One picture I forgot to add. When we were looking for a spot on the beach we drove a little too far out and got stuck in the powdery sand. Luckily there were some guys with a big truck to tow us out.
We had a great overnight trip to the beach. The boys LOVE, LOVE, LOVE going there! They ask all the time to go back. Here they are enjoying the view from the hotel balcony.
And here is the jump session the boys had. Scroll down fast and you can see live action.

After jumping on the beds and looking out the balcony, we headed for the marina to eat some dinner. The boys loved looking at all the sailboats and watching the huge sea birds and pelicans.
We ate at Landry's Seafood, a restaurant in a converted boat right on the ocean.
Can you tell they were a little excited about the huge brownie sundae we got for desert?!
This is a result of a long day and too much brownie sundae. Joey's tummy was hurting too much for him to walk back to the hotel so he needed a lift from Dad.
The boys were fascinated with this art bus. In the front was a live band playing and the boys would stop dead in their tracks every time and just stare as it passed.
Checking out the water
All snuggled in. We blockaded Kimball in again with the ironing board, and Shamu acted as a great barrier reef between the two boys. Peter and I slept MUCH better this time time letting the boys share a bed. We decided it would be better for them to kick each other rather than us. Surprisingly they both slept really well.
The famous and much anticipated breakfast. The boys loved the Texas waffles, and we all loved the amazing view of the bay and sailboats.
Our favorite playground on the ocean. This is Peter trying desperately to spot his boys :)
Peter finally caught him
our camera takes great panoramic pics by automatically combining lots of pictures. We discovered how fun it was to get into each little picture.
Taking the ferry over to Port Aranssas. It is so fun to just drive your car up and head out over the water. You can get out of the car and watch the dolphins jump in the wake of the boat.
A huge ship we saw going through the pass
mud castles are so much fun
The dead stingray we found.
