Missing it already



The funny thing about leaving Corpus isn't so much that it is a must see destination, but that we had so much carefree fun to enjoy everyday. The kids keep asking when we will go back and truthfully we will be going again when Fernando has his next away rotation there and has a similar set up.

Missing bike rides on the beach just minutes from our hotel:


Missing the abundance of ant free sand to shovel, scoop, and create with:


Missing the Aquarium's children's room full of fun and imagination:






Not really needing explanation, but definitely missed:




Surprisingly missing the small hotel room that made for creative ways to spend time together:




Missing being outside and loving it:

Moments that Matter Most

Now that our time in Corpus is coming to a close (a week after I intended), I think I will miss the carefreeness that we have come to enjoy. We spend most days doing the morning regiment: Make beds (yes, I know housekeeping gets paid to do that, but who wants to deal with that lack of luxury at home), get dressed, read scriptures, say prayers. Then we get to Corpus life: walk downstairs or take the alligator (Talia's pronunciation of elevator) to enjoy Texas shaped waffles, eggs, bacon, muffins, juice, fruit etc, head out for a bike down the beach, may be even get in the water, naps, aquarium, swimming with daddy in the hotel pool. Life is beautiful.
