These pictures are from the first couple of weeks of July! In this picture you see my Dad and Hannah being greeted by a Pelican. The fisherman on the pier were telling us that this guy is known for snatching their catches before they can even get the hook out of the fish! He was probably wondering why we weren't fishing! :0)
That Aircraft carrier you see in the background of this picture is called the USS Lexington. This ship was retired or 'decommissioned' in the early '90's. Before then it was used as a training ship for new crews and such. But before that it was an active war ship. My Grandpa Ray was on this ship on her last tour before being used for training. He has tons of neat stories about life on this monster. The greatest thing is that it's right here by our home!
On our tour of the USS Lexington, there was a plaque for some other ship, I'm assuming, but this name caught my eye for obvious reasons! Here's to my littlest sister, Hannah! I love you sis!
Here we are on the Fourth of July at a Hook's game. They are our local Minor AAA baseball team... They lost miserably but we got two fireworks shows! Our friends Brandon and Jenna were in town for the Fourth of July weekend as well.
After we got home from San Antonio, picking up Brandon and Jenna, all that we wanted to do was absolutely nothing! We had a blast of a weekend! We took a pontoon boat out in the morning to try our hand at fishing but we had zero luck... Only gooey catfish to be had... And the wakes were terrible!
