2nd official stop

The Beaumont 3rd Largest Fire Hydrant. This was built by Disney to kick off 101 Dalmations. At the time it was the largest but then two years later South Carolina made a bigger one. And then they were out done by Canadians. 
I'm just kidding this is just one of the many little hydrants. The real one was taken by Jammie and I forgot to get it from her.
Coming soon: The World's third largest hydrant!


First Official Casita '13 Stop

Jeff McKissack loved oranges so much he dedicated his life to building this structure in Houston out of Concrete and found objects ( seems there's one or two of these men on every trip!) 

Besides this sign, there wasn't much else  about oranges. And I still haven't figured out the "show" part. This attraction gets one casita (out of three).

Jammie's B-Day and Father's Day

Brannon told Jammie about his new sibling at her Birthday Dinner


With all the food their, Brannon's favorite item was the rib bone after the meat was gone

I wasn't sure how Brannon would take to the life jacket. You can't tell, but not crying means he loved it!
Jammie took a turn on the tube 

Brannon and Daddy tubing  
Brannon thought floating was so cool! 

Almost as cool as driving the boat for Grampa Bo

The Beach

B and I took a Fast Fun trip over to Corpus. I thought he'd love the water, but wouldn't have anything to do with it. He totally preferred to jump on the hotel bed, eat sand, and look at the ships!

Oyster Bake

We went to Oyster Bake for the first time w/Grampa Bo, Jammie, Aunt Jewels and Molly, and Uncle David. 






It looks like Brannon loved the Oysters, but I don't think he even tried them.
Brannon's first "roller coaster." 
The ferris wheel. 






Uncle David won Brannon a Cow
