Yogurt, Beach, and German Fest!

Ian continues to love "helping" in the kitchen. Last Wednesday, Ian enjoyed helping make some of Uncle Mike's homemade yogurt. We make a huge batch of yogurt at least once a month. It's yummy ... especially with berries!
Ian also enjoyed wearing his Bob the Tomato apron from Uncle Andy & Aunt Beth! :)
On Saturday, we headed down to Galveston. Despite how it looks, Ian (and all of us) loved the ride over to Bolivar Peninsula. Sadly, the porpoises weren't as abundant as they were last month.

Then, we went to Stewart Beach.
Lots of other people had the same idea! :)
Aunt Chelsea played in the water with Ian.
Ian liked running through the water


and jumping when the waves came up. (see video)


We all played in the water,
enjoyed finding sea creatures (anyone know what these are??),
built sand castles,


digging in the sand,
and admiring other people's masterpieces!
What a fun day at the beach!
Notice the girl laying down by the sea creatures. Ian spent time watching her and then decided that he should do the same.
On Sunday, we went to the German Festival in downtown Tomball. (Great idea, Aunt Chelsea!)




Ian loved walking on the train tracks and seeing a train go by, and we all enjoyed the yummy food!
Kim's favorite was apple strudel,


Matt liked the brat with sauerkraut,
Ian enjoyed the Doritos,
and Chelsea said that the root beer was the best she's ever had!
Ian was absolutely enthralled with the Alphorn (see below). Admittedly, it WAS really cool

What a fun afternoon! :)

You guys always have so much fun! It renewed our desire to come visit! Henry's eyes lit up when he saw you guys on the red caboose, he loved that Ian has a RED apron, and he was excited that he was using a wisk (something he got to use on eggs just this morning!)
Miss you!
