Day at the Beach in Galveston

We met Paul, Denise, and Kristen at the beach in Galveston last Friday. Once Emma warmed up to the beach, we all had a blast. Unfortunately, Kristen wasn't feeling very well so I only got a few pictures of her. I was amazed at how much fun all the girls had in the water! We got there at 10am and left at about 4:30pm. The weather was perfect, and since P,D, and K were spending the night, we even got to take a dip in their hotel pool before we left! :) Good start to our summer!


Emma's mad about being on the beach

Lauren digs right in and has fun


Kristen and Kaitlyn with me out in the water


Lauren, still happy


Emma, still not happy


She kept on telling us she was ready to go home



Kaitlyn and Mommy



Kaitlyn, Lauren, and Kristen making sandcastles. Hmm, where's Emma?


Oh yeah, still not a happy camper "beacher."


Mommy pulls out the snacks, maybe that will help!


Lauren is convinced it's a great idea!


Holy cow, is Emma actually enjoying herself?!?!?!?!



And she's off!


Hard to get her on camera at this point


Lauren, still happy whatever she is doing!


Some shots of all three girls having fun! (Kristen was resting by this point.)

Kaitlyn's End-of-Year Party

Kaitlyn had her End-Of-Year Party and Awards this morning. I was able to attend as my playgroup friends watched the twins for me (and then the other set of twins I watch for a bit too!). They had an Aloha theme, and the kids all had a blast. Kaitlyn got two awards: Radiant Writer and Terrific All Around Student. Kaitlyn was so sad that I had to leave when it was over, and the parents of her good friend, Sarah, offered to take her for the rest of the day. She had a blast over there too, especially swimming in their pool!

Walking into the party with the LIMBO!
