Today was such a perfect day to end the trip on! We all slept in today, and woke up to Carole’s totally amazing breakfast tacos. After breakfast, the kids wasted no time in getting immediately out to the water. I hadn’t even drank a full cup of coffee before most everyone was already in the water. It goes without saying that we were much more vigilant about sunscreen today, and no one is more worse off than they already were yesterday, as far as sunburns go.
We made the most of today and spent probably too many hours out on the beach. But who knows the next time we’ll get such an awesome opportunity to hang out at such a rad beach? (Thank you again, Walter family!)
For dinner, Carole made chicken and sausage gumbo, and pie for dessert. If we come back in town morbidly obese, I would blame Carole, because her cooking is just way too good. After dinner we projected writing letters to Carson at his military camp. For some reason, we drew narwhals on most of them. I really hope Carson likes narwhals cuz….he’s about to receive a lot of them in the mail.
We had one last customary night walk tonight. We stumbled upon many awesome sand castles built by other people, which is really awkward in the dark because we basically all just ruined them by walking through them.
We’re going to have a really early morning tomorrow, so we can get into Dallas at a reasonable time. (And by reasonable I mean midnight). The kids are all in bed by now, and I feel like I should follow suit, seeing as I will be actually be driving tomorrow. Goodnight everyone! Expect one last post tomorrow! (Maybe….)
