Sand and Sun Time

Both of our family's take beach vacations in the summer and this year they backed up to each other...soooo we had a nice loooong time relaxing, soaking in the much missed rays (last year we had to miss our coast trip since we were up north), and lots of visiting with the fam.

We headed to Rockport for Patrick's family vacay first.  We stay in a cute little beach house along a channel.  It rained quite a bit while we were there but it gave us a great excuse to be 100% lazy!  It was actually very peaceful listening to the rain fall.  Parker had a fun time playing with Thomas and Rebecca's new kitten Anne.    I am surprised that cat survived the weekend with those two!!  We spent one day at the beach, did a little fishing, ate at the Boiling Pot, and had a blast.

We spent one night in Corpus with just our little family before heading to the Island House for the annual Freytag 4th vacay.  We all went to Port A to see the firework show...Nana made picnic fajitas and the the kids decorated cookies.  We had six full days of sunshine.  Parker loved the beach and the pool!  He wasn't afraid at all and he kept eating the sand, weirdo :)

Too many pics so I made a smilebox...
