The kids and I took a last minute trip up to Fort Worth to see friends. It was so much fun to get to spend time with everyone! I miss living there and getting to be with great friends, but I love being able to live close to family. I don't miss all the traffic and congestion at all!! I just wish we could ALL live in the same place--here, in San Antonio. :)
The drive up I-35 Sunday afternoon was brutal!! Mental note--DO NOT travel I-35 on a weekend! The kids did great though I have to say. I've never been on a trip with them all by myself. We stopped twice for a potty break and we all got to pick out a treat--I think that was their favorite part! We got to New Braunfels and Hudson said that he was ready to go home....sorry buddy! Five hours is a long time to be in the car, but we had movies and the ipad to get us through it. The drive home during the week, was a breeze!!
We stayed at Monica's house and the kids were so excited to stay at a house with a pool in the backyard! We swam A LOT!! Tara and her kiddos came to swim with us one day. I didn't take any pictures of us with friends! Boo! :(
We did A LOT of playing at parks. One day they played at 3 different parks! The church I used to go to, Richland Hills, has an indoor playscape in the atrium. I met Tara and her sister, Aly, there to play. The kids had a blast together and we got to visit without all 7 of them in our faces--plus it was indoors! Win/win!!
The kids were up at the crack of dawn every morning.
Good thing I took the jogging stroller with me--we went for runs every morning. There's a park right down the street from Monica's and the kids loved playing there.
Of course, we had to stop at Braums for dessert one night. LOVE their mint chocolate chip milkshakes!! I think the kids enjoyed their ice cream too!
We also had to have Grandy's one night for dinner--LOVE those rolls!!
I also got to have lunch with my dear friend, Patty, who was having her baby the very next day. So glad she could squeeze a little time in with us. Here's little Camden....precious little boy!
What a FUN trip!! We had a great time, but we were all really missing Daddy. We've never been away from him that long! Thanks for having us Moni! We can't wait to go back to your house!
