Galveston- the last two days...

Well, I can assure you the last two days of Galveston are far less exciting than the previous ones, but I do have to finish blogging the trip. So let's get to it!

Our third and final full day in Galveston was pretty slow, because if you remember me saying, we had all gotten some pretty serious sunburns from our day before on the beach. So a lot of this day we chilled in the hotel playing cards and such, which was fun, but not as fun as the beach of course.

Anyway, we did go out that afternoon to do some souvenir shopping and take some pictures...

We went down by the beach first to take some pictures first (and when I say take some pictures, I mean my mom took pictures of us kids. We weren't exactly thrilled about it, but it's not really like we could say no, she did give birth to us after all)

So here are a couple of the pictures we took out on the beach...




after the beach we headed over to our favorite shop in Galveston Murdochs!

Before we shopped for souvenirs, we took a couple pictures out on the deck right off Murdochs, that over looks ocean.


Me and Michael.


I had this picture in my first post about Galveston, and it's probably my favorite picture of the whole trip.

OK, Mom one more.


Aaron holding some colorful sea shells. He loved playing with the big bins of sea shells, they have at Murdochs.


That was about it for our last night in Galveston. Sorry wasn't more exciting, but believe me with the sunburns we had, nobody wanted it to be exciting.


Now for the trip back... I went ahead and put these 2 days in the same post, because I knew they would be shorter, and I'm trying to whip out my summer stuff as fast as I can. :)

Leaving Galveston. :(

One more before we go...


Well, that's all I have for ya, from Galveston. Our drive back was pretty uneventful, so no stories there. But have no fear, because I still have lots to blog about from the summer!

Goodness, y'all will never be able to deny that you're siblings. You look so much alike! Hey, sometimes relaxing days on a vacation are better than going going going. Especially when you're sunburnt and hurting. I'm glad to finally see the end of your trip, and glad you're back to blogging.

Hey, someday, someone will thank me for those pictures... maybe... Anyway, it doesn't matter - I like them. They do favor one another don't they, Barb. And a little mop-topped and rumpled, but they're still a pretty bunch of kids, if I do say so myself. They'd look even better, if they didn't look slightly annoyed to be having to be photographed. Sorry guys - mother's will always love pictures of their kids.
