Back in the car

So after 2 weeks of non stop taco eating and dying in the sweltering heat and humidity, it was time to get back in the car one last time. 2 adults, and 7 1/2 moth old that is now mobile, 1 cat (who hates riding in the car with every fiber of his body, and he let us know), all of our stuff 1500 miles, 23 long, miserable hours ahead of us.... but we surrvived. No one was killed, left at a rest stop, and we are still married. We have also come to the conclusion, that we will NOT be making that drive again any time soon. We waved to Lori as we passed Auburn and stopped in Sumter SC to Spend the night and visit with Billy, Melissa, and Adi. Billy just finnished basic training/tech school with the Air Force and were sent to SC for their first duty station. They were kind enough to add Grandma Bandley's table to their moving shipment from UT and it made it safe and sound to our house.

What next?

Well after a exhausting day at Sea World, we jumped in the car and drove to Del Rio. Once there, we just relaxed for the week and it was great! We headed back to San Antonio for family pictures. here is one of the cousins I captured on my camera. As soon as I get my copies of the photos I will post some more.

Happy Birthday to ME!!

Happy Birthday to ME!!! Happy Birthday to ME!!! So for my birthday Kevin, Ethan, and I went to Sea World with Grandma and Grandpa Pressgrove.We saw Shamu and the dolphins road a few rides and played at the water park 7 hours of family fun. Again, another day of 100 degrees and humid beyond measure. Why I didn't spend MY birthday with MY mommy. Well, she decided to go to Puerto Rico instead, and not take me. Something about a conference/workshop thingy.. Since when do teachers work during the summer? And on MY birthday!? but I'm not bitter that she didn't take me along. I'll get over it. We had lots of fun

Time at the Park

So Kevin and I decided to take the Barton cousins the park for about and hour or so. We swung on the swings, went down the slides climbed on stuff and played in the gravel. Megan and Jacob decided to be covered in the rocks, then they thought it would be way fun to attempt to cover Uncle Kevin. (Kevin thought it would be a great opportunity to take a quick nap) But they didn't count on Uncle Kevin being twice as tall and a bit more of a challenge, so they gave up and found something else to do

Schlitterbahn

Next stop Schlitterbahn! It is the best water park in the country, that's right number 1. Who says so? Well for starters, the Travel Channel rates it number one year after year... Then there is ME. We went with Grandma Helen and the Bartons. It was great fun and exhausting

Highlights of our trip..

First stop, downtown. Upon arrival, we found a place for cold fruity drink and walked to the Alamo then the River Walk. It was hot and humid, and we were sticky by the end of it.

On the road again....
