My parents and our family had the opportunity to head to San Antonio for spring break this year! It was a blast! We met them in San Antonio Saturday just in time to eat lunch. We had initially planned on going to Rainforest Cafe for lunch, but accidentally didn't get reservations made. So we ended up going to County Line BBQ ( much better, in my opinion! ). The rest of Saturday was spent checking into the hotel, hanging out in the room, then going to the North Star mall. We lucked out there because they had The Cheesecake Factory! We all ate way too much then headed back to our hotel with cheesecake for a midnight snack. The kiddos stayed in Gammie and Pops' room for the night, so Alan and I were able to somewhat catch up on sleep.
Sunday morning we headed to Sea World! Oh my goodness, it was soooo much fun! The kiddos loved it, and so did the adults! We saw all sorts of shows, as well as saw the dolphins (my personal favorite), sharks, penguins, etc. Elizabeth was able to ride her first "roller coaster" with Gammie and really enjoyed it. We can't wait to go back, hopefully sooner rather than later!
That night, David fell asleep in the car on the way to dinner at The Alamo Cafe. He didn't wake up despite moving him out of the car, into the restaurant, and then his head in my lap so he could eat. He finally woke up as we ordered dessert and proceeded to chow down on his dinner and then sopapillas.
Monday morning mom and I took the kids to see Cinderella while the boys went to see some guy movie. They did great at the theater! David got a little restless towards the end, but all in all, it was a successful trip to the movies! I will say, however, the previews before Cinderella were extremely disappointing... They were all for PG-13 movies, and some of them really scared the kiddos. Highly inappropriate for a family friendly movie...
We then did a boat tour of the Riverwalk, walked around some, and then went and had dinner at Rainforest Cafe. David loved it, Elizabeth, not so much. The last time we went, she loved it, but this time all the animals kind of freaked her out.
Tuesday morning we had breakfast at the hotel then headed to San Marcos to visit with my Granny and Aunt Linda. We went to my favorite burger place for lunch, Centerpoint Grill, visited for a while, then headed back to College Station.
My parents stayed the night and then headed back Wednesday after lunch. We had so much fun and are so thankful that Gammie and Pops made such great plans! We can't wait to see them again!
