The trip that almost wasn't

Last week Vin and I went to Galveston with Aunt Leslie. It was almost a no-go since at the last minute Vincent got the stomach bug that Reese had. Here is our sad we're not going to the beach face.

After a morning on the couch it became clear that he was going to be fine and if not he could just puke in a bucket in the back seat. This was a dicey move on mine and Leslie's part but we did it anyway.

One of the most exciting parts of the trip was our discovery of Buc-ee's. They are only in south Texas and since we've started talking about them, it seems that lots of people love this place. Leslie has a friend that said that a trip to Buc-ee's. was a destination for them.
The bathrooms are awesome! Look at all the stuff they sell in the restrooms.

This is a bedazzled skull above the stalls. How funny!
The best part is that they have sanitaizer in each stall. Genious.




At the beach which isn't that great but Vin didn't know any better.



This picture was requested by Eric. So we brought the Mexican wrestling  mask with us and the 1920's bathing suit.




At the Pleasure Pier which had lots of kid rides and was super clean. There were no lines which as great. He just rode and rode and rode.

Cutie at the hotel.

Leslie likes to keep the air at about 65 degrees. She was smart to tell Vin to bring his big heaviy blanket with us.

Overall it was a great trip. It was fairly close, there was no traffic in Galveston and very clean. We also went to Schlitterbahn but definitely did not feel the need take more pictures in our bathing suits!!
