San Antonio Weekend

This was the first weekend that we could get away since coming back from the summer. We always head to San Antonio. There is allot to do there and weather is usually good through the winter months. Maybe we should start mixing it up a little with Dallas and Houston. For this day, we did Sea World.

The Dolphins are a pretty big deal. We can never get the kids away because they love touching them so much. Logan will ride any ride that they allow him on. This is the little Shamu coaster but he loves it. Yes, there were these festive Christmas creatures walking around on stilts. I have never seen something like this before.

These snowmen are the only kind you will find around here.

I couldnt get a great picture of Santa because of course they want you to buy their picture. He was a very cool cowboy Santa. I loved the cactus wreath.

Cute boot tree!

This is one of my favorite coasters. Steel Eel and it just goes up and down all the way for zero gravity feelings. Jordan doesnt usually ride this one but I wasnt feeling too well today so she rode with Jackson. Jackson likes the front row.

Last time we were here Logan was sooooo excited to ride Atlantis because he met the height requirement. He cries when he cant go on rides. So we got up to the top and started down backwards and he just started yelling help, help!!!. Everyone of us was laughing so hard!. It was so fun for us because all six of us were able to ride together. Logan got off and said he did not like it. So today, he wanted to get back on. He said he was not going to yell for help. We got to the top and went backwards and his face got all concerned and he started to yell, homa, homa. That is his word for home. Then we started down the big hill and he was yelling it even louder. We were laughing once again. He gets off and says he doesnt want to ride again. The very next time we go, he will want to ride again!

All the shows were Christmas!

A very sweet candy cane forest.

Austin had to go and cancel the Trail of Lights again this year. So this was our little Trail of lights for the season

JW Marriott in the hill country

I preferred the hot tub today as the sun really wasnt shinning very much.

This is the coolest pool area. The pools were huge and had a lazy river, and lots of slides.

Logan was happy because he was able to go on some of the slides. I was pretty much on the lounge chair all day. I just wasnt feeling well. Was thankful that we got to have a fun weekend away. Love that we have the week off for Thanksgiving. We all needed a break from school, work and scheduled activities.
