I know I have been really bad about posting lately, but you will have to forgive me as it has been a busy month. My Mom was in the hospital for a couple weeks after a routine procedure gone bad and we were all stressing over that. Not more than two weeks after that happend I took a trip out to the NJ office and spent a week between Philadelphia and NJ.
It was a great trip, I enjoyed the time I got to spend with Kelsey, Kevin and Annalise and look forward to seeing them again in August. JC and the kids survived without me for a week and the house was even clean when I got home :)
The day after I got home Renetta (JC's Mom who lives in Oregon) came down for a visit. She had been up in Dallas watching Steve and Jens kids (JCs step brother/sister in law) and she came down once they returned from their trip. It was the first time since we have been married that Renetta came to stay with us and we got to just enjoy her being here. Last time she stayed with us when Caitlin was born, but there was so much going on all I remember wanting to do was sleep :)
It was so much fun having the kids get to know who "gma netta"was, webcam just does not do the same.
In the midst of all of this it was also Tylers b-day. My little boy is 7 now, I can't believe it. So we celebrated Sunday night with his favorite dinner "Dads famous enchiladas" and delicious chocolate cake. Famous in our book atleast :) Tyler was happy because it all ended in getting new wii games.
Tuesday we decided to take a trip down to San Antonio. And we are so glad we did. We have been living here in Austin for a year and a half and this is the first time we have been down there to actually visit the city and enjoy it's great history and beauty. We took a stroll around the Riverwalk:
(I know these pictures just dont do it justice, but it was so pretty, once of these days I will get my camera fixed :)
We also got to see the Alamo:
After the Alamo we had to get a cool me down snack. We all got ice cream out of the vending machine and Caitlin liked to wear it as much as she liked eating it:
We finished the evening off with a great dinner at a restaurant on the riverwalk and later read a bedtime story about the real Davy Crockett and how he ended up being one of the many men who gave their lives at this famous battle. It was a fun day and I am glad Renetta was here so we had a good excuse to go down there.
