Port Aransas Trip

We loaded up and spent a few nights in Port Aransas at Port Royal Resort. Gramps, Nanalyn, Granny, Aunt Kerri, Uncle John, Auntie Am, Uncle Jonathan and Luke also joined us. We were able to stay all together in a condo and had lots of fun. The beach was very windy and had lots of seaweed so we mainly spent our time at the pool. However we did spend one morning at the beach and Logan loved the waves, building sand castles and throwing sand (much to everyone elses dislike).


Our balcony faced the ocean and had a good view of the waves, the birds and the bridge over the sand dunes that led to the beach. Logan and Gramps enjoyed lots of time together watching the sites. "Look Mommy a bird! "

Logan and Daddy having fun with the noodle. Logan is a little fish. He loves the water and is not afraid of going under. He is not swimming on his own, but with floaty on his arms he can make his way around the pool.


Enjoying the huge pool. It had multiple pools joined together separated by waterfalls and even a waterslide. Us "big kids" enjoyed it and look forward to letting the "little kids" enjoy the slide in the future.;)


Andrew like his brother loves the water. This was his first swim in a pool. From the love for his baths I was not concerned how he would react. He loved the pool and I am not sure his legs ever stopped moving the whole time we were in the pool.


We spent one morning at the Texas State Aquarium. The boys had lots of fun looking at all the sites and it was a good break from the sun and the heat.

Logan and Luke looking at the many fish. When asked what was his favorite Logan said watching the dolphins jump, seeing the sea horses and a clown fish that looked like Nemo.


Auntie Am and Luke take a break from touching the sting rays to smile for the camera.

Logan trying to touch the sting rays. He was unsuccessful but I wasn't. :) Very slimy not sure I will be doing that again :)


We saw a dolphin show while at the aquarium. We all enjoyed seeing the dolphins jump and do tricks.
