Surfside, TX

We are going strong with "family fun" here in Texas. After forgetting the camera on our Tuesday trip to the beach in Galveston, I was relieved I remembered it today. We decided to check out the "other beach" around here - Surfside. It is about the same distance from Pearland, but more south. It was definitely less crowded and less of a tourist destination. We enjoyed this quieter beach compared to that of Galveston. And the beach-combing here was great!! So here it is ... another day... more fun in Texas. (Sorry, it is long)

One happy little boy...
he was so excited to go to the beach he could hardly wait.

Connor... testing out the water. He loved it!

Tag! - Dad is great to play all day.

The boys taking a break


We couldn't keep Connor from eating the sand - He loved it!




Off to do more wave jumping with Dad

"Our Sea Turtle"
I was taking pictures of Connor and of the kids in the water, when all of a sudden I looked back over at Connor, and he was making a run for it - Straight to the water. His crawl reminded me of a little baby sea turtle hurrying to the ocean ... it was so cute.





You can't go to the beach without building a sand castle.
