Spring Break

Friday...My niece's 8th 50's Sleepover Birthday Party! I still cannot believe that Isabelle is already 8! We ate hot dogs, french fries and had milk shakes in Big Al's Diner, had a hula hoop contest, bubble gum blowing contest and karaoke! The girls had a GREAT time, and Ashton was SO excited about her 1st REAL sleepover with a lot of girls!

Saturday...We got up early and headed to Galveston, but we had to stop at one of our favorite restaurants on the way! We all really miss Lupe Tortillas...good Mexican food, a patio and a sandbox for the kids all in one! We need one of these close to our house!


Sunday...Got up, did a little shopping on the strand and then we met up with 5 other families (including my sister, brother-in-law & nieces) at the pool! We had a good time swimming, eating, drinking, etc. They also had a bounce house, face painting, music, smores, etc for the kids! Lots of fun! So much fun and no nap=ordering in pizza and out for the night!

Monday...Went to the Aquarium with my sister and family! The girls really enjoyed it! Reese was especially impressed with it all!


Monday night....After a 2 hour wait, we FINALLY ate at the Rainforest Cafe! It wasn't too bad because they had entertainment and face painting outside to make the time go by. The highlight of our dinner was the surprise VOLCANO that we got, and they sang "Happy Birthday" to Ashton a little early!


Tuesday...Packed up and headed to the airport around 10 to drop Johnny off. Headed to San Antonio to visit our good friends, Charisse, Bella & Lexie! Unfortunately, Miss Ashton was under the weather about 1 1/2 hours down the road, and we had to turn around and head home! Picked Johnny up at the airport. It was a good thing that we were able to detour back to the airport b/c I think that Johnny would have been sleeping in the airport with all of the flight delays due to storms! We were all very sad that we missed out on seeing our friends and going to Sea World, but we FINALLY made it home at around 10:30! Phew. We were SO HAPPY to be home at last...

We have had a fun Spring Break so far! Hope you have had a good one too!!
