Galveston Two Times??? Why not!!

Well, the Stovall's invited us to the beach again for a friend get together celebrating Brayden's 6th birthday. The Hamilton's and the DeLaughter's also joined in on the festivities. Aimee actually had us all out to her in-law's beach-club type property. It was pretty cool! I have to say, Alan and I are blessed with some of the most amazing friends (even if they are all Aggies!) I adored getting to spend that kind of time with them. We started as 4 married couples and now have expanded to 4 married couples with 11 wild and crazy kids!! Now that is a lot!!! The kids were amazing and the time we spent visiting and playing was awesome! I think we should be required to do something that fun at least once every couple of months! We played at the beach all day, had lunch by the pool in some really cool cabanas, enjoyed birthday cupcakes, showered off, had dinner at Fisherman's Warf off the Strand, and then ended at our favorite candy shop. I was really, really proud of my kiddos...they went without naps and stayed out until after 11:00pm without so much as a whimper. They were fantastic and had such a blast!

Blake is a beach loving kid apparently! He couldn't get enough of it!
