This week was my spring break and we went camping in Galveston. It was a blast. It was also a lot of work, and probably more difficult than we anticipated due to excess wind, a new tooth, and the start of colds for both kids. Sharon is an absolute champ for going. We spent 3 nights camping at Galveston State Beach Park, which is awesome because the campsites are just 50 meters from the beach. If it wasn't for the 25 mph winds that popped up our 2nd and 3rd days, it would have been paradise. We still managed to have a lot of fun between the random pyscho crying I'm so overwhelmed about everything and I'm only a baby why am I camping fits that Enoch and Michael sometimes had. When we weren't at the beach, we spent a lot of time at Moody Gardens. Kids 3 and under are free, making it a reasonable deal for a family.
Rather than say more, I'm just posting lots of pictures. I think it's the most pictures I've ever had in one post, but it's easier to look at pictures than read a story, right?

| Things were great until it got windy. I thought the tent was going to break. I slept on the windy side and almost got suffocated by the tent several times. |
 |
| Enoch was petrified of the water the first day and would only stay by our stuff. It was weird because last time he loved the water. |

| I can't believe they are both looking at the picture and smiling at the same time. |
 |
| This pier looked fun until we realized they charge $5 per person to go on it.... lame. The end of it is still destroyed from Hurricane Ike. |
 |
| The Galveston sea wall. |
 |
| The Moody Gardens pyramids. Blue is the aquarium, white is the rainforest, and red is the bodies exhibit and movies. This was taken on the old colonel paddle wheel boat.

| The last windy day at the beach. His jeans are wet... he actually touched the water all by himself! |

| The kids were about exhausted by the end |

| Picasa has some fun new editing tools... You have to look at it full size to appreciate it

| For some reason I think the neon effect is cool. Lower right is a "60's" look. |
