Family Vacation

We just returned from a great family vacation to Moody Gardens in Galveston! It was such a relaxing and fun way to start our summer. Cade was such a grown up boy the whole trip, and did a great job with listening, waiting in line, and even breaking off from his beloved daily routine a few times. He really loved seeing everything!

Moody Gardens recently underwent major renovations following Hurricane Ike, and it was a perfect place for our family to stay. We went to the Aquarium, Rainforest, and Discovery Pyramids. While we were there, Palm Beach (small waterpark) and the Dinos Alive exhibit opened. This was really a dream come true for Cade... within 2 days, he saw sharks, dinosaurs, three 3D movies, and swam in a big pool. He also lived on a steady diet of chicken tenders and ice cream. No wonder this was the first vacation that he didn't want to leave!

Here are a few of our favorite pictures. More of them are in the video at the bottom.
