The Beach is a B-E-A-uitful place!

Labor day weekend we planned a little family get away just the 3 of us. Although I was really wishing my parents might tag along just to have a nice family bonding time, it turned out really nice just being the 3 of us! Chris took off Friday and Monday so we dropped Butter off with the parents and we were south bound 45 by lunch time! Traffic was horrible, Im usually not one to get car sick but my anxiety was on edge and the stop and go traffic was about to make me go insane. Lets not mention miss priss in the back seat. Our last road trip she did so well, it was almost soothing for her driving 12 hours to Georgia but our 4 hour drive to Galveston, not so much. By the time we finally got to our room we unpacked and headed to sea wall to get something to eat (first real meal of the day :( ) Something about the ocean waves is so peacful. Saturday morning we woke up had a nice peacfull breakfast in our room that came with a mini kitchen... BONUS! watched some cartoons and got in our swim suits and headed to the beach... So much fun. Lilly was obcessed with the waves coming up on her and the sand/mud, she would have lasted for hours on end. There was this little girl who was quite annoying, I suppose it actually kind of sad when you think of it. Her young mother with 3 other kids was to busy sun bathing to play with her own daughter that she had to come try and drag my little kid around, Um no thank you! Other than her the beach was really nice, Chris even did his taditional cheetos to the sea guls.... scared the crap out of Lilly at first but she warmed up and tried feeding them her self. We built sand castels for lilly to destroy once her pretty blue eyes layed sight on them. Sadly the crazy wind slowed us down a little too. So we had delish Ice cream from downtown and then headed back to the room for a nap, that evening we went to Rainforest Cafe all for the Princess, We took a safari adventure ride and had a fabulous dinner, I pretty sure Lilly was in heaven because she was soooo good the entire time. We saw faces from her we have never seen before. There was some crazy storm coming in and the wind was INSANE.... if i didn't know better I would have said it was a hurrican! Sunday morning we grabbed some shipley's donuts and headed to the Deans house for a nice litte visit, Lilly feel in love with some pineapples thanks to aunt Belinda! then shortly after we headed to the Astros game. Chris wants to travel to all the MLB baseball stadiums when we travel and I thought it was a good idea! Lilly had a little accident due to a quick diaper change in the car- she really is too big for that :) but all in all we had a great time! Minute Made Field was extreamly nice to have AC because we have been to some Ranger games that were extreamly HOT HOT HOT! the energy in the stadium was a little sad... Lilly was boared out of her mind because there was no chants going on. After the game we were well on our way home to have a nice relaxing Labor day to our selfs!
