Oh my goodness, I did it again. Another month has passed and no post from the Eisels. That being said I am sure that you guessed it, May was a crazy month.
One of the highlights of May was our 3rd annual trip to Crystal Beach Texas. This year was a little different. Hurrican Ike blew through Crystal beach almost 9 months ago. We had been watching the websites to see the damage, but were not sure what it would be like.
Of course we rode the ferry there. This was a highlight for Landrie seeing as "bird" is one of her favorite words. Very cute unless you ride with her everyday and she feels the need to point out every bird she sees...and, doesn't just say "bird", but instead yells "BIRD, BIRD, BIRD" unitll I comment on the fact that she does in fact see a bird. OK, I guess it is still cute.
Here shi is spoting a bird I'm sure.
Like I mentiond, the hurricane hit this part of Texas hard. This is a picture on the main road of the peninsula. Piles of trees and branches and random garbage. It will take them forever to get back to normal, but they are well on their way.
Here is a picture of a neighborhood that was once house after house after house. Now you can see it is pretty sparce. Some have rebuilt and some are still waiting to be demolished.
Here is a house we came across on the beach. Like the front had been sliced off. 
Here is a shot of our house...great place.
The view off of the front deck. That blue house on the beach is the one that was missing it's front. From the back it looked like they were just missing a few peices of siding.
Landries favorite past time on day 1...eating sand.
I really thought she would figure out that it didn't taste great and be done, but not untill she was pooping sand did she figure that out.
Kylie and Andrew.
The whole gang.
The pool helped with the sand eating a little.
What a great trip!
The girls used the clues that the Easter Bunny left to find their baskets in Landrie's closet...silly rabbit! Note: Kylie is getting lots of use out of the shoes she got for Jamie and Mitch's wedding, yes, check out her shoes!
Easter eggs were colored.
Landrie did not get the dye...just stickers for her.
That crazy bunny put eggs everywhere.
Landrie finally started letting us put ponies in her hair. Hard to see, but you get the idea.
I was so happy to be a part of their big day. Everything went smoothly and turned out to be just beautiful. The only exception...my toast. Talk about a sobbing mess :)
Jenna and Kylie served as flower girls. Kylie got a little nervous and never did make the walk down the aisle. Jenna ended up being escorted part of the way by my brother Conor. Nice improvising Con!
Grandy posing with the flower girls.

My brother Mike and I.
All night Kylie kept asking..."Mom, can I slide on my dress?"..."Not yet" I would reply. Finally after 12 times I caved. "Fine, go for it" And she did.
Kylie was nodding off towards the end. My flash didn't go off, but this is still one of my favorite pictures of the night. She was so tired we pushed a few chairs together and she was good to go.
Here's big sister giving the others a ride in the wagon.
And, just because you're small doesn't mean you don't get to take a turn. Of course, she couldn't move them, but I thought it would be a great picture.
Some sun in their eyes with some great smiles.
