Quick Family Vacation

If you know me at all, I have an itch to travel pretty much every day. I have really struggled this year because I want to go, but I also want it to be enjoyable for the whole family and not cost an arm and a leg since Carter won't remember a lick of it. After researching lots of places, we just decided to take it easy and head to Corpus Christi. We left on a Wednesday morning and drove 4.5 hours to get there. After checking in and unloading, we had a rather early dinner and then hit the beach. It wasn't very crowded which was nice. The next morning, we ate breakfast and then headed straight to the beach again.
 The hotel had boogie boards you could use.
 Carter just loves the sand.
 We also got the kite to fly really well!
 After the beach, we all played in the pool for a bit. That evening, we met John's aunt and uncle who live in town at a local restaurant. The boys ate well and behaved beautifully. Then, we came back to our hotel and walked the little boardwalk thing so I could get pictures :) 
 Friday morning, the day before July 4, we headed out. After seeing the beach that morning, I was glad we didn't stay! We headed to meet my cousins and eat breakfast at her restaurant which was absolutely yummy. They had never met Carter and last seen Jack as a baby so it was good catching up. After wrapping up there, we went to the Aquarium. We enjoyed the little shows there, ate lunch, and got on our way to head back home. It was a super quick trip, but we ended up having a blast and want to make it a yearly trip!
