from christmas through new years

i found chainsaw and velcro holding hands!
oh yeah, that's disturbingly cute!
hey, mongo! mongo says, "welcome to texas; pet me!"
dad!
to the beach on a foggy morning! this is a national park to save the natural beach ecosystem. it was founded in the Johnson administration.
deer tracks along the beach.

looking for sea shells
found one! yep, i've gone from 4ft of snow to a tank top!

here's a jellyfish and some shells i found.
jellyfish!
another jellyfish!




argh! there be barnacles, matie!

palm trees everywhere!

the area around the beach is natural too.
what's this?
the visitor's center
on the ferry. "44 childs"?
delicious food was the name of the game that week!
champagne for christmas eve!
hey, daddy!
oil, water, and soap.
meatloaf!
sunrise on the beach (still not clear skies!)
mongo thinks the beach is ok, but i don't think it's his favorite.
color in the sunrise.

downtown corpus christi!
to the texas state aquarium! tx is first in dealth penalty, bad education, and jackass-attitudes, let's see how there aquarium stands up... (actually it was "ok" but pretty sad that it's the state's aquarium, probably worth $10, but not the $17 they're charging)

ibis and spoonbills









the U.S.S. Lexington.


otter! always an adorable favorite.

a redundant inn motel.
trimmed mongo's nails, and dad got one too short. it looks like paint, not blood.

finally a sunny, clear day at the beach!

"i wish i was a headlight on a northbound train" a line from a GD song.

MAN-OF-WAR!!!!




sea foam
just think, it was in bubbles like these where lipids, amino acids, and nucleotides were first mixed together to create life!!

happy toes
hehe, "sundries." i love finding old words on things!

for new years i walked to melissa's. this is a special moment where jules, the big one, is hugging the new kittie, lizzy.
