In what we all hope will become a tradition, our family booked a beach house on Galveston "island" (let's be honest, it's a sandbar) for a weekend in September.
September can be a tricky month down here. You can have oppressive heat continuing from summer, a hurricane strong enough to take out downtown Houston for a week (Hurrication 2008!) or the beginnings of fall. Guess which we got? In a completely unexpected turn of events, we got the latter! Temps dropped, wind picked up nicely from the ocean, and we got ourselves a fantastic weekend.

| Cute little yellow house. |
Much time was spent just enjoying wandering up and down in the waves, greeting the day's sunrise with coffee and having good conversations on the porch.

| This is what sand feels like? First timer! |

| Just perfect. |

| He is a mighty fine man! |

| My dad has successfully collected sand from every beach trip we have ever taken (big events, not just a jaunt to Stewart Beach). |
I have an incredible family that loves me exactly as I am, applauds my accomplishments, loves Tanner as their own and has provided me with all my many babies that I get to love on and poke fun at and laugh with, etc, etc, etc. I am grateful.
Until next year, my little family of 13!
Love these pics! Can't believe how big AB and Kyle are getting! So glad you guys had a good weekend weather (and company) wise. :c)
