Spring Break-Part One

We got to go to Corpus Christi for Spring Break this year to stay on the boat with BaBa. It was the first time Kris has seen the ocean, well technically the bay..... Dave's favorite part was having coffee every morning in the cockpit. My favorite part was sleeping in a bit every morning while BaBa dealt with Pop Tarts. Kye's favorite part was sleeping on the boat and Kris' favorite part was "WATER!!!!!"



Fishing was one of the favorite pastimes, the shrimpers at the neighboring dock were so good to the boys, giving them an assortment of by catch. Starfish were a favorite. Fresh shrimp everyday was hard to deal with, but we managed :)


Kristopher managed to hook his shoe, we finally convinced him there was nothing after him, not sure he completely believed us

The dinghy provided lots of entertainment for Dave and the boys

Fishing off the pier, waiting for the boat race to start. It was VERY windy, can you tell? I'm very glad I was not crewing that boat!!!!

The last day we were finally able to get out on the open water. Each of us took a turn with the rudder. The boys liked the going out and coming in, but kind of bored in between.


We made it over to Padre Island for an afternoon, it was COLD!! That didn't stop the boys from running in the waves. Kye got really good at jumping waves. Kris really liked the sand. We were able to collect several shells as well.




There's more to come, check back in a couple of days!!!

Kye had the lead in the first grade music program, Bugz. He was the stink bug!!
Lauren was able to come see the show too, Kye was so excited!! Kris seems to have a new friend too......

HOCKEY!!!!

We went to our very first Hockey game ever. We have a team here in town that several OE kiddos play on. One of them invited us to a game yesterday. Unfortunately Zak was sick and we didn't get to see him play but it was a lot of fun to watch. Kris especially was excited, Kye really just liked it when they slammed into the glass right in front of us. I have a feeling we will be attending another game or two.....

Kye has lost ANOTHER tooth.....no connection to the hockey game....I think that makes 6 now, before we know it he will have a mouth full of big boy teeth!

With Daddy being gone so much for basketball, Kris has become a temporary "Daddy's boy!"
