We Drove to the Ocean!

After two days in the car, we made it to the Gulf of Mexico and set up camp at Mustang Island State Park. Shells, sand, kites, fishing, bonfires, potato chips, pelicans, night swimming, huge sand castles, jellyfish, whole sand dollars, waves all night, and sunrise over the ocean.

Eric fished all day. Maddie went to town with him to get a pole and squid bait to catch ocean fish! They loved it.

Like Father, Like Daughter

We got out the chips and the birds attacked us! It was very funny as they kids tried to figure out how to get rid of them.

The kids and I played Duck, Duck, Gray Duck (that's what we called it in Minnesota when I was a kid).
