Texas beach vacation

In June my parents got a 2 week break from their temple work.  My Mom decided to come out and visit us so that we could spend some time at the beach.  The Kenitzer's also came down from Dallas to get in on the fun.

We decided to stay in Rockport and go to the beach in the area on the first day.  It ended up being filled with jellyfish and not worth it to go swimming in the ocean and get stung.  The kids ended up playing on the sand and not really swimming.  Kylee and Dallin  entertained themselves by collecting hermit crabs and making them a castle.
We decided to take the ferry the next day to Port Aransas and try the beach there.
 
It turned out to be the better beach because there were no jellyfish and the kids were able to get in the ocean.
Brayden had all the seagulls following him because he kept throwing them bread.
The Kenitzers, Carlos, and my Mom stayed an extra day to tour Corpus Christi and the USS Lexington.
We finished off the week by going to Sea World.  The kids had lots of fun.
We were lucky to be able to have Mamaquel in town to celebrate her 69th birthday, part of the celebration was having a birthday breakfast at IHOP.
