B: Iconic to beach towns everywhere are touristy souvenir shops selling everything beach related that you could possibly imagine. If you have been to Port Aransas, Texas, you will know that there are three large sharks in front of souvenir shops used to draw you in. I think the motto is "the bigger the shark, the more customers". It worked on us... We were drawn to the largest shark for a quick and silly photo opportunity.K: Brandon really wanted a picture next to the giant seahorses. He kept ... View the Post
A Trip to the Docks
B: Marina docks are a magical place. If these boats could speak, they would contain stories of far-fetched fish tales left for the interpreter to discern fact from fiction. Every great sea-worthy movie contains a white and navy blue stripped long sleeve tee. Merely seeing someone wear such a shirt takes the mind to a nautical setting, such as the shirt Humphrey Bogart wears while he steals Audrey Hepburn's heart in The African Queen.B: While perusing the docks, we discovered a huge of flock ...

Beach Bag Essentials for Two
K: Although our time at the beach was short lived (and entailed a day of gloomy weather), Brandon and I were still excited to pack up a few beach essentials to make the trip enjoyable for the two of us. We've complied this post with our beach bag essentials for two, like this giant beach towel that actually fits both of you. Or this fantastic donut frisbee so that you can get active on the beach. Oftentimes, as females, we focus on our own needs within a bag, leaving our ... View the Post
Misty Morning Beach Walk
K: Brandon and I are the epitome of early risers. Our weekend at Port Aransas beach was no exception and we were on the beach before 8 AM. Unfortunately, the weather was not on our side during our stay, with perpetual gray skies and misty mornings. Nevertheless, we made the most of our time together and insisted on daily beach walks and trips to town. B: Tara absolutely loves the beach. Her addiction to chasing tennis balls coupled with the soft, cool, sandy beachscape, makes this the ... View the Post
West Texas Weekend: Camping Date
B: Big Bend National Park is the fourteenth largest park in the United States, encompassing 801,163 acres. Driving through this geologic wonderland, we experienced stark elevation changes from flatland prairies to steep volcanic cliffs. The Chios Basin Campground is actually located in the center of an extinct volcano deep in the heart of the park. Hiking trails of all experience levels and distances branch outwards, making it the center of many park ... View the Post
West Texas Weekend: Big Bend Hike
K: After our first night of camping with friends, Brandon and I set out for a hike on the Santa Elena trail. In my opinion, this is the most scenic trail in all of Big Bend. We went last year and I knew that we'd have to take our friends this time around so that they could enjoy the jaw-dropping views of this slot canyon. It's a fairly short hike (about an hour and a half) and it did not disappoint the second time around. B: I am a true Texas boy, loving all aspects of the state, including ... View the Post
