Destin Vacation Part 2

Beach time! We went to the beach almost daily. Because it was crowded, we tried to go early from 8-11am. The boys had a blast boogie-boarding and building with the sand. We also played some Kubb and Can Jam (Frisbee game) at the beach.

 Clear waters and beautiful scenery






















We spent the afternoons playing games and relaxing. It was another wonderful break from the day-to-day life and so fun to create memories.

Destin Vacation Part 1

 We made another trip to Destin to enjoy the beautiful beaches. We went with Jared's family, his mother-in-law, and my parent.

Celebrating my dad's 66th birthday!

(Note that Austin is officially a swimmer without floaties! He had to wear them at the beach though...)

Brenham Vacation Part 2

Kara was generous enough to take some family pictures for everyone:













On Thursday we took a day trip to Washington-on-the-Brazos and Barrington Living History Farm in order to change up the pace on vacation. We went to the museum and did a hike.





Learning about the signing of the of the Texas Declaration of Independence on March 2, 1836.

Followed by some ice cream at the Bluebell Factory


The kids played Werewolves for quite a long time together a few times! (It was awesome!)

Beautiful scenery from the property

A common sight this vacation: tarantulas (eek!)



It was nice to escape the pandemic a little bit and just enjoy being together as family. It was so fun to play games and laugh together!
