Girl's Beach Weekend

A few weekends ago I headed to Galveston for a girls weekend with my family. 10 women in a beach house = lots of fun. We had a blast enjoying each others company. I just love my family and am so blessed to have them all in my life.


We also drove around town to look at these amazing trees:

Hurricane Ike visited Galveston Island with devastating results for the people and infrastructure. 40, 000 trees were killed during the storm surge on the island leaving the landscape bare. In an unusual and creative action Galveston Island Tree Conservancy member Donna Leibbert found chain saw sculptures to create dead tree sculptures from the dead trees in the historic district. What was a terrible eyesore and reminder of the horrors of Hurricane Ike now is a charming visual sight to the eyes! If you are visiting Galveston soon you must tour the city to see these beautiful works of art!
