Vacation Recap

Hey Y'all!! 
First off...It's been 1 year since I started my blog and I have absolutely loved every minute of it! I made some awesome friends and wish I would have started this journey earlier. :) Thank you to everybody that has followed along with our crazy life this past year...Looking forward to another year! Cheers bitches! :) 


Moving forward...We finally made it home from Galveston Beach last night! It was such a great trip, we are always so busy and with Lane being 12 he always is with friends or wanting to hangout with friends. So it was really nice for just us 3 to spend some quality family time together. It feels like it's been forever since just us 3 have spend this much time together with limited phone interruptions or crazy schedules.





We got there Saturday mid-day after sitting in Houston traffic for an extra hour. We pretty much went straight to the beach and hungout until late that evening. Sunday was an all day beach/pool day, which was really relaxing to have a pineapple & orange fruity drink in my hand while working on my tan. 




Thennnn came Monday...Monday was deep sea fishing day! The boys have been looking forward to this for weeks! I was even excited to see what this adventure brought. Well after 20 minutes on our fun adventure...it brought me nausea, a light head and dizziness. Yep. This sister got sea sick. It sucked, I mean really sucked! I really thought I was a badass and it wouldn't happen to me but that was an epic fail. 






Even though I was laying anywhere I could get the dizziness to stop, the boys still had a blast. Michael and Lane both caught sharks and asking fish. It was pretty damn awesome, it took Lane around 20 minutes to get his shark to the boat and about 30 minutes for Michael. It was INSANE! I seriously was laying on my back with my head hangin off watching the boys fight their sharks! It was not my finest moment but so worth for the boys to have the great time they did. But my sweet hubby finally said it was time to make the 15 mile trip back to land since my face was ghostly white. :)

I would highly recommend Capt. Dave at Get Hooked Charters in Galveston to anybody! He was fantastic with Lane and put up with me being extra sick sea!

Who's Your Padre!?

Well we made it out alive...barely. I finally got home from my girls only beach trip to South Padre Island and I am wore slap out. I would have wrote this post earlier but instead I have been racking my brain on how 1 man can dirty an entire house in a week! So you guys can blame Michael for my extended absence. But I am happy to be home even though I had a fabulous time with some awesome ladies that I adore! This year there were 10 of us so we decided to rent out the penthouse in our condo...which resulted in me singing "I'm So Fancy" all week. Apologizes to all. 

The beach at South Padre is by far the prettiest of all Texas beaches.

There were a few downfalls...like when I was so hungover that I nearly tossed my cookies in a toddler's sand bucket on the beach. I really don't understand why I do that to myself!! I know I'm gonna feel like shit the next day but I still think I am a badass and can handle it. Once again I failed. :) Or there was the group of speedo wearing old men who planted their asses in the sand beside us. Who gave me the urge to toss my cookies again...this time without the help of alcohol!


By the end of the week I was so bloated from the fabulous food and all the alcohol consumed that I had to get right back to eating like a rabbit as soon as I got home. But I really think I could live on fish tacos for the rest of my life, then these had grilled zucchini and squash with them. Yummy!

Result of all the alcohol comsumed by my drunk ass...ducklips. 



Rolling Rock in a frosty glass..thank you beer gods!!



This should explain a lot...

All and all it was a great vacation filled with fabulous food, tons of alcohol and sun kissed tans! 

Be sure and stop by the Blog Baton Instagram tomorrow, yours truly will be taking it over for the day!
