San Antonio- Day 3

We spent day 3 of our San Antonio trip out at the Cairn's Ranch!  Well, okay, it is not in San Antonio, per say, and probably not technically a ranch, but it is so fun to say :)
We love spending time with Jennie's parents.  And you might say they adore Hannah, so we are always welcome to their home.  We had some great food, great fellowship and time relaxing.  I remembered to take more pictures this time. The bottom one shows how much Ana really likes Hannah.
Thanks to both the Smiths and Cairns for a great weekend.  We love you!

San Antonio- Day 2

We spent our second day in San Antonio with our friends Jennie and Steve and thier kids Ana and Bennett.  We ate some great Mexican food and just hung out.  The kids played well together and Jennie and I rejoiced in our love of our Kitchen Aid mixers!  Once Hannah got over her suspicion of Steve, he became her favorite jungle gym :) I do regret not taking any pictures of anyone else- sorry!

San Antonio- Day 1

We went to San Antonio this weekend- because, you know, we haven't traveled at all in 2011 yet.

Our first stop was to Jordan and Mari Gentry's wedding reception.  They got married in Hawaii!  So Marsh and Sally thought everyone in San Antonio should be able to celebrate as well.  It was lots of fun seeing so many Gentrys in one place.  We failed to get any pictures of the bride, groom, or anyone in that immediate family- but here are the ones we took with Gary and Mel. 

Our trip to Texas

Here was our first stop in Texas: Tyler. Mimi took us to my favorite place- Mercado's. Then we had some banana pudding- Mimi sure does love her grandson! We had a good sleep, went to WalMart, then ate at Taco Bueno (yum!).

We then drove to San Antonio. We checked-in to our hotel, then met our friends Jennie and Steve for dinner. We went to La Fogata and had a great meal. They had great outdoor seating and fun fountains. We then went on a tour of San Antonio and ate ice cream. Then off to the theater to see Star Trek.

Aaron went to his conference on Thursday, then we went out to Boerne, TX, to see the Smith and Cairn families. Here is a fun picture of them all together. We had a great dinner and wonderful fellowship together.

On Friday, Aaron was again at his conference and I went to Sea World with Jennie, Ana and Bennett. The above picture when we were waiting for the Shamu show- we even got splashed at the end! The water park was very fun and I only got a little sunburned on one shoulder.

That evening we (Aaron's conference group) were given a private tour of the Alamo. It was quite impressive, even if a little warm.

After our tour, we met the San Antonio Gentrys for dinner. We walked down to the river and had some great bar-b-que. Here we are: Sally, Leslie Marshall "Marsh" Gentry, Leslie Nicole Gentry, and Aaron. I had only met them a few times, but it was a great chance to fellowship and learn about each other.

On Saturday, Aaron wasn't feeling too good but went onto the final conference meetings. We were then off to Houston to the Brack's. We were happy to see, not only Collin and Amanda and the kids, but also David and Betty! There was a great Italian meal and pictures of the Brack's trip to Europe. Aaron felt terrible on Sunday morning and had a fever of 102. Amanda thought he might have the flu- swine flu! But the test turned out negative and so we were off for home.

I had to drive all the way home from Houston. This was not an easy task because I usually go to sleep as soon as I get in the car! But we made is home safe and sound after lots of stops to keep me awake. We had a great trip but are glad to be home. I will update you on our July 4th celebration later.
