More "Beach - y" Fun...

One of our favorite things we did was take a loaf of bread to the beach and feed the sea gulls.  The girls thought it was so funny to watch them dive and swoop through the air to catch a little food!!  This was what they looked like right above our heads.Here I am with Abby, throwing the bread to the greedy gulls.  (As I look at the pictures from the beach, I think this is the only one that I am actually in... I was doing most of the picture-taking, I guess. Unfortunately, I was forced to wear a swimsuit!  AAK!)
After we left the beach, we drove over to Corpus Christi to see the Texas State Aquarium.  Friends, it was WORTH the drive.  It was GREAT!!!  The kids loved it, and we really did take a lot of photos there - I'll post some more of them later.  But, my favorite story from there involved a certain little blonde girl ... She might look a little like this picture...
We were listening to one of the employees give a talk about the sharks in the tank.  She was saying that each day they feed the sharks MACKEREL.  Gracie pipes up (quite loudly, I might add,) and says "REALLY?!?!?  I LOVE MACARONI!  I EAT IT ALL THE TIME!!!"  The woman giving the little talk just cracked up.  It was truly, truly funny.  It was a "Grace" moment.

Happy Monday... hope the week goes well!
