December Outings

Watching the Friendswood Christmas Light Parade


The Christmas Train


Waiting to board the train...wearing his "Choo Choo" shirt







We made a fun day trip to Galveston: Lunch at The Rainforest Cafe, tour of The Aquarium at Moody Gardens (specifically to see penguins and sharks) and ended our fun afternoon at a favorite spot on The Strand...an old fashioned soda fountain/candy shop!













Michael enjoyed the animated gorillas and elephants at The Rainforest Cafe, but only from a distance...he didn't like being close to them. During the "thunderstorm" he kept saying, "wow." He seemed to like watching the fish in their tanks the best. By the way, he says, "fsh" for fish!

Adam and I were so excited to take Michael to Moody Gardens. We just knew he would love watching the penguins and sharks. Nope, he could have cared less. He wanted to people watch! We could have gone to the mall to do that. Oh well. I know he'll enjoy it when he is a bit older. I on the other hand, could spend all day watching those cute little penguins! :)

If we could ask Michael what his favorite part of this fun day was, I am pretty sure it would be this one...using his newly acquired skill of sucking on a straw to drink Daddy's vanilla malt! :)
