South Padre Party!

Wow! David is completely done with his second year of dental school! He did awesome this year and still has a 4.0! He has worked so hard and has done a great job. So, to celebrate we went down to South Padre with his sister and her husband (Jennie and Nathan). None of us have ever been there so we thought it would be a fun adventure. We got there Thursday night and stayed until Saturday. We had a great time. However, we were disappointed in the lack of fishing options. They only had one pier/jetty on the whole island and it closed at 11pm. That might not sound so bad, but when your a dedicated fisherman who likes to stay up all night fishing, it's almost enough to spoil the trip. We even thought about leaving early and driving up to Corpus Christi. Friday we went shopping and then went and played on the beach. It was overcast and we all got super sun burned. Saturday we left early and drove to Choke Canyon and fished and saw a lot of scary alligators!

your pictures are always so amazing! I am so bummed we didn't get to go-that is the one bad thing about babysitting-sometimes you get stuck! Congrats David on the 4.0 but feel free to calm down at any point so that my husband won't keep trying to keep up with you!
