San Antonio


The morning we left. They were excited. San Antonio here we come!!!!

This past week we went to New Braunfels(pretty close to San Antonio) for our family vacation. We had a great time. We used some of our vacation points to book this resort.











We went to church with Aunt Dinah and Uncle Steve on Sunday and then went back to SA on Tuesday to do the river walk/Alamo thing.



We stopped to eat.





We planned on going back to the resort to get ready for our date night, but time and traffic don't always work well together. So, we ran out of time and had to just go in the casual clothes we had been wearing all day. We took the kids to Aunt Dinah and the girls so Jason and I could go see the musical WICKED. I had a bottle pumped for David, but we were able to get it so we went to the store to purchase some formula and a bottle. I talked to Dinah during our date and she said that he would have nothing to do with the formula and just cried for about an hour until he just fell asleep from exhaustion of crying. I feel bad for David, but even more so for Dinah and the girls. We met my good friend Heather and her husband Ryan for dinner and went to the show together. Jason worded it like this(and I can't put it better), "It was a totally righteous show."


We got back really late and just hung around at the resort on Wednesday. You know, swimming and napping, but did enjoy some Chuckie Cheese's for dinner. Thursday we were ready to head out again to enjoy SEA WORLD.












We went to a bunch of great shows. I don't think we saw one we didn't like. While we were watching a 3D movie we found our good friends Carrie and Brad. I taught with Carrie in Mineral Wells and they live in Waco now. How random that we ran into them. It was great to see them and enjoy some of Sea World with them.
There was a spray park for the kids. This place was extremely family friendly. There was a unigender changing room. There was even a nursing room. How awesome is that!!! There were little roller coasters and water rides for the kids, and of course roller coasters for adults and an entire portion of the park is a water park with rides, wave pools, and a lazy river. This place has it all.
We went to the Shamu Believe show with Carrie and Brad. It was amazing. Truly, if you have an opportunity to go to Sea World, do it. You will be pleased.









We left New Braunfels just in time to make it back for me to help set up for our Branch Activity. I came home Saturday night late and hurting. I was too pooped to pop. It was a long, eventful, fun fun fun week. One of my favorite vacations so far.
