Our Family Vacation to Galveston

Oh! We had so much fun on our beach vacation. It was a short one, but much deserved! The kids had lots of fun fishing. I'm going to just post pics the rest of this post. Maybe a comment or two...

Our first day there.

Eating at "Shrimp and Stuff"

Oh my gosh! The best gumbo I've ever had!

The state park area of the beach! I didn't take a pic, but there was a sign that said, "beware of poisonous snakes"!!!

Cutest crabbie ever! There were hundreds of them!

First catch by Nic.

Nic being silly with his first catfish catch.

Someone had to take a pic for me! LOL!

Me and my Honeybear!

We caught a SHARK!!!

Just kidding! Honeybear caught a catfish! Isn't my HB a stud-muffin? Well, to me, I mean.... :-)

Elijah is in AWE!

Elijah finally overcame his fear of touching big fish.

Someone liked the mud too much.

Whereas, Evan does not fear anything!

Nic being proud of his catch!

Natalee caught all of these "hermies" so we could play with them.

Cute little booger!

When seagulls attack; especially after you feed them shrimp bait. Ha! Ha!

Being dorkalufaguses!! I know, not a word.

Nate skim boarding.

It was beautiful there during the sunset.

The Pleasure Pier, as they called it. Looks like a carnival.

Ummm...this place has like the best fried shrimp! We went back twice. It's just a little "hole in the wall" place. Those are always the best!

On our way heading home, stopping at the Kemah Boardwalk. Love his big smile!

Nic's favorite thing the whole trip. He was like a boy in the candy store feeding these stingrays. He did NOT want to leave. Silly boy!

Checking out the gator!

There were hundreds of catfish by this restaurant! It was insane!

Some squid at the seafood shop we stopped at! Yummy!

And of course, we cannot forget Mr. Sam Houston himself.

Whew! Anyway, we had lots of fun! Hope you enjoy looking at the pics! Instagram is my best friend!
