South Padre Island

This past Friday we headed down to South Padre Island to meet up with Cole's family for a weekend at the beach. Cole, Connor, and I all flew from Austin which was so nice to not have to make the long drive for a short trip. The plane was not full so Connor even got his own seat! We were able to bring his car seat on which made it even nicer. He did great the whole time. Even the couple behind us leaned over at the end of the flight to thank Connor for being so good. :) Cole's parents had left on Thursday and offered to take all of our luggage for us. What a blessing it was to have a great, short flight down and have our luggage already there waiting for us when we arrived.

Shortly after we got there we were in our swimsuits and down at the beach. We were all so glad to see Amy, David, and Kate. Connor loved watching and playing with Kate. It is fun to see how they start interacting more the older they get.

He wasn't quite sure about the sand at first.

Connor loved feeding the birds with Poppa and Nana.

We weren't sure what he would think about the water, but he had so much fun in it! He made the cutest little giggle everytime the waves would crash on him.

My sweet boys!

Cole and I helped Connor build his first sand castle.

I love this picture!

Thank you Nana and Poppa for taking us on such a fun trip! Lots of fun memories were made of Connor's first trip to the beach.
