San Antonio Trip

We went to San Antonio in March to visit Kari, Joel, Carson and Madilyn. It was a double fun trip since we saw sights of San Antonio we had not seen before, and we also got to spend a week getting reacquainted with Carson and Madi. Carson remembers us from trip to trip now, but Madilyn is too little. But she was Grandma's girl by the second day, and Carson wanted to be with us every minute. The weather was perfect, and we had a busy week seeing the sights and enjoying the kids. Some of the things we saw included the Alamo, the River Walk, several museums and Sea World. I didn't realize San Antonio was the home to so many museums. We saw dinosaurs, Texas history, Ripley's Believe it or Not and the Wax Museum (Carson's favorite, especially the "scary guys behind the doors". However, Daddy saved the day by opening the right door.) I also can't forget the superb Mexican food. If we never get back to San Antonio, we will have memories of the fun things there to do. Lots of pictues below.

We rode a boat just like this. It took us on a tour of the RiverWalk. It was Carson's request, but we all enjoyed it.

How do Carson and Grandma measure up with the dinosaurs?

The kids are digging for dinosaur tracks at the museum. Madi loved it.

Outside the Alamo. I could have spent all day there, but we got a good taste of the history. And Grandpa found the Lowes race car at Sea World. Here he is with it.

Here we are at Sea World with Carson and Madi.

You can't really see him, but Carson is riding up high on the little kid Roller Coaster. He loved it.
