we toyed with the idea of trying out another beach for our last day of vacation, but being the sentimental gal that i am, i wanted to go back to rockport. i wanted the chance to
repeat the picture we took in front of the super groovy rockport sign last year.
here's our photo session from this year...

i told you it was a photo session, ha! so after all the photos, back to the beach we went! this time we went beachcombing, looking for all sorts of shells, crabs and even jellyfish! we brought plastic jars for the boys to collect their seashells in. we buried noodle in the sand. john threw the boys around in the water again. it was another great day at the beach, and we were sad to leave.

he really enjoyed being buried! |
we spent the afternoon resting up a bit and then took advantage of the hotel's indoor swimming pool.

noodle enjoying the hot tub |
noodle, who can't stand for the bathwater to be lukewarm, discovered the hot tub and loved it. he was talking to complete adult strangers and it was totally cracking us up!
we were sad to leave the next day but so glad to have spent so much fun time all together. it was a great family vacation that ended with lunch in austin, a trip to ikea in round rock, and then home, sweet home.
now we're trying to figure out a way to spend more time at the beach...a pop up camper, maybe? i keep trying to convince john we need to indulge my love for volkswagon vans and drive one to the beach!
i'll keep working on him. :)
