Back in May my family reserved a beach cabin at Crystal Beach for the week of my graduation for a family vacation. Little did I know when we booked it that I would be in the middle of moving to Dallas and starting a new job at the time :) It was a much needed vacation for all of us and we had such a good time!
Our cabin was in the Cobb's Cove addition. This was the first time I have been down to the beach since Hurricane Rita and it was so sad to see how much it has changed but also nice to see all the rebuilding.

I love this picture of mom relaxing by the beach
Ross and Stephanie's Anniversary was on Thursday and we went to eat in Galveston to celebrate! I can't believe it has already been four years!
We met my grandparents (Maw Maw and Paw Paw) in Galveston and celebrated their anniversary too...which is the same day as Ross and Stephanie's.
On Saturday we all left the beach and went to my graduation at Lamar. I almost chose not to walk but I am so glad I didn't. It was fun to walk and celebrate with everyone! I give all the glory to God for helping me get through the Masters Degree program. I couldn't have done it without His anointing!
Two of my best friends, Britni and Carrie, came in on Thursday to the beach and surprised me. I had NO idea they were coming and it worked out that they were able to ride in with Glenn and they drove through Rusk (which is were Steph and Ross broke down on their way to the beach and had to leave his truck to get repaired) and pick up Ross' truck and drive it to the beach for him. It couldn't have worked out better.
I was taking a nap on the couch when they walked in and they woke me up. I was half asleep and so surprised to see them I just screamed and kept asking them, "What are you doing here?" It was such a fun surprise!!! We had so much fun at the beach and they helped out so much with the party...I am truly blessed to have such great friends!

My family loves to play games and we all had so much fun playing washers all week and staying up late playing cards every night.

My cousin Jeff and his son Jaxon. It was so good to see my aunts, uncles, and cousins at the beach because I hadn't seen some of them in a while and it was good to catch up and get to see them before I left for Dallas on Sunday. I was a little stressed about this vacation being that it took a week away from me being able to work in my classroom and apartment in Dallas, but I am so thankful for it now. It was so much fun and the perfect way to end the summer!
