On our way to our beach vacation this week (woo-hoo!!!), we made a stop in Corpus Christi for a homeschool field trip.
And for fun.
We went to the Texas State Aquarium.
We are studying oceans this month, since we are visiting the ocean, we find that to be a good time to learn about it.
Of course, the kids loved it...almost as much as their Daddy.
Did you know, Rusty and I visited an aquarium on our honeymoon?
In Van Couver.
Our kids come by their love of Creation honestly. Rusty is like a kid at these things.
It was great family fun.
We have arrived at our beach get-away, and the younger folks have just arrived. (Matt & Erin, nelyweds! and Nick & Carissa, married 7 mos. All four are Treston's new godparents!)
Rusty really showed how old we were when he talked to them about bringing a "boombox."
Awesome.
I'll post pics later on.

i have so so many good memories there!!
i miss it...we haven't been there in many years.
hope you guys have a great trip!
are you staying in corpus or are you in padre?
We're in Padre, and Liz, the last time we were here was for your Miss Texas Pageant. That brought back some memories!!!
We're staying in a great house just about a 1/2 block from the beach inlet. We're hitting the beach again today!

I hope you have a blast! How fun!
I can't wait to see some cute beach pics! You have to do that. I bet the beach there is much prettier than Galveston.
Have a ball!
