Vacation Part 4 - Palm Beach

We went to Palm Beach a couple of times. It was good for the kids because it had lots of sand and not too deep of water.  It also has a couple of water slides.

Mission sandcastle:

Uh Oh! Where's Drew?

Ashtyn had to transport a lot of water.  Since there are no waves or tide, the sand was really dry!

Drew isn't partial...he'll eat the sand pretty much anywhere!

She just couldn't be left out of getting buried!

Nighty night

Vacation Part 3 - The Aquarium

We went to the Aquarium at Moody Gardens.  Ashtyn really liked watching the penguins since she has learned about them at school.

UhOh! Daddy and Ashtyn are in a shark cage...not sure Mommy likes this too much!

There were a couple of divers in one of the tanks.  Ash was pretty interested in them since Gram and Grandpa love to scuba dive.  The woman diver took interest in Ashtyn, too!

Vacation Part 2

After a full day, we went to Keemah to have dinner with some of Daddy's friends.  Then we went to pet the rays.  Check out the food they eat!!

Daddy is a scardy cat!

Ashtyn held the fish like she was supposed to, but wouldn't go near the water with her hand!!!

Vacation Part 1

We headed from Nana and Poppie's house to Galveston for a few days.  We decided to take the scenic route that involved the ferry.  We had to wait quite a while on the ferry, so Ashtyn and I took a little walk.

Drew drove the car a little bit while we were waiting.

Windy ferry!!!

Our first full day of vacation, Aunt Andi met us and we went on a boat tour and saw some dolphins.  Too bad we weren't quick enough to get any pictures of the dolphins!!!

Drew took advantage of this time to sneak a nap.

After lunch, we headed to the beach for the first time.  This was the first of many "tastes" of sand for Drew.  You would think we don't feed the kid!

Ashtyn just lit up at the beach!  She loved playing in the sand the most.

Silly Daddy!

Ashtyn and MaKenna had fun playing together

What a good big sister...pushing her brother

This is the best I could get of all of them together!  Quite a challenge

Nana just loves that Ashtyn plays tea party.  She drank a LOT of coffee and tea over the weekend!

Thanks for having us!  We can't wait to see you again!

Love you all!!!
