Memorial Day Weekend






Memorial Day weekend starts the summer and we usually spend it at the beach.
South Padre Island
And good news... No oil!
In months or years to come, when I look back over my blog, I will wonder "what in the world does that mean?" Then, I will remember of the most horrible and disasterous oil spill of American history. Thousands of barrels of oil are spilling out into the waters of the Gulf of Mexico as I am typing... And the Louisiana shore line is being attacked by this escaping oil. The ocean, fish, eco system, and life as the "Louisiana people who live and work off the waters" know it, will not be the same for a LONG time.
Not to make light of that situation, but this blog is about us, so here we go...
Our weekend at the beach has been full of ocean, sand, pool, sunscreen, and lots of seafood (for us adults). Lily and Morgan have enjoyed their playtime at the beach.
The schedule of our vacation days have gone as the following... We started our days with an early morning dip in the ocean, once the girls had enough of that we headed to the pool. We finished up there then came inside for lunch and naptime for the girls. Today, the husband and I were able to spend some nice, quite time on the beach while the girls slept with Nana nearby listening for them to wake up. After naps it is round two at the beach and pool. This is followed by bath time and out to dinner! We've visited Daddy's once and Blackbeard's twice for our weight in yummy seafood!
Thanks to Papa and Nana for a fun family weekend!!!
