San Antonio Trip

Our friends, the Bludorns, invited us to go with them to the temple this past weekend. We decided to stay the night in San Antonio so we could make it a fun weekend getaway, and boy it sure was! Dan used his Radisson points to get us all *Free* hotel rooms at the Radisson downtown. It was perfect because it had a pool for the kids to swim in while we were at the temple. Then afterwards we took the hotel shuttle van to the Riverwalk for some delicious Mexican food and ice-cream. The kids (and adults) loved it! Our kids really get along well with the Bludorns' kids so we actually got to have adult conversations while they all played - it was exactly what we needed!
On our drive back up to Austin we stopped in San Marcos to go to our old Kyle ward. It was so fun seeing all our old friends, as well as how HUGE the ward has gotten- Holy Cow!! Natalie was thrilled we were going to church with her friend Emma, and of course was glued to her side for the entire 3 hours.
Our last stop after church was my parent's house for a family get-together to celebrate my FIL, Richard's, birthday. We were pretty worn out by that point, or should I say Dan and I were worn out, while the kids were still going strong! But we had a great time, especially seeing our newest niece Katie! She is the cutest little baby, we are so happy to have her in our family! Unfortunately, I was too tired to take any pictures of Katie or anyone else at the party - wish I had! Hope you had a great b-day Richard, that was some great ice-cream cake!



Thanks to everyone who made this past weekend so much fun, we really enjoyed spending time with all our friends and family. We feel so lucky to have you all in our lives, you're the best!!
