San Antonio

We have wanted to visit San Antonio since we moved to Texas.  My husband went years ago on a business trip, but he was alone.  We wanted to meet up with the Houston family so the stars aligned for us all to be together for Memorial Day weekend!

We decided to stay in the Lake Canyon area and found a cute little house with a nice deck with a ping pong table and where the deer came up to the fence for us to feed them.  The boys were in heaven!  We enjoyed exploring the area...


On Sunday, we met up with Daniel, Mandy, Elliot, Michael and Liz in San Antonio for a day of exploration!  We started off at the Alamo to learn more about Texas history and the intense pride for this great state!

We walked on the river walk and took a boat cruise and also visited Mi Tiera (a great Mexican restaurant/bakery) where the kids got some yummy USA cookies in honor of Memorial Day!



More family pictures...







Sunday was a long day so we took it easy on Monday morning and then went to the children's museum in San Antonio (The "Do"seum).  We couldn't decide between the water park or Sea World or the museum, but this was the best choice!  It was the BEST children's museum that I have been to...it had several floors of exhibits and an outside part.  B and M enjoyed becoming spies while W and K loved the little town that had an HEB grocery store, bank, food truck, trolley, an airplane, AND a skid steer with a digging area made up of rubber tires.  Here are my little construction workers hard at work!







It was such a great trip...fabulous food, family and FUN!!!

  2. This looks to have been a wonderful trip for everyone! It was so nice of you and Jack to pull it together so that everyone had a chance to be together before Michael and Liz head out. Can't believe Kate - she is turning into a little girl and not a baby anymore.
