Mini Vacation in Kemah

August 19, 2013 by Mellie Dee 6 Comments

Hola Doodies! Teehee

I’ve been so busy lately due to brother being in town. Yes. I know I’ve said that for the last couple posts but … he’s gone now so blogging should resume back to normal. But who knows.

Mum and I have been cleaning the kitchen drawers, pantry, and living room. Woof … so tired. My room is next!

Friday was my day off … holla! And I finally got a haircut. It’s not much of a difference (best picture I could get). Just three or so inches off the ends (no more dyed parts!) and better looking bangs (not ones I chop off myself).

Loved the place I went to called Beauty Brands. It’s kind of like Ulta. I was told this place was pretty great so I took a chance and … I loved it. Question is, should I use the same person next time or experiment with someone else. Hmm …

Friday night, the family went to Kemah (for the first time for some of us!) as a mini vacation. Tammy and June have already been.

The water looks nice … but it was actually muddy green. Gross. haha

We put in $5 in the crab machine and on my first crabbing I got this Hello Kitty (which I gave to Tammy to give to Sammi when she got back to Dallas. Then June and I got Dippin’ Dots. Mint Chocolate Chip and Strawberry which I shared with Mum.

We bought tickets to the Stingray Reef where we got to feed and touch the stingrays! They were very smooth and not at all slimy. Picture touching velvet. Feeding them were kind of tough. Where I thought was their mouth was actually their gills. If I could go back, I’d feed them correctly.

We were kids in the candy store. We bought gummies and jelly beans and after we paid, we sat outside and at them! It was cute seeing Mum dig for different flavors of jelly beans.

Lightouse Buffet Kemah
#3 Kemah Boardwalk
Kemah, TX 77565

Buffet Dinner | $13.99 (I think)

I’m not a fan of buffet but it’s always easier than figuring out what everyone wants to eat. This wasn’t any different. Buffets are not for me. The food wasn’t as great and in reality, I’d rather go to a restaurant, order what I want, and take home what I cannot finish. With buffets, I eat one dish and usually am done. But everyone else that was there seemed to like it. Picky eater, maybe?

Monday’s are always a drag. But we got this!

    DIPPIN’ DOTS! Those things were my obsession when I was little. haha. I don’t know why I was so mesmerized by them but I begged my mom at every theme park to let me get some.
    I’m glad you had a fun weekend with your momma! And I’m loving the bangs. (:
