We spent a lot of time in the water last week!
On August 8th, Danny and I celebrated our 4th anniversary! We had reservations to stay at the Hyatt in Bastrop, the night before (Tuesday). We had car trouble (with both cars!) and ended up having to borrow Kathie's car for the night. We were starving, so we stopped at Chili's on the way. We didn't actually get into our room until like 9pm!
Our room was so nice... and huge! It had 2 separate rooms that were each a pretty big size. There were flowers, a fruit basket, and a bottle of champagne waiting for us.
Danny went downstairs and grabbed some orange juice for mimosas!
Danny had to leave first thing the next morning to take his mom's car back and pick ours up. I stayed in the room, made some coffee, and headed to the balcony to do some Bible study work. It was so relaxing! (Except for the random family that kept having bike catastrophe's and screaming as they fell. ha!)
Our car still wasn't ready when Danny got to Elgin. :/ He ended up having to come back in Dillon's truck. Ruston came along and we went out to the water area. They have got the neatest little set up going on down there. Ruston played in the splash pad and kiddie pool area for a little bit.
Then we moved on to the Lazy River. We floated around twice and he was ready to do something else.
They have a beach area! If we come back, we'll have to bring sand toys. The sticks and rocks didn't last as long for entertainment. :)
Showing off our fancy hotel wristbands back at home.
Once the car was finally ready, we packed it up and headed to the beach! I had initially wanted to make it down there in time to have a drink (or 2) where we got married, but it was too dark. :/ The next morning we packed our lunches and headed to the sand.
Bubba played hard and then napped hard too!
He's going to kill me, but I have to include this... I told Danny not to sit at the head of the chair because he was going to break it. He didn't listen. He broke it. :)
Friday we headed into Corpus to meet my parents. They always stop at Hooter's on their way into town and that definitely sounded good! It was a pretty laid back day... we didn't really do much other than eat and nap. :) Adam and Audrey got in late that night.
Saturday we went down to the beach again. The Port Royal crew walked down and met us for a little while.
Miss Blythe wasn't completely sold on the beach thing. She'll love it next year!
Bekah and I got some sun.
The girls...
...and the guys.
After his nap, this little dude got a Ninja Turtle ice cream!!

After nap and ice cream, we packed up and drove over to Port Royal. The pools there are incredible.
Getting some more sun
We showered up and headed out for dinner Saturday night.
Love this little boy.
Early Sunday morning, the boys got up and went fishing for red fish.
They caught 55 pounds worth of fish!
Ruston, Audrey, and I spent the morning at the pool again. Pops swam this little boy around for hours!
We had a blast! It was our last trip of the summer, but hopefully we'll be making some fall trips this year. :)
