Kirk and I decided to take the kids on a little road trip to San Antonio this weekend. Kirk will be leaving next weekend to move to Houston for a month to start his graduate degree at the University of Houston. This is a great program that will let him take classes over the next three summers and earn his degree. We are excited for him, but will miss him while he is gone taking classes! We decided it would be fun to take the kids to Fiesta Texas as our season passes work here too:) The drive was long, but honestly not as bad as I expected.... you see, Jones is quite loud in the car and typically hates car rides. I know you must be asking yourself why we chose a road trip knowing how Jones is, and the answer is.... it is worth it. I want to spend time with the fam and make some memories, so we are just going to have to deal with Jones' little attitude in the car. Luckily, he didn't do too bad and we made it just fine.... trying not to think about the ride home just yet......

Here are a few pics from today's adventures.We head to Fiesta Texas in the morning where we will spend the day, River Walk tomorrow evening, and then to the pool at the hotel for a late night swim and more smores! We are staying at the most amazing hotel and I have a little Internet secret that gets us into this hotel for the price us middle class peeps can afford. You just have to be willing to be a little embarrassed when you pull up in your middle class car and everyone else around you is in Lexus, BMW and so on..... it is well worth the embarrassment to me.

Within the first 30 min of being here, Harrison said: "Mom everyone who works here acts like a servant!" I smiled and said, yes, honey... that is why you need to be super nice and say thank you as much as possible:)

It took us three hours of no talking, no looking at Jones and Playing Enya in the car, but we FINALLY got Jones to Sleep.... for about 20 minutes

Hanging out at the resort pools, making smores!

Jones liked them too!
