If you haven't figured it out, we did a lot of traveling this summer (and the best trip is yet to come!). It seems like we were barely home. After returning from Chi/MO, a few days later we hopped in the car and drove down to South Padre Island. I had never been there before, but James had. We left on Saturday, later in the day then planned, of course! We arrived in Padre, got settled in our room and then took a little stroll on the beach. After we smelled the sea air, splashed our feet in the water and stretched our legs (6 hr + car ride) we called it a night.
The next morning James took off to get our breakfast and his newspaper (his interests were probably in the reverse order!). After eating, we got ready and went to church and Walmart. We picked up some drinks and snacks for the day. We sunscreened up and headed to the pool. It was fun to just sit and enjoy ourselves. James consumed rum, lime and sprite, and given my condition, I experimented with propel and lime. They actually went well together. I was disguising my condition and the lime made the propel "look" like an alcoholic beverage. If you read this post, you will have to ask James how his afternoon around the pool in Padre was. He was hilariously drunk!!
Oh yea, the whole purpose of this trip...I was doing a 45 minute presentation on Monday. So given James' condition and my condition, we called it a night pretty early on Sunday. I woke up for my morning presentation and then we were on our way back towards Kyle.
It isn't often that we can just "drop in" at the Dubuisson house so we added about 30 minutes onto our trip to visit the fam. We had a lovely dinner at Olive Garden and 3 hours later we were back home!
