San Antonio...

Wow! So much to blog about!

Justin, Colten, Aubrey, and I had a WONDERFUL trip to San Antonio for the bowl game.  Despite missing Claire like crazy it was a perfect trip.  We decided to leave Claire so that the two big ones could have some one on one attention from mom, and dad. It is always harder for them to truly get attention when she is around as she needs full attention from one of us.  She enjoyed a "grandma vacation" and was thrilled to see us when we returned.

Here the two big ones are waiting for our flight out of Manhattan.  So nice to be able to fly in and out of there.

Day one was spent at Ripley's believe it or not.  The kids really enjoyed it and learned lots of fun facts to take back to school.  After that we hit a 4D movie.  It was AWESOME.

Then we headed to Dicks for lunch.  The kids thought it was hilarious that they could be mean back to the waitor and that they did not have to say please or thank you.  They are still talking about it.

Our second day was game day.  We went to a mirror maze, and a lazzer maze.  Needless to say they loved this too!

Lunch was at the Rainforest Cafe.  Another hit for sure.

We tried to take a good picture on the river walk ourselves however neither turned out that great.

Despite the outcome of the game we had a blast.  We were thankful that the game was inside.  It rained most of the day so we were glad to stay dry.

Our final day brought sunshine and SeaWorld.  What a treat!

The kids were SO excited to be at SeaWorld.

While dad tried to figure out the park the kids rode small rides.

We looked at crocodiles.

Followed by Penguins.

Dolphins, and sharks.

They truly have the best relationship.

Justin and I splurged and paid to have them pet the Dolphins.  Ours was named Donley and the kids learned LOTS while petting him.  He was so sweet!

After the dolphin petting we headed to ride the Roller Coaster.  It was HUGE but both kids did great.  Aubrey decided that she was not a big fan but considering it was not even comparable to anything she had been on before she did awesome.

We ended the day with the dolphin, and whale shows. It was AMAZING.  Colten LOVED it and the day was worth EVERY dime spent.

We went back down to the River Walk for dinner and ice cream to celebrate the end of some wonderful time together.
