okay, i will post a mini report...i will post some pictures later as I am being lazy right now
When we got to Dallas we called my cousin and spent the evening with her. She will be back here in a couple of weeks for my aunt and uncle's 50th wedding ann.
Sunday we went to Six Flags. The kids had a blast. I can't believe some of the rides that Aubrey went on!!! We had a few meltdowns but all in all everyone had a fun time and slept well that night!
Monday we called the ball park to find out that they were doing tours of Ameriquest field. So we went over and Dave was in heaven there as we toured the ballpark. We then watched the Yankees kick some butt! The boys were a little disappointed as none of the players really signed autographs...i think I saw Derek Jeter sign like 4 autographs. After the game we all got ready for bed as we were all excited to be going to San Antonio. We heard a drip, drip, drip....you got it....our ceiling was leaking!!! So at 11pm we were changing rooms!
Tuesday we left and drove down to San Antonio. The kids loved our hotel as it was right on the riverwalk. We just hung out and went on the boat tours. I have got to tell you...that would be a perfect place for a meet! You really don't need a car, hotels are not that bad priced, and there is alot of action right there on the riverwalk! Something to think about for a future meet!
Wednesday we went to Sea World. We were to call one of Trent's friends family to let them know that we were at sea world as they were there the same time. You know, it is funny how you run into people in such a big place. They forgot their phone at their aunts and we were walking out of a show and ran right into them. So we spent the day with them at Sea World. We did do the dining with shamu. I have to say it was just okay. I kinda thought it would be more than what it was, but i am glad to do it once...probably won't do it again though!
Thursday we went back to Sea World and did the water park there. Our friends did the same thing and we all decided that we would do it for a few hours and then go and get cleaned up and then do the riverwalk for dinner together.
We decided that once we got to our hotel that we were going to go to Galveston in the morning so we all settled into bed. At 1am in the morning we woke up to this awful sound...we finally woke up enough to realize it was the fire alarm going off! We collected all of our kids and walked down the stairs to find out everything was okay and someone had pulled the fire alarm.
Friday we check out and start the drive to the ocean. Deena, you can have your houston traffic...it was AWFUL!!!! When we got to Galveston it was worth it and the kids had a lot of fun there. We ate at the Rainforest cafe...the kids were amazed by this one...we only have a smaller version of that one in kansas city.
We drove back up by Dallas on friday...i did see the turn off to Deena's town but i didn't have any of her phone numbers so didn't have anyway of getting with her. I waved at her though as we were going past her turn off!
Saturday we let the kids sleep in and then we got on the road...we did see a 10 car pile up...i have to say that was the first time I ever have seen that big of a wreck. It was a long drive back but we had a good week!
That is our week in a nutshell. I will post a few pictures when i can actually find my camera
