We took a mini vacation to Galveston this past weekend. We stayed at the Moody Gardens Hotel and explored the Gardens. Brinson had a lot of fun. It was pretty hot, but at least we were inside/outside. We did the Rainforest pyramid, Aquarium pyramid, Penguin Encounter, Dinos Alive, 3D Bugs on IMAX, 4D Dora adventure, Colonel Paddlewheel boat, Bones exhibit at Discovery museum, and Palm Beach waterpark. A lot of stuff to do in 2 1/2 days but we managed to do it! And a few things we even managed to do twice. We got home yesterday in time for Brinson's first day of school today. It was really nice. I'm glad we did it, even if it was a flogging...lol I am going to make a separate post with my cell phone pics, I couldn't get them organized well to put them in this post.
Time to start the day!! Wakey wakey!
Brinson was ecstatic to see Dora walking around at breakfast, her lil face just lit up!
