Galveston Trip 2013

It has become a bit of a family thing for us to go to Galveston during the summer lately.  Having little ones, I don't want to get on a plane with them quite yet and this is easy and fun for us.  The kids love it and we love just having the 5 of us on this trip.  A lot of people don't like Galveston but we don't care.  We are together and we have fun....that's all that matters to us!

We rented a newer beach house this year in Crystal Beach - Casa Del Sol.  Perfect size for our family.  Lola discovered a lot this trip.  She got into everything....pots, seashells, magazines.  The boys loved it too.  It had a big firplace area they loved jumping off of.  We went to the beach almost every day until Lola got a bad diaper rash and we took a break 1 day.  We ate at Bubba Gumps, Rainforest Cafe, Fudruckers and Stingarays.  We ate breakfast and lunch at the house, took great naps and did lots on the beach.  We flew kites, built sandcastles, played in the water plenty and took it easy.  I even got a few morning runs in...loved it!

We loved the Pleasure Pier this year.  We enjoyed it so much, we went twice.  The boys rode bumper cars, trucks, tea cups and got dad on the log ride.  I couldn't believe they did that.  They had a blast.  I loved watching it all with my Lola Bug.  We also got to ride a little ride at Rainforest Cafe.  That was a great place.  The big gorillas scared Jake into eating his whole meal.  We told him they were going to get him if he didn't.  Thank goodness I took some pictures on my phone because my camera deleted all my good pics.  I got some great pics anyways.  Enjoy
