Galveston, Oh Galveston!

Darren, Ava, Granny, Pops and I took a little mini vacation down to Galveston this weekend.  We hit the Strand, hotel pool, Moody Gardens and of course the beach.  We all had a really good time and despite it raining one afternoon, we managed to enjoy our 2.5 days there.  We even sang a ridiculous Galveston, Oh Galveston song like 1000 times and never got over how funny it was to hear Ava sing it. Oh and we ate out -- a lot!  Thanks G&P for coming along with us...it was really fun.

  

The 2nd day there, we were able to meet up with Michelle, AJ & baby Jack at Moody Gardens to do the Butterfly exhibit (kind of lame) and the aquarium (everyone's faves: sea lions and penguins).  They just happened to be in Galveston the same weekend so it was nice to catch up (and finally meet Jack!)

Here is Ava & AJ posing in the Butterfly garden.

Me & Michelle.  It was so great seeing you M and your boys.  Thanks for coming to meet us!
