Galveston

I am definately a beach person, so we have really enjoyed our new tradition of driving down to Galveston with friends and staying in a beach house. With the beach right out the back door, warm ocean water, boogie boarding, sand castles, catching sea creatures, collecting shells, and good company, it makes for a great weekend.


This is a picture of the Beach house we stayed in and a picture from the beach house of the ocean and beach.

On the first day we had some big waves which made boogieboarding a blast. The boys had so much fun looking for crabs and catching them, watching the little clams bury themselves under the sand, collecting shells, trying to catch these weird eel looking things, and boogie boarding. They would wake up early to get out on the beach and stay out as long as we would let them. I loved the convienience of having the beach right out the door, it really made nap time alot easier.

On our last night, the kids enjoyed Blue Bell ice cream and a balloon fight. It was so fun watching them laughing and having a good time. We let them stay up late since they were having too much fun and hoping they would crash on the way home.













Milan and Heath sunk their feet into the sand. This is what it would be like to be married to a shorter man. I'm not used to being taller than the guy.

I had so much fun with these two ladies, thanks Jennifer and Tanna.








Thanks Shumards and Petersons for the good times and for playing along with our practical jokes. It really was a lot of fun.This is a picture of the seagulls flying away after I ran toward them.
