This is where we are staying in Gulf Shores, Alabama on the west beach.  We are very close to the shore.

Cousin Holly, Aunt Helen, Daddy relaxing, while I am out playing with the big kids.  

I like to fight no matter where I am.

I had a blast playing with Kennedy and Quan.Quan is Kennedy's boy friend and he and I have become fast friends.

We caught a starfish in this bucket.

That is Jensen in the pink shirt.  She played with us too. 

Snack time.  We had a big tent to provide us with shade.

After spending the day on the beach, I ate a big bowl of cereal, then I fell asleep while Mimz was preparing for dinner but when it was ready, they could not get me to wake up, so they just let me sleep.  They had hamburgers prepared on the grill.  I have been eating very well, I guess I am making up from my little bout of illness.   I did wear sunscreen, but my checks still got a little bit pink.

Everyone is having a great time.  Daddy and Donnie joined a gym for the week and they go workout every day.  They really enjoy that and each other.  Mimz said everyone is impressed and complimentary of my manners and sweet personality. I love the beach but my eyes are sensitive to the salt water.

Back in Tomball, GGM and Barbara shopped at Sams Club and then came outside to a dead battery.  They got a new battery and made it home without further incident.  Texas heat is very hard on batteries.

At my Taekwondo studio they had a special class on Sunday from 4 to 6.  Barbara went for the first hour of instruction. The second hour was sparring.   An old instructor is back in town for a month and he came to teach a class.  Barbara likes all four of my instructors and she liked this one also.  They all teach a little differently and they all are good.  This instructor focused on teaching good form on basic kicks.   Barbara wished I could have been there.  He helped everyone improve.  A good thing he did for the little kids, was when they were kicking him, sometimes he would be knocked over.  He is a very tall man and when he fell it was impressive.  The kids felt like they could conquer the world.
