Spontaneous January Beach Trip

Cory was going to his annual Outkast Car Club party on Saturday, and I was in a grumpy mood. I decided that instead of staying home and being grumpy all day, the girls and I should do something different. It was a beautiful warm day, so I thought we should head down to Galveston for a couple hours. The girls were surprised, but they were really excited. We got bathing suits, warm clothes, sand toys, and hopped in the car! Everything was going great, until we got on 45 and found the traffic. We continued on, found some back roads, and finally got to the beach! We went down to the State Park because it's free for us, and they have great showers! The girls were so excited. They played in the sand, actually got in the water a little bit, and explored the beach. We saw a ton of jellyfish and shells. We went on a little walk and saw a really big crab, stingray skeleton, and a live hermit crab. Once the sun started to go down, they starting freezing! They were fine, and then all of a sudden they started freaking out. We got all our stuff, took warm showers, and headed home. It was a great day. I love being spontaneous every now and then and doing things like that!
