Mike and I celebrated 20, TWENTY, years of being married. To enjoy this milestone, we headed to San Antonio, Texas. It was a place neither of us had been.
It was awesome, we stayed in the heart of the riverwalk area and we were able to walk to the sights and the restaurants. We went early one morning to see the Alamo before the crowds and the heat.
It was a lovely 4 day trip filled with food and relaxation!
We had the best brisket of our lives at Pinkerton's BBQ. It was so good we went back a second time!
Back at the homefront the kids all enjoyed their own adventures. Noah was home recovering from Germany and taking care of the cats. Sam went and got golf clubs and went golfing with Bampa. And Isaac went to Michigan with Bamma and did some projects with pops. The night before our return, Sam and Noah were on the own. We told them we would give them money for dinner. Naturally they went to Jimmy John's and got the MOST amount of food they could stomach.
We got back home and settled in for a bit before the 4th of July festivities. The cats enjoy people being home, and enjoy the new placement of the bird feeder right in front of the big window.
We found a new haircut place for the younger two. Isaac got his first fade and was very happy with it!
Then Sam headed up early in the holiday week to spend his own time at the lake. He got many important lessons like how to do electrical work and golf cart driving.
He enjoyed some boat rides with cousins too!
And when you are with your grandmother, there is nightly ice cream eating. I think he enjoyed himself!
The rest of us endured a crazy traffic ridden trip of 4.5 hours to get up there, but we finally made. The pic are all out of order but you get the idea. Lake fun!
