That is what we decided to do last weekend. It was a bit of a surprise for Josh for Daddy's Day (but secretly, we all wanted to get outta here!). He had 3 options to choose from. 1. Go to Houston area with just me and get really fabulous seats to see Sting with the Philharmonic Orchestra 2. Go with the whole family, get lawn tickets/have picnic to see Sting and go to Six Flags Splashtown 3. Go to Galveston Island for the weekend and do NASA museum, Schlitterban waterpark, the beach.
He picked #3 ('cuz he is such an incredible family man and knew it would be a blast- yeah!)
So, we were off.
NASA was neat. Not sure if the girls were too thrilled, but we had fun. The girls looooved, loved, loved the beach. They were a bit nervous about the waves (especially after Hannah got bitten by a crab), we pigged out at awesome restaurants, baked in the sun for 7 hours with a zillion other people on water rides at Schlitterban, explored the historic downtown Galveston (old ice cream shop/boutiques/gift shops/cafe's). We were then heading home and discovered a cute boardwalk town on the water near Houston called Kemah. It was surrounded by huge yachts, games and rides. We rode the ferris wheel! Remember those?
