




Some more pics and adventures from Holly to come...
