After our time in Corpus Christi it was back for a week at Phil’s parents house where the babies spent as much time as possible swimming. This is really the only way to enjoy being outdoors in Texas during these hot months, you just have to be in the water.
This week we also celebrated Lily’s 10th.

Some mornings in Texas it can actually be tolerable to sit outside. Day 5, Ephraim and I attempted breakfast Al fresco for 5 minutes. This time it wasn’t the heat that chased us back inside but the mosquitoes.
The dog fenced up next door to the rental house was a big source of entertainment for the babies. While I cleaned vomit out of the van Ephraim made a new buddy.

The babies did what they love to do, color and cut and play with the “toys” they create. I did what I do best; laundry and dishes.

On day 3 clouds rolled in. This sadly however did not bring cooler temperatures with it. We decided to have a brand new experience as a family and take a ferry over to Port Aransas. We waited in a line of cars for an hour, parked on the ferry, unloaded for the 2 minute ferry ride then scrambled to get back into the van. It was a blast!
