Galveston

Garrett loved collecting seashells.
Trying to jump the waves.
Having fun in the water.
Gaitley loved the ocean.


Gaitley and Jeran.

We took the kids to Galveston over the weekend. We had a wonderful trip! We drove into Santa Fe on Friday night and stayed with Josh and Jennifer Butler and got to meet their sweet baby boy, Jeran. Garrett was a little disappointed when we pulled into their driveway because he thought we were going to the beach, not somebody's house. He woke us up bright and early on Saturday and was ready to go. We played at the beach on Saturday and swam at the hotel pool. This is exactly what Garrett had in mind for a vacation. He was wiped out and fell asleep at 7 on Saturday night. Gaitley went to sleep shortly after, so Britt and I had a nice relaxing evening with no computer. We headed back down to the beach first thing on Sunday and then it was time to come back home. We told Garrett it was time to go home and he said, "but this is our home." I think he would move there in a heartbeat. Overall, it was a great trip. Both kids played hard, loved the water and slept well. We will definitely start doing this every summer.
