We took Isaac to "Surfside Beach" If you want to know where that is, Go to Googlemaps.com and find Houston Texas. once you see the city then just follow the main freeway that heads SOUTH. There's a popular beach called "Galveston" that is SouthEast, but we went down the freeway directly south and that's where you'll find Surfside.
Here you pull up to a little booth and you pay 10 bucks for an "annual pass" They will give you a sticker to put in your car and you don't have to pay again until January! So you drive past the booth and suddenly you're on the beach!! After teasing your family that you can't see the ocean and you drive right to it, you may laugh at their screams but then you'll be in a whole lot of trouble since Sand is harder to get out of than snow.
So we drove down the beach until there was a space inbetween a few cars. We claimed our spot there and therefore the beach in front of our car is 100% claimed as OURS!!!
But did Isaac like it?

Yes he did!
The waves were so BIG!! They were just about as good as SoCal!!! That's me walking into the picture that Amy is taking, I'm holding Isaac's toy shovel for the sand. And that's another Optometry student in the backgrond catching a football.
Oh no!! Isaac's drinking on the beach!!
While Isaac was too drunk to notice, Amy and I decided to leave him with some friends and go swimming!! I had blown up this raft and we ran out over to the sand bar where the big waves first were breaking. Both Amy and I jumped into the raft and we'd ride the waves head on for some good ups and down, but usually this would cause our little raft to turn sideways in perfect timing for the next wave to come crashing down on us. It was so fun because although we'd ALMOST get tipped over, we usually would just get to ride the wave towards the shore! It was like surfing with two people on a comfy soft surfboard. We let the other optometry student couples try it out and they loved it. We are now the super cool surfing raft owners!!
We had fun that Saturday and then Church was the next day. We had every meeting in the sacrament meeting since it was the 5th sunday! Isaac is still a crazy baby and wakes up crying and expecting some grandma to have pity on him and tend to his every needs but slowly ever so slowly he's learning how to deal with himself and teach himself to stop crying and sleep.
Love you all!
