Kemah by mahself

Today I decided we were well enough to go out somewhere and have fun. The weather is scary back in VA; my mom is giving me updates on their constant tornado warnings there..we hope the storms die down soon. There were a few tornados in Texas, but none close to us. But we are in a danger zone as far as hurricanes are concerned...

The weather was beautiful today though so I got us all ready and took the babies to Kemah boardwalk to walk around. I forgot about all the fun things there are to do and see for free there. The babies behaved well, but there were a few seconds where I panicked and couldn't see Lucas behind a slide or something...it's hard not to assume the worst case scenario when you lose sight of your kid for even one second. I was getting whiplash from looking back and forth, since the babies naturally gravitate to the opposite direction. But they behaved well and had fun. No whining. Next time i'll bring swim diapers and towels !

 
 

 

 

Olivia making her "keep-the-snot-out-of-mouth" face...we have gone through so many boxes of tissues!

 

We will probably go back this weekend. John gets his 3 day weekend again. He came back from New Orleans last night and brought us a few gifts. We will probably go there ourselves someday (we drove by it on the way here). He ate a lot of good food and met the LA plant operators he will be working in coordination with while in TX. He seems to be pretty happy with his job, but with all the time off, (and the GI bill) he will most likely go to school and get a degree in something...not sure yet.
