Kemah with our cousins

After our week in the Dallas area, we took a trip down to spend a week with my parents in Houston. While down there we took the opportunity to meet up with Robby's cousin Katie and her two cutie pie kids at Kemah (an amusement park/ entertainment area near Galveston). As Katie mentioned in her blog, Jenna and Savannah were adorable walking hand-in-hand everywhere they went.

While there I decided to take Li'l Robby on his first big roller coaster, the Boardwalk Bullet (well, it wasn't that big, but it was wild). We were both pretty excited. I wish I had a picture of Robby's eyes lighting up as he saw it race around us while we waited in line. Well, all that excitement became regret when we were riding it. As with any wooden roller coaster that I have ridden or heard about, it was very rickety. We were shaken around until our heads and backs hurt. Talk about whiplash! Let's just say, I don't recommend this one to anyone, unless they are good friends with a chiropractor!

For the rest of the evening, Li'l Robby and I were glad to enjoy the more tamer rides like the carousel along with the younger ones.

we all also enjoyed this train ride. I did my best to get all the kids looking my direction, but Savannah kept looking forward because she was worried the train would take off without me since I was standing beside it.

We finished off the evening with dinner at Saltgrass Steakhouse. Thanks for a great evening Katie! It was so great to see you!
