We woke up on Wednesday the 10th, had breakfast and while the girls watched TV we finished getting everything packed up so we could head home. We took a leisurely pace because I wasn’t feeling so great and around the time we were getting close to Houston I realized I had left my wedding rings and a necklace in the nightstand!!!! I felt so stupid, but Mike was kind (as always) and said, “Let’s make it an adventure.” He suggested that we grab the jewelry, have lunch on the water and then get back on the road home. So we turned around and did that. We had lunch at Jimmy’s on the Pier and it was wonderful. The girls practically inhaled the fried pickles and the size of the entrees was huge. I was glad that the girls split a burger and then Dani and I split a big salad. It was nice and cool with the breeze blowing and the sound of the ocean to relax us. So my mistake worked out just fine, whew!
The girls did great on the drive as they always do. Once we got home the girls had a good time winding down and playing with the toys they had “missed” while at the beach. Then it was time for bed – especially for me.
