Exploring Corpus Christi

After a week at Pop and Gram's, we came down to visit Justin and spend a week at our apartment. Children and apartments don't really mix, so I do my best to get them out and burn off their energy. We tried out a trampoline park called Get Air with some friends and they really loved this place. They loved jumping off into the foam blocks but they did jump on the trampoline part too.









Like a crazy person, I took the kids to Cole Park to play on a Saturday morning. My days all run together since Justin works every single day so I didn't even realize it was Saturday until I was on my way there. Oh well, there were LOTS of kids for them to play with. Not a bad view when you're swinging!


 We walked out on the pier at the park. Levi found a feather.

Another place we tried out is called Play. It's like a large McDonald's playground. Honestly I've been to one like this in Sugar Land called Stomping Grounds that was better (and they're opening a location in Katy!) but they still had fun. Levi especially loved the ball gun.

He spent most of the time right here!


Mattie set up her own little course to walk along.

 And at least it had a little area that was good for Hailey to crawl around, including this ball pit.


Lastly, a trip here wouldn't be complete without going to the aquarium at least once. I've already taken lots of pictures but occasionally we are here at just the right time to see something different. We actually went again this morning with some friends and got to see divers in one of the tanks feeding the fish, sea turtle feeding time, and we actually watched the dolphin show today. It's so crowded (and hot) in the summer that I never bothered to try and see it but it worked out today. They really seemed to be entertained, Levi in particular. Mattie just wanted to dance to the music but clapped and oohed and ahhed at some of the dolphin tricks.



Now I've got to try and find more things to do! We'll go back to Get Air at some point and Levi has a class at the aquarium and one at the science and history museum this week so we're staying busy and out of the apartment as much as possible! Trying to make the most out of this gap year!
