Vacation 2009

Hello Everyone..I know it has been a long time. It seems when we got back from Vacation, life was in full swing again. But, I am back now. And will say Vacation was great! It was different with out Ciera joining us, she was missed. But I will admit it was kind of peaceful, cause the boys were like best friends the entire time. And that does not usually happen, cause they usually are both fighting for her attention. But hopefully, she will join us again for vacation. So we did Market Square, the River Walk, Fiesta TX. Lots of walking, the boat ride, and lots and lots of amazing mexican food! We even took a friend for Jasmine, so that Trav and I could have some time together. So it was a great 30th birthday gift for me, and some much needed family time away from good ole Boyd. But let me tell ya, I had the most humiliating moment of my life at Fiesta Tx! The girls and I had just gotten out of the lazy river and were walking down some steps, and I some how lost my footing, and there I go, it was like slow motion. My feet went up in the air, my legs spread wide open, and my butt hit and bounced 1,2,3 times down the steps before I could stop myself. A group of guys behind me were like "OH My Gosh! Are you ok?" That is when I refused to make eye contact, I took off my flip flops which had blown out on my way down, and I got up and grabbed the girls and walked away..LOL And yes, I woke up with bruises and my back a little sore! Between that and the mild sun burn on my back, I was pretty miserable on the trip back home. The kids had a great time, even though I think their favorite part is the hotel! The boys and Trav rode the roller coasters, and than the twins and Alissa rode something called the "Goliath" and yes it is huge. Jazzy was excited to find out she was too short to get on it, so we took her pic of her pretending she was on. lol And I was too big of a chicken to ride it. The kids went back for a 2nd ride and were 3 people away from getting back on, when the roller coaster broke, WITH PEOPLE ON IT! So, I call that Favor that the kiddos were not on. We left San Antonio with lots of laughs, lots of funny stories and some good ole memories. And looking forward to something new next year.
