Our family got to go to Corpus Christi, Texas for the BGCT meeting, as I worked a booth for Living Stones Tours! We picked Don K up in San Antonio (and enjoyed the cell phone waiting lot's palm trees and rock area), then headed to CC. We were in the Omani hotel on the 17th floor. This was the girls first time (in memory) to stay in a hotel with a LOBBY, they thought it was really fancy and nice. And we had a great view of the bay.
That evening we walked along the sea wall to the flagship Wateraburger for dinner.
On the walk back (with an amazing full moon over the water) a man had his pickup with windows down and Selena's music playing at her memorial. He also offered to take our picture as a family. The weather was perfect for fall.
Day two-Don and I are in the booth all day. Caleb and the girls go to Mustang Island state park to play in the water-cool!
Gloria didn't get in past her knees.
He catch a needle fish. It was one of the first times Gloria didn't want to hold the wildlife-teeth!
They played on the jetty...
made markings in the sand and had a picnic.
Driving back into town they posed with a huge shark and mermaid with witch fingers!
Back at the hotel they swam a little and enjoyed the hot tub until Gloria's hair turned green (I got in that evening and there was sand on the seats!) They got cleaned up and went to see Brave (I was jealous!) before picking us up for a Tex-Mex dinner.
Day three-at the Texas State Aquarium. Caleb said it was almost empty at first (until two school groups came) so they got to play and see everything multiple times. Gloria got to be part of a show with a diver. And Lydia in another animal show. Of course they loved the dolphins best.
That afternoon we packed up and back to San Antonio and home. So glad Caleb was able and willing to take off to spend a fun time with the girls while I worked.
