We had our first family vacation this summer!! (technically we went to Sea World in 2010 but it wasn't truly a "vacation", plus we were missing child #4). We went to South Padre Island for 5 whole days!!!! It might not be Paris or The Bahamas....but it WAS a vacation and I am very grateful.
First we had a FUN ride there. All 6 of us "sardined" ourselves into the truck and we talked, laughed, and ate all the way there!!
When we finally arrived...the kids were VERY excited about our condo!!!
After taking all of our bags up the THREE floors of STAIRS.....we quickly headed out to meet our friends Kristy and Kevin at Wanna Wanna's.
Oh Wanna Wanna's, how I love thee. It is a quaint little bar/restaurant on the beach. I could live there.
And since this awesome place is RIGHT ON THE BEACH.......the kids HAD to play.
Delaney wasn't too thrilled.
But she did get her feet at least a little wet!
Jakob found a washed up jelly fish!!
Next, we let the kids swim until they couldn't swim any longer!!! HOW FUN!!!! Mommy even got to lay out and soak up the beach sun!!
We even got a few underwater pictures!
The dolphin tour was another exciting adventure!! We saw tons of dolphins, a pirate ship, got to touch and learn about a few sea creatures, and ride the huge waves!!! It was a BLAST!!!!
