On the Boardwalk

Sunday was Jayson's birthday, so we made reservations to stay the night at the Boardwalk Inn in Kemah. We left EC after church and stopped in Sugar Land for lunch at Jason's Deli, then headed to Kemah. Our plans were for Connor to nap on the way to Kemah, but that didn't happen. I knew once we got there, there would be no sleeping for him, because it was all new to look at.
Here was our view from our balcony. I took this Monday morning before leaving, so there are no people around because the park doesn't open until 10:30.

So once we check in, we headed down to the boardwalk and walked around. It was miserably HOT!!! After walking around and checking everything out, we headed to the string ray reef for a little AC relief.

Then we headed out to the water fountains thinking Connor would like to play in the water. Well he wanted you right with him and wouldn't let you put him down. He just laughed at the other kids and at daddy as he splashed them.

Around 5:00 we decided to go to the room and lay down with Connor hoping we would nap a little before going to dinner and riding rides. Well after 30 minutes of laying in bed with us and rolling around, he finally fell asleep, but only slept for 30 minutes. This boy is so afraid he is going to miss something. So we headed out and went to eat at the Flying Dutchman. We did decide to eat outside so we could watch the boats, but what were we thinking, it was so hot!
Here is our only family shot while eating

Then it was off to ride the rides. Since I am prego, Jayson had the pleasure to ride the rides with Connor
First stop was the carousel
Second, ready to fly the airplanes


Third, ready for the hot air balloon ride

Last stop, was the train ride through the boardwalk. By this time, Connor was so exhausted, he could barely keep his eyes open.
When I meet up with Jayson after the ride, Connor was out on his shoulder. We headed up to the room to give him a bath and put him to bed. Monday morning, Connor slept until 9:00 which never happens. We had breakfast and then checked out and headed to Sugar Land to do some shopping.
We hope you had a wonderful birthday daddy!

By the way, Happy Belated Birthday to MeMe whose birthday was on July 7
