Corpus Christi























Before Easter, we took a short trip to Corpus Christi with my sister, Alora. We had a great time! After checking into the hotel (which was right next to the USS Lexington and Aquarium), we headed for the beach. I stayed on the beach and ate cookies, while Alora and Kevin took the boys in the water. I was really surprised that it was warm enough to get in, but they all loved it. After a few hours, we headed inside, changed, and went across the street to Blackbeard's restaurant. The food there was great, and we were even seated right by a local musician who played fun songs all night. In the morning, we walked over to the Texas State Aquarium. We saw dolphins, petted Stingrays, saw Otters, Sea Turtles, sharks, birds, etc. It was really fun, and the boys even had a little playground there to play on. Afterwards, we got some snow cones and drinks and headed to the USS Lexington. We had a stroller, so we couldn't all go on the tours, but we took turns and had a good time until Hayden fell down a flight of stairs. He scraped up his leg pretty bad, so we ended up having to end our trip early and head back home. We still had a wonderful time, and I hope we can go back, soon.
