South Padre Island 2009 Trip

Well, I finally got some vacation from both jobs and went on a much deserved trip with the family to South Padre Island. We've been planning the trip since December. Aaahh..the beach..the sun, and the Texas heat! Here are some key events that happened on our trip.

• On Monday morning, as I packed the car hoping to leave early, David informed me that I had a flat tire. I had just put the last piece of luggage into the trunk. Had to unload everything..put on a spare..then drive to the tire place to get a new tire. This took over an hour.
• I enticed my niece and nephew to watch "Jaws 2" with me several times while vacationing on the beach. Luckily..they didn't get paranoid about sharks.
• The resort was overcrowded with pre-teen boys checking out my niece. David was not a happy camper. LOL
• Had the kids in the beach and pool as much as I could. Some things never change..I didn't want to leave and exclaimed.."aaaahhhh man" if we needed to get out of the pool.
• I let Erica watch some scary movies and then we stayed up all night giggling in the room. At one point David had to leave because he couldn't get any sleep because we wouldn't shut up. (David was sleeping on the floor)
• I should never be roommates with my niece..we laugh way too much and get in trouble all the time! lol
• Watched a lot of Spongebob Squarepants and ICarly...and I liked them!! lol
• I finally read the warning flags put out by the condo and discovered the purple flag meant "Dangerous and venemous wildlife in the waters"..good thing I read that on the last day or I would've never went into the ocean!!!
