Galvaston Vacation: Day Three

Monday morning the girls were ready for the beach!  As soon as breakfast was eaten they were in their swim suits and ready to go!  We got out to the beach around ten.  Turns out the beach wears the little stinkers out and they actually slept past seven! 

There was no hesitation to get in the water for either girl.  They ran right in and had a blast!



There goes Ava...

After some frolicking in the surf we all did a sea shell hunt, and then come back to play in the sand.  Turns out the ocean air and wind work wanders for cleaning out Ava's sinuses.  After about an hour on the beach, she craweled up in my lap and said she was done.

We held her off long enough for the girls to go fill their bottles with sand from their first trip to the beach.  You can tell by the look in Ava's eyes that she is exhausted!

A quick bite to eat and baths and it was time for some nice long naps!  After naps we headed out to Moody Gardens.  I'll have another post on that...the girls loved it!  We finished up there and headed to Fish Tales for some yummy dinner.  The girls were in awesome moods and we were early enough that we didn't have to wait for a table.



After dinner we headed back to the condo. We decided to walk out to the beach to check on a sand castle that a professional guy had been working on that morning. It wasn't as impressive as we had imagined, but it was still pretty neat.

We had a little time to kill before we tried to get the girls to bed.  Uncle Danny's time share had a play ground and mini golf course.  The girls played a bit on the play ground and we decided to show them how to play mini golf.  It was the fastest round of mini golf we have every "played."

Keith showed the girls hit the ball.

 

After the first hole, Ava took it upon herself to make sure the ball made it in the hole every single time.  :)  Needless to say, it was a very relaxed game of mini golf!

The girls went down to bed easily and Keith and I got to visit with Uncle Danny for a bit before crashing ourselves.  It was a great day!
