Galveston with Mimi and Doc...

I try to take the kids to see both grandparents every summer. I had planned on going to Conroe sometime, but after visiting with my mom she threw out the idea of going to Galveston for a mini-vacay. Daniel stayed home to work while the rest of us went to party! Our room had a beautiful view of the ocean...
 The kids couldn't get enough swimming in, whether at the beach or the pool!
 One whole day we spent at the beach. These three munchkins of mine love the beach, especially the waves!
 That evening we got cleaned up and headed to the strand. We ate seafood by the docks before walking around.
 We stopped in at the old confectionery to get a bite of ice cream. The kids had fun watching salt water taffy being made!
 The next day we went to Moody Gardens. I was probably just as excited as they were since I had never been before. We started at the rainforest before wondering to the aquarium.
 Kason and Zoe really enjoyed the exhibits where you could touch the animals. We were so surprised when Max was interested in the jelly fish and even stuck his hand in for a feel!
 There wasn't as much to do at the Discovery Pyramid for the older kids, but Max was in heaven! He was thrilled to get out of his chair and crawl around to play.
 Later that afternoon we headed to Palm Beach which is the swimming portion of Moody Gardens. It was basically a mini-waterpark and a fun way to end the day.
 The other two rode a few slides, swam around the lazy river, and splashed in the wave pool. On our last morning, the kids begged to go to the beach one more time before late check out. Doc and I couldn't turn them down!
 So thankful for our time with Mimi and Doc...it never disappoints! 
 High tides and good vibes with this crew!
