Vacation 2009

Kaylee had her first beach vacation and words cannot express her excitement or LOVE for the beach. We headed down to Galveston for a week of family fun.


















We went to the Aquarium in Houston and it was really neat as they had a lot of activities and even RIDES that catered to Kaylee's age. My favorite experience was watching Kaylee ride an up and down roller coaster for the first time. I have captured a little bit of her reaction on the below video.



















Beach Fun!
When we first arrived, Kaylee didn't want to even have her feet touch the water. By the end of the week - she was running and jumping over the waves! She loved playing in the sand, building castles, making mud pies, feeding the always hungry birds and flying her Elmo kite!























































After we would play on the beach, we had to hit the pool for a little swimming fun. She insisted that when she becomes a big sister, she will go under water, but for now it just wasn't for her! I give her props for trying - she did go underwater twice and decided that was enough! :-) The pool was really neat because it looked like it didn't end and you could still see the ocean from the pool! It was a cool effect!


















More chocolate cake?!?! I definitely must be on vacation!



















Kaylee LOVES playing putt putt and the course there was really neat. Some of the holes were really unique that we had never seen before. She improved her game by 40 strokes between the two games we played that week!
