Day 2: Corpus Christi to Houston, TX

So long Corpus Christi, hello Houston...
 
 
The girls LOVED the binders I put together for them. I will try to include a post (soon) about the travel binders I put together. It took me around 3 months to gather everything for them but IT WAS SO WORTH IT!!
 

Nan Ya Plastics... this picture was taken by Shane. He thought it was HILARIOUS! Not sure why? But he kept repeating it over and over and over... maybe he just liked the way it sounded?
 
First stop... Buc-ee's in Wharton, Texas
You know your 1. a Texan or 2. Lived in Texas long enough to know that no road trip is complete without a stop at Buc-ee's!
 

It's just THAT awesome. And the Beaver nuggets they sell are even better. We bought like 3 bags to bring with us to Jersey... lets just say they didn't make it past Virginia. They are THAT good. ;)





Silly Willy
 

I took a picture because at the time, $3.38 WAS cheap. Now we are paying $3.59 here in Atlantic City.
 

Lakewood Church in San Antonio, Texas

I would have LOVED to see the inside of this church!
 
Joel Osteen, the pastor of Lakewood Church, such a motivational and inspiring person.
 
 
Next stop...

 
We've been here once before but only for dinner. This time we were able to enjoy the rides, aquarium, and festivities.
 






Yep, had to include this picture cause it totally made my day... A LITTLE PERSON!! Right there at the next table over sitting in Houston's Downtown Aquarium. :)
 













Our little Texas princess :)
 


















"It's a pir-an-ha" CHOMP!
 




I love Seahorses... can you tell?

Shark Voyage Train Ride
 

She was in awwww... hence the face. Ha ha ha
 

This thing popped up as we went by it and it scared the heck outta me!
 



 







 
Our view of downtown Houston from the top of the Ferris Wheel :) Breathtaking!
 

All of the "stuffies" the girls won at the Downtown Aquarium playing carnival games.
 


Sleepy girl
 

They wore themselves out.
 

This one... was adamant that she NEEDED to watch a movie before bed... lets just say she didn't even make it through the previews. Ha ha
 
The next morning... the views from out hotel room.
 
 I believe the Houston Rockets play at the Toyota Center
