  Howdy friends! How is your summer going? Here in Houston, it is a horrible heat wave with pretty much no rain in 2 months!!! Temps have been in the upper 90's to 102 with heat indexes upwards of 108!!! It is horrible! There is no way I am taking Makayla out in this, so we have short windows when I can take her out. Usually first thing in the morning or early evening. It's a pain and I wish we could have a nice drenching rain to cool things down. Yesterday, we did have a very brief storm go through, but it only dropped maybe an 1" of rain.. not enough to do anything. Ok, enough weather talk!
  One thing we are getting excited for is our big trip to San Antonio!! We leave next week and will be gone 3 days. Makayla doesn't know what Sea World is, so we are SO excited to take her and show her all the animals! I think I have mentioned that she is very into sea animals and anything ocean related right now, so this will be especially fun for her! This is just the second trip we have ever taken with Makayla by ourselves without our parents being there, so this should be interesting. We are planning on maybe taking her to the Alamo and maybe down to the Riverwalk. We'll see how it goes. One thing I am especially excited about is that Sea World is offering this great deal where you buy a regular one day ticket and get what's called a FunCard. It lets you come back as many times and you want for FREE for the rest of the season!! (Until Dec. 31!) How cool is that?! So if we miss anything this trip, we can just go back whenever we want!! That will be especially nice when we have a 3 day weekend or for Thanksgiving/Christmas break and I need to entertain her! I will definitely post pics and video when we get back!
  I have included some pics and video from our visit to the Aquarium this past weekend. We all got to pet stingrays!! It was AWESOME!! They are so soft!! We also got to see tigers and a huge snake! Makayla had a ball, but when we went outside to ride the train and ferris wheel, that was about all we could handle with the heat and went home shortly after that.
  I will write when we get back from San Antonio and tell you all about our adventures!
