Last days of Summer


We spent the last weekend of the summer, appropriately, at the beach. Some very nice friends loaned us their beach house for the weekend in Galveston. Jenn and Michael Tickle stayed with us and it was such a great weekend! The weather was beautiful and we got none of the predicted thunderstorms. Jenn's sister Lisa came down on Saturday with their mom and Lisa's two boys, Owen and Gray. Owen and Jackson are the same age and became very fast friends. The two of them had a blast in the water on the boogie boards. What a difference a year makes when you're 4! Last year Jackson wouldn't go near the water without holding on to an adult for dear life. This year he was such a big boy, swimming in the waves, looking at all the fish and searching for seashells.

Grant had a great time too, he and Michael were inseparable. Michael held him up as the waves crashed into him and pulled him around on the boogie board. Grant also had a great time filling up a toy dump truck with sand. We spent almost the whole time down on the beach. Grant's got a nice little tan, but of course Jackson just has his sweet pink cheeks!
