Mother's Day weekend at Port A


Click here for more pictures!! (sorry for having to link, couldn't put all the pictures I wanted to up on the blog)

We decided to take a few days off of work and head to the coast. This was Kase's first trip to the beach! We had a great time at Port Aransas. We stayed at condo called the Mayan Princess. We found this place on a referral from a friend of mine at work. It was great. The condos are for sure the way to go with a baby. We were able to save some money by cooking at the condo. We did go out to dinner though.

The first night after we got checked into the condo we went to the Port A brewery which was great fun! Kase got a BIG cookie for dessert.

The second day we went to the Texas State Aquarium it was so much fun to watch Kase chase the dolphins back and forth by the big viewing window. Kase was also very fascinated by the jelly fish. I loved the sea turtles... too cute! That night we went to dinner at a place called Moby Dicks. Was a lot of fun, Kase slept through alot of it.

Saturday we hit the beach and then the pool for most of the day! We had so much fun playing! We got all cleaned up and then went to a nice dinner at Virginia's by the bay, had steaks and watched the water as we ate in the open air by the bay.

It was a wonderful mother's day weekend! I think we will plan to do this every summer.

Spring Fest













Every year our company puts on an awesome event called Spring Fest. It is great. They have different areas set up with booths for food, drinks and fun. This year the areas were by country. They had an Asian area with egg rolls, fried rice and Tai Chi demos. They had Italian area with meatball subs, sausage on a stick and also a demo on pizza dough making and tossing. Fun stuff. Kase loved the egg rolls I think that was his favorite event of the day. Next year I'm sure it will be the boucny houses. I really want to help Kase into a bouncy house and bounce a little myself.

They also had a petting zoo. They even had a petting zoo. Kase had a great time with the Zebu. Mommy decided that she needs one to go with the mini horse in the back yard. Who dosen't need a mini cow?

They also had military demos and we were able to see a Black hawk helecopter. Kase thought it was pretty cool... Chris wanted to shoot the gun :)

That was a great weekend and a wonderful event at work!
