Day 4 (Has it really only been 4 days?)

Sigh...Day 4, Friday - We drove to San Antonio to visit our friends Cliff and Katie...



This is Brooke, she is only 1 week older than Christian..they are going to get married someday, this is what Katie and I have decided at least







This is Andrew - Drew - he is 4 months (?)



Katie and a really cute baby (I want one!)



Happy Cute baby




Haden in the pool




Bubba in the pool


Little Ms. Brooke, this girl is brave, she just jumped right in with this life vest on..


Brothers playing..





While we were at the pool, Daddy Cliff arrived home from work, a very long grueling day at the office....ya know there is a war going on right?






Look at my shoe..I think there is water in it...




Ummm...I am thirsty, let me drink it, it looks yummy




Got to get down in there deeper to get all of it


I little bit later, we got ready and traveled to the Riverwalk...






Story later about the glasses...




Cliff and that really cute baby again...


Scenery


Boys


The Alamo





Boys in front of the Alamo...GOD BLESS TEXAS!




Cliff and Katie were unbelievable..he has this back carrier


and she has this front carrier...I dont know how they do it, but they do it all the time! It hurt my back just watching them! Is this hat pink? What kind of self-respecting marine would let his son wear a pink hat!!



Haden in front of Alamo



Kaelen mingling with the natives


Brooke petting the horse, what you dont see are pics of before hand when there was NO way she was touching that horse...





Haden being brave




The gang


OK, so we stopped and got ice cream before we left..they had a machine that spits out eggs with prizes..we got some red lips....Christian decided to eat his ice cream with the lips...






Not sure what to say here..I guess he just couldnt stand the excitement of it all!!








Cute baby eating ice cream and really liking it



Drew just being cute (I want one!)

Another funny thing that happened at the Riverwalk occured when we were in the mall area..we are walking along and this guy is walking and just trips and falls flat on his face and then stumbles back up and is obviously VERY intoxicated...everyone thought it was hysterical...a few minutes later we see him sitting on the sidewalk talking to the cops, this guys was so toasted it was unreal...
Anyway, later this night we drove to San Marcos and got a hotel room. We needed our rest for the Outlet Mall the next days....Ummm...Outlet Mall..it is HUGE! Makes Momma T very happy....

Day 4

I hope I haven't forgot everything we did that day! Sorry for the delay in posting, I know you have been waiting excitedly, like for a new episode of Lost..

I have been trying to download for a few days now but having trouble with the computer at work..go figure

OK, Day 4, Thursday, I did not buy admission to the park that day, but there were some free things we could do, we found this neat pool and got Christian in...

Haden jumping







Big boys can have fun too...





OK, so after the pool, we got some lunch..I had really been wanting to get a pizza from a place they had at the Schlitterbahn and finally go to do it....it was ok










The boys watching people go down the slides in their toobs



So, off to the room to change and so forth then off to my parents campsite for some river fun..

As I have mentioned numerous times before, Christian has a fascination, almost obsession with throwing things in bodies of water...its kind of scary, he literally did it the whole time we were there, like 4-5 hours, throwing rocks that is, a few times, he tried grabbing other things, but we were able to catch him before more electronics got ruined



He slowly made his way down to the water and of course sat in it...


I believe he is actually trying to eat a rock...





He was in a good picture taking mood this day...



My parents had an inflatable tube so Haden tried his hand at some toobin





Further still, with very wet diaper..


Assistance please







Wall worthy...




Haden was fascinated with the tent, actually I think it was more the aired up mattress inside...

Big brother taking little brother fishing....



Kaelen cursing me under his breath b/c I keep taking friggin pictures...

Foot shot...(this may have been the only time I sat down the whole trip)




OK, so this is a bunch of stuff, but we did more that I didnt get pics of...my mom and I went to Gruene and walked around

Kaelen and I also went toobin down the river for about an hour, he took his fishing pole and caught this...





Overall is was a lot of fun..

Here are some pics of Poppa T, not happy with me snapping as usual.....




Last shot of Christian, we finally had to change his diaper.....



Thats it you say?

Of course not....as I mentioned earlier, on the way back to our room, as we were driving along, 2 deer ran out in front of us, Chris hit his brakes and one flew right on by but the other ran right into the passenger side doors where Christian and I were sitting...

It was pretty scary for a moment, but all is well, it could have been so much worse and everyone is ok...Poppa T is pretty peeved about his dents...

Whooo....I think that is it for now....
