Mike and I took the kids to Galveston on Friday afternoon. We only stayed one night because Mike had a lot of homework for his summer class. It took us 3 hours to get there instead of 1 1/2 hours due to traffic. After arriving at our "fabulous hotel"...(not close).....we walked down to the beach to let the kids run around a bit. Then we went to "The Rainforest Cafe" where we spent half of the kids college tuition...LOL! I am saying that because they sure know how to get you. There was an hour wait...but we knew that anywhere we would go we would have to wait. So in the meantime we decided to ride "The Rainforest River Adventure Ride" which was $6 a person for about 6 minutes. Then on the way out of the ride you step right into Build A Bear...how convenient!!!! We definitely spent a lot of money while waiting!
Saturday morning Jacob woke us up at 6:50 asking when were we going to the beach...of course! So we packed up and headed to the beach! The kids had a blast and so did mom and dad! The water is muddy and the beach is dirty...but it was fun while it lasted! Oh...and my camera broke while we were there. The lens shutter got stuck...so when I turned on the camera the lens would not stay open...so Mike told me to take the picture upside down and just rotate it when I loaded the pics on the computer. It worked!!!! The pics did not turn out great....but they will have to do....Enjoy the pics!

Jacob and Allyse will love it there...the beach is cleaner and water is much nicer!
Allyse, I love the hat on you! Jacob great job on the boogie board!
Sounds like fun! Hollyn L-O-V-E-S the beach. We took a trip to Galveston a few years ago and it's all she ever talks about when we say vacation these days.
