San Antonio!

This year, we did not plan a big summer vacation. It was just too hot, I had a ton of projects to do, and Ro was busy at work. However, we did end up plan a long weekend in San Antonio...just the three of us...and we had a blast!
We flew down, just because we found GREAT deals on tickets and it was more convenient. So...of course we had to stop and eat in the airport! Laela was such a good helper with the bags and she did great at the check point, so she was able to talk daddy into getting her a KitKat bar. (Funny thing is...I was in the bathroom while this purchase was made. hmmmmm.)After getting in and check-in, we looked around the resort. (We stayed here . Oh man! We would recommend this place to anyone!) Then we headed to the Riverwalk in downtown San Antonio. The first thing Laela saw were the tour boats going through the canal and she had to go on them! It was pretty warm out, but we had a blast! She was all smiles the entire ride. Then off for mexican food where she was starting to go coocoo!The next day we did a little shopping and then hung out at the resort pools. It was fantastic! All of the pools were kid friendly, but there were also plenty of adults. There were intertubes to go down the lazy river and Ro even went on the big "adult" slide. He said he was a little scared, but he made it out alive!Of course we made it to Sea World too! We got there when they opened and it lasted a good four hours. I thought that was pretty good time for the three of us. We got to see the Shamu and sea lion show, as well as ride several rides...like the Shamu roller coaster! (Oh...Laela did not like that one too much.) It was an awesome day and the girls got a nap during the car ride back. :)The rest of our time there was spent at the pool relaxing. We all enjoyed it so much! Laela even took my picture one afternoon. I looked like a beached whale, but oh well. No one cared. We were on vacation. Oh! I almost forgot! The resort made smores every night at 7:00. Seriously. You would just get in line to get your marshmallows, roast them in the fire pit, and then go back to get your graham crackers and chocolate. YUMMMMM-O. I will tell you that we enjoyed those two out of our three nights! Excellent summer, family trip. We WILL go back!
