Goin' Back to Galvey

We headed to Galvey this past weekend for some fun in the sun. Scott's work sent him on a recruiting job, so we took advantage and went with him! :) We stayed at the Hilton, which was a-w-e-s-o-m-e. We would never get to stay there on our dollar. The boys LOVED the beach. We hadn't been back in six years (since we moved), and they have really cleaned it up. It is actually a pretty nice place to visit now. We got to see some good friends while we were there, too.

Snuggling up on the way there.

This might be my favorite picture of ALL time!
They were hilarious when a wave came. They ran screaming the other way! It was so entertaining to watch.

Bryce does this new hand on the hip pose that completely wears us out. Anyone who knows him is laughing right now. :)

This is what I go to the beach for. I love burying my feet in the sand. I'm sure I'll have some type of toe fungus next week...

And, next we have the hand on the hip again. This is at the aquarium at Moody.

There is not a smile in this one from Bryce b/c he was mad about something. I can't remember what, but I love this picture because there is no hip action. We took this while we were waiting outside to go back into the building after the fire alarm went off!

We caught them feeding the penguins. The boys loved it!

I thought of my sister during this part. Being surrounded by fish on all sides is not a position she would want to be in.

Don't they all three look thrilled to be in the shark cage?

eek

This is a picture of our old apartment in Galvetrez.

Here is our second apartment in Texas City.

We met up with our good friends, Kristin and Lance and their kids in Kemah. They've changed Kemah so much, and I still love it.

Here we are about to ride the train.

I accidentally held my purse over my big fat arm.

Kristin and Lance thought the train was scary.

We also went to the beach on day #2. We tried to make a sand castle but failed miserably.

I was actually supposed to be packing up the room to check out while Scott was working. Um, we found more fun things to do instead.

After checking out of the hotel, we had some time to kill, so I took the boys to the Rainforest Cafe.

Some nice lady asked if I wanted a picture with the boys.

I was completely shocked that he took a picture with this dude. He told me later that he also told the frog a joke. I missed that one.

They had a Build a Bear in the restaurant. Bryce had his red eyed tree frog dressed up like a cheerleader before deciding he'd rather have a boy one. Whew.

After that, we went to The Strand to shop. Bryce decided he was tired and climbed into the storage part of Brayden's stroller. Super.

We also got to stay a night with Brad and Jenny. We ate at one of our favorite places, too! All in all, it was such a great trip!!
