San Antonio

Travis had to go to a medical convention in San Antonio, so we totally mooched and came along with him. Also, good ole Sid and Tam came too! 

We actually didn't tell our kids that their grandparents were coming, and we planned it so that they had a layover in Phoenix where we met up and flew on the same plane to Texas. I will just say, it was a good surprise!







I had never been to this cool city, so we had to explore!

We took a bus tour of the city so we could learn all the history and get a lay of the land



Then we found a Mexican shopping and eating area. Grandpa is just one of the girls!




Then we of course had to check out the river walk

 It was pretty amazing!









We then found out about a creek outside of the city and had to go and explore. We country folks can't stay very long in a big city. We played for hours!









This little boy was a trooper and he often times had to sleep on the fly!
 We found rocks in the creek

We also found a really cool park in the middle of the city and made some friends. My dad and I played ping pong with a random guy we met. It was fun!









 Then we found a really fun popsicle store around the corner, Leo had his first bite of popsicle and loved it!


One of my favorite nights was when we played till dark at a park, and we walked over to these food trucks. It was after 9pm and we were hanging out with the bar crowd. We be crazy! And yes, we have 4 kids! The fish tacos were great!


We had to do the touristy thing and go to Sea World. We mostly stayed on the water park side because it was super hot! I went on a tube slide with my mom and dad and Avery, and it was so fun. I laughed like a little kid because one of the drops was pretty fast!






After Sea World, we found some amazing Texas BBQ! 


I can see why Texans are obsessed with Texas, they have some major pride and patriotism here! We had a great time with Sid and Tam! I couldn't have come here without them (since Travis was at his conference a lot). Thanks for dealing with our crazy mom and dad! We love you!
