Early Birthday for Abby

It wasn't quite Abby's second birthday, but it was close enough that we couldn't pass up the chance to have a little birthday party with her cousins!  Happy early birthday, Abby.  This was the first of several celebrations in honor of her birthday, so she was just getting the hang of it!




Dolphin Tour


One of the highlights of our trip was a dolphin tour in Corpus Christi Bay.  We spent part of the morning following a shrimping boat, searching for the dolphins who follow looking for a meal.  Though it took a while to find them, once we did, it was really fun to see them swimming all around the boat!















Movie Night


Pajamas, popcorn, rootbeer floats, a movie, and cuddling with cousins!

On the Beach













USS Lexington


We went back in time on the USS Lexington.  It was fascinating to explore the deck, climb tiny metal stairways, and see the captain's quarters and pilot room.

Spring on Mustang Island


Although we get to see Rachel's side of the family when we travel to Colorado, we've never been able to have everyone come to Texas at the same time.  So we were excited to have a little family reunion on Mustang Island, by Corpus Christi.  We all gathered to have lots of cousin fun, beach time, and more!
