Texas/Thanksgiving 2008

I'm not sure why, but my computer keeps uploading all my pix exactly backwards of how I try load them. Grrrr...

Anyway... Here are my pictures from our trip to Texas! YAY! I know you've all been waiting so patiently. Not all of them are on here because my dear sweet sister APRIL used a bunch of my pix on her blog, AND pretty much gave the entire narrative of our trip. SO. Y'all can just link to her blog for the play-by-play. I'll just give little tid-bits here and call it good.

The beach outside our condo in Port Aransas.

Mi Papa in all his awesomeness.

Mi Hubby and Granty in the car on the way to get some lunch at Whataburger!

My dorky, I mean, dear sweet sister who's blog you need link to.

Don't forget Peck in the backseat.

A pelican.

Mi familia chillaxin' on the jetty and watching the dolphins.

Some fish some guys on the jetty caught. Probably about the size of a football and maybe 2 inches thick with some wicked spines on the back.

Said dolphins.

The same dolphins.
I have about 18 of almost the exact same picture. Not sure why.

My awesome Pappy, again, in his sweet vacation shirt!

Mi Madre in the back of the car. She and Mikkele rode here because we were short on seating. Good thing she's short so she could fit back there!
Just kidding, Mom!

April and Granty giving Adam 2 eyebrows instead of 1.

It's looking better!

He loved it. Don't worry.

Albert and Johnny got to go fishing at Ken and Robin's river house in Wimberly.

Too bad it was too cold to get in.

Albert and Becky hanging out down by the river.

Out of place, I know. Stupid computer.
Grant loved listening to Adam's i-pod!

I guess it wasn't too cold to get in. Johnny did!

Albert paid Johnny $5 bucks to get in the water. So he stripped down and jumped in! He claimed it wasn't too bad.

Looking for a turtle.

Still looking for the turtle.

HuckleJohnny Finn.

Overall, we had a great trip! It was great to see all the Roberts family and Johnny and Becky. Oh! April (you need to clickit!) wanted me to mention all the great eats we had! With pleasure...

We ate at some of our favorite spots...
Rudy's BBQ ~ "The worst BBQ in Texas"
El Mirasol
Taco Cabana ~ We ate there 3 times!
Whataburger
We ate at a seafood restaurant in Port Aransas (can't remember the name).
Thanksgiving with the Roberts clan.
Thanksgiving Part 2 with Ken and Robin (Jalapeno Cornbread Stuffing... mmm....)
And of course, Mom's house! She made us some scrumptious German food, salmon, and strawberry waffels upon request from all of us spoiled kids!

No wonder we all gain a bunch of weight whenever we go to Texas. The food is so good!

Thanks, again, to Mom and Dad for having us and for taking us to the coast! It was a blast! Thanks to April, Mikkele, Grant, and Adam for riding down with us and sharing gas! It was a long trip, but loads of fun! Until next time...
