Port Aransas

We have been in Port Aransas with some of our church friends for the last couple of days. Brynna has loved having lots of friends an "grown ups" around to play with. Lane has actually been doing pretty well for a brand new baby on his first vacation. Well, today he's been good. Yesterday Marti kid napped him to keep me from throwing him in the pool.

We've had a great time so far hanging out and getting to know some of the families in our Sunday school class that we didn't know very well before. Yesterday was chilly, so we stayed away from the beach for the most part. Today was perfect, and we spend a good chunk of the day down by the water. Here are a few of the shots we've gotten so far.



Here's Lane snuggled up to Aunt Marti after screaming his head off for Mommy most of the day. He actually fell asleep in her sling, and she carted him around all evening until baby Andy demanded Lane give his mommy back. Thank you Marti, I needed a serious break!



Brynna with some of her friends. She took the lead and asked/bossed everybody into holding hands.

Pastor Brian found a live sand dollar in the water. Here he is showing it to Phil and Cynthia (they have been our condo-mates for the trip).



I had no idea a live sand dollar looked like this, and I didn't know pieces could break off while they are still alive. Very cool.

Ok, we are so jealous. The only water we get to enjoy right now is what's falling outside. Looks like fun.

We enjoyed sharing the condo with y'all. Good to know other families like to rest when they can during the day!
