We spent a couple days at Galveston on the beach. My cousin, Kim and her kids, Max and Spence joined us down there at their beach house. The first day we got there it rained on us quite a bit - didn't bother the kids one bit though. We played on the beach a little while in the rain and then headed for the house to do some indoor games. The next day was the best we could have asked for. It was very overcast, but no rain and no burning hot sun. It was perfect. Thanks to those who prayed ;-)
I think my kids could live on the beach. They all loved the sand and the water and all the creatures that live in both. I, on the other hand was very sick of having sand on every inch of my body and in everything I own. At night we grilled out and watched movies - after trying to catch those ghost crabs that run around after the sun sets - that was hilarious! Lane loved being able to drive us around in the golf cart. Scared the wee-ber-jeebers out of me!!! On the way home we stopped at Moody Gardens to see more marine animals at the aquarium. I was so glad that we didn't listen to the weather man and went ahead and went. Definitely well worth it.
