Labor Day Weekend



Our friends "The Adam's Family" duh nuh nuh nuh Snap Snap duh nuh nuh nuh snap snap...(okay that's enough) invited us to Port Aransas to stay with them and another family "The Barney's" at a beach house over the holiday.

We had a wonderful time with friends, touring the USS Lexington, and playing in the ocean.


Tour of the USS Lexington


Ryan a.k.a. Maverick


Ryan & Keedan climbing up the super narrow steps to the upper deck.


Keedan & Daddy


Keedan & Mommy


All three of us in front of an aircraft similar to the kind that John McCain flew when he was in the armed forces.


Keedan hanging out in the "fire breathing" part of the jet.



Keedan & Mommy sitting on some of the artillery machines.


Keedan & Daddy sitting on some of the artillery machines.


Keedan & Ryan taking a quick rest stop on the ships lower quarters. As you can see the space is quite cramped.
Fun Fact: Parts of the movie Pearl Harbor were filmed on the ship.


Keedan got locked up in the "BRIG" for his bad behavior






Luckily I came to his rescue.


Keedan & Carson "Out for the Count" on our way back from the tour.

Monday...aka Beach Day...aka hurricane Gustav hit Louisiana Day thus sending massive waves our way.


Check out Ryan riding those Narly waves.



Me catching some waves in a Kayak.....it was oh sooooooooo much fun!!! Just look at those monster waves.


Me just enjoying life, literally ;)

Looks like yall had fun. When waves are like that here. We are not allowed to go out n the water. I guess its for safety but honestly i think it is because military guys went out in the water while drinking and got hurt.
A few more days and Ill be 3 mons pregnant. we are excited. We ordered a baby doppler so we can hear the heart rate anytime we want to. I see the doc about 12 days still to make sure things are going well
