Sunday after church we drove down to Galveston to spend the afternoon. I have to say that the beach in September has it's merits - less traffic, less crowds, less heat.
Rob & Laney hang out at the water's edge
Kathryn teaches Elena to look for shells
Laney tries her hand at flying a kite.
This kite was the most frustrating part. We've had it for probably 6 years and ever since we bought it we've meant to take it to the beach to get it in some good wind. (It spends most of its time on display upstairs) We forgot it last year and at our trip earlier this summer. This weekend we finally remember and there was almost no wind. This is the highest it ever got and it took some work.

Part of the deal was they wanted to take group pictures on the beach in matching Hawaiian shirts. 
Here we are at the resort hotel. Elena was even able to get into the Hawaiian theme, thanks to her Aunt Tara. Thanks for the outfit.
Here's the hubby - Secret Agent Rob.
This is what happens when you try to get computer guys to wear shorts!
And I leave you with a family pic. The resort where we took the company pictures and had dinner has some beautiful spots to take photos, it is a popular wedding location. I hit a few of the popular spots and will post some pictures of the girls later in the week.

ROFLMAO at the pic of the guys in their black socks. My hubby will drive a charter in his suit and then come home and throw on shorts and sneakers to do something outside and he'll still have on his black socks. I tell him every time that it's grounds for divorce if he goes out in public like that!!! I'm jealous you got another beach trip in before the fall. Cute pics!
I love the family pictures! You all look like you had a great time.
What a great way to spend family time together at the beach!!! The girls are so cute. I bet you get lots of help from Kathryn.
I'm glad Laney was able to wear her outfit before it got cold again. Glad you all had a good time at the beach
