A beach trip has been in the back of our mind for a while now. We’ve been craving the beach, sand, and sunshine and we finally made it work this weekend! The Underly and Warnock family made it happen! It was memorial weekend (which we usually don’t go to places like this on busy weekends but it was the only weekend we had open) After Cecily’s dance recital (Really, who plans the recital on memorial weekend)
Do NOT get us started about that again…
But after the recital, we had everything packed and headed on the road to Galveston! We got in at about 10pm and stayed up and talked and laughed till about midnight.
Oooooooh, so late huh!
Once we settled down for bed, Jake pulled the covers down to get in bed and found something
very,
very,
disgusting.
Something caught his eye that was in the sheets.
Please keep in mind that we have had gross hotel expereinces in the past.
You are welcome to read my old post of "Don't let the bed bugs bite."
Yes, it is real if you are wondering.
So anyway,
he picked it up for a closer look and it appeared to be a mans huge toe nail, along with several black hairs in the sheets.
Does that totally gross you out?
We figured that maybe the sheets were not changed and the bed was just re-made. Makes me sick thinking about it, again. What should we expect though… The only place that wasn’t 300 a night was a Microtel, 2o min away from the beach.
YOu may be thinking to yourself, Well duh...
Its a Microtel!
But... They still should hold a level of cleanliness.
At least change the sheets people! I mean REALLY?
On Sunday, we got up early, had breakfast and heading for the beach. We spent all day there… Brought food in a big cooler and the kids played and played till they couldn’t take it anymore.
Jake was being a tease and throwing seaweed and mud at the kids, so it soon became a seaweed/mud fight. View pictures below, I have a few action shots!
The kids found jellyfish that had been washed up from the ocean that were in the sand. (Scary) Sophie got stung by one but she was ok. Have never seen one of those close up, it's wild.
No one had to urinate on her thumb or anything. (You do know that's a myth right?)
The kids made sand castles and just about everyone got severely burned. Whining and Peeling days after the beach!
We had dinner at our favorite restaurant, Lupe’s Tortilla and the next day, went to Hillary’s pool.
We had a blast this weekend!!! (Wish you could have been there huh?)
Charlotte LOVED the beach. She played in the water, ate sand, picked up cigarette butts, got a little sun tan, and just enjoyed the day altogether!
These two below were getting a little close for words! Cecily was rubbing ice cubes all over his chest... And Sam was obviously liking it! I think we need to have a talk with her. So CUTE!
Flying seaweed!
Love this little baby
Sister Underly working hard as a grandma :)
Ok so long story short, I saw this hottie 2 years ago right here at the beach and he walked by me and said "Hey beautiful mother", so the Howland's and us always laugh about that. Well, lucky me, I saw the dreamboat again. Same black Speedo, same leather-y skin, and same bleached long hair. It was a good day!
