San Antonio....

A couple weeks ago, we took a trip to San Antonio. On the way we stopped at Buc-ee's in Luling (my favorite one if you were wondering). It was the perfect rest stop.....except for the fact that your don't take a hungry pregnant wife to buy a few items.

We arrive in the Alamo City and check into our hotel room (on the 34th floor). It was a great view of the city.......and allowed Madelyn to spot buses (one of her favorite things to do) whenever she felt like. The hotel was in a great location....one block from the convention center and right next to the mall. I wasn't planning on shopping this trip, but with the cooler weather.....we needed to buy Madelyn a few items to stay warm. Of course the joke of the weekend was "How could Bethany pick a hotel that is right next to a mall? What was she thinking?"

On to the fun stuff....Madelyn and I were able to take in a few sites while in San Antonio. We visited the San Antonio Zoo (for those wondering, it is 10X better than Houston's), The Alamo (3 or 4 times), stopped by a few museums, took a few trips down the River walk, and of course watched some college football.

Below are a few pics from the weekend.....

If you could only have seen Madelyn's face before and after this picture....
