Family

This weekend Robin, Joe, Kylie, and Alyssa came to visit and it was definitely a time to remember. We went to Galveston to have fun at the beach, get a little sun, and get our feet attacked by little sea creatures. Alright, we didn't go to the beach expecting the last one but it happened!

Since Joe and I didn't have any success catching the fish jumping out of the water, we decided to try to catch crabs! Actually, when I say "we," I mean Joe. He was the only brave one to put his hands on the ocean floor and let the crabs bite him. (I got bitten once on my right hand and it was over for me.) It was the wierdest experience having little tiny crabs walking over your feet while biting you every now and then. I still have the sensation of the crabs walking across my feet. Just imagine large spiders walking across your feet and you can feel the sensation.

The crabs definitely made it an experience to remember and I am glad we went back in the water (it wasn't until the 3rd time in the water to get bitten). Three girls (Diana included) were chicken and didn't even let their feet touch the ocean floor. Two girls have good excuses, I don't know about the other. :)
