Riverwalk & Family Pictures...

Next day was down day to hang and relax. AKA...FREE Chic-fil-a!!!! WOO-HOO! I can not tell you how much I love Chic-fil-a and how sad it makes me that we don't have one in Spokane. Anyway, it just happened to be free chic-fil-a day if you come in dressed as a cow. Of course, we had to do it!

 

I would seriously eat there every day if I could. And seriously, their free meals that we got that day, they like go all out!

 

That night our big plans were to do family pictures downtown at the San Fernando Cathedral. I also wanted to see the Riverwalk since everyone told me how cool it was. Downtown San Antonio is so cool. It was just so nice walking around. The weather was nice in the evenings. The City is so cool and has a lot of history and really cool buildings. So much Mexican culture. The Riverwalk is awesome. But first up was the pictures. The Cathedral was so cool, and I think we only spent a total of like 15-20 minutes on the pictures. But they turned out super cute!

 

 

Oh my gosh, I just love that Burton! Kayla is so freakin' photogenic!

 

 

 

 

After we did the family shoot, we had to do a sexy session of just Kayla. I mean, just look at those lips!!! hahaha

 

 

 

 

I'm not sure what Tucker is doing in this pictures. Maybe he was sad that we had to wait like an hour for a table at The Hard Rock Cafe. But it's grandma Kelly's favorite place, and she always wants to go there when we go places, so we waited it out and just hung out by the riverwalk while we waited.

 

And here is grandma and her grandkids...

 

Finally we were in. And, of course, it's a really cool restaurant and we had a great time! And grandma requested her favorite Led Zeppelin!!! HAHA

 

 

And the kids all got milkshakes, which they loved!!

It was a fun day and evening exploring SA and eating delicious foods! :)

SeaWorld Day 1...

The next day was our first Sea World Day!!! Woo-Hoo!!! Kayla and Jason literally live 5 minutes from Seaworld. They have season passes and go all the time. Her ward seriously has play dates AT Seaworld and I am so jealous of that! It was so nice just to be able to relax in the morning since there's no rush to get on the road or anything. The early morning playing with cousins was the best.

 

We got a special pass that lasted like 2 weeks or something. So we knew we were going to go a few different times, but we were still excited! Our first stop was at this really cool dog and cat show, funny enough, since we were at Seaworld. I thought it was pretty random, but Kayla kept on saying how good it was, and it was and the kids loved it! It was pretty cool, the dogs and cats are so amazing, do trick after trick. It was pretty cool and the kids got to go pet the animals after the show.

 

These cute girls had to be twins...

 

 

Next up, this cool dude wanted to see the stunt skiier show. It was SO cool! It is amazing what these people do on skis! And they had one of those cool like jet pack things that shoots them up in the air.

 

I can't believe that I didn't get any pics of the actual show, and if I did, I lost them somehow! Anyway, we got a pic with one of the dudes after. It was really cool, we got a front row seat and got sprayed and the kids loved it! I just wished I was cool like that.

 

After the show and a few rides down the journey to Atlantis ride, we decided head on over to the water park side.

We parked ourselves in the kiddie area and the kids had a great time! Just the water park side alone at SeaWorld is HUGE! Like 10 different areas for kids, teens, play area's, different levels of slides.

This boy just cracks me up, I love him so much! He is just getting to be so much fun!

 

 

 

 

He has a big brother who loves him, too! I just love that smile!

 

 

After our fun day at SeaWorld, and I still can't believe that I took so few pictures, but after our fun day, we met up with Jason at a BBQ place called Rudy's. It's like in a gas station that's been added on to. So, the ordering part is seperate, and you have to stand outside and wait in a line, then you go to the to the next door and it's a gas station that's been added onto and is huge with lots of picnic tables. It was SOOOOO good. I'm so glad I don't live in Texas, I would eat BBQ non-stop! Actually, I would live in Texas in a hearbeat, I really loved it down there!

 

I'm all about this kind of food! And Tucker got in some good Uncle Jason bonding time.

Celebrating Burton

The night we got home from the beach, this little man got his first haircut! Oh my gosh, he is the cutest, and his hair was so cute long, but it was in his face most of the time. Good thing his mama is a hair lady!

 

Poor little guy, had no idea what was happening. He was NOT happy about it once she started.

We had to take him out and love on him a bit mid cut...

 

But we finally got him calm enough to get through the cut. Oh my gosh, he's the cutest. All of us were just in love all week and couldn't get enough of him! :)

 

And the final product: Too cute for words!!

 

The next morning we went to church with the Croskrey's and these cute cousins were super excited to be matchy matchy!

 

I was just happy to be with this lady. It was so much fun to just be there with her and see what her life is all about now. She is in the Primary presidency and my mom and I had to tag team teach a class last minute. Kenzie's class, so that was pretty fun!

 

 

After church it was time to celebrate this little man. It was his big 1st birthday!!!!

 

He wasn't sure what to think of everything. He didn't really like being the only one in his chair, and having to wear the hat. He wasn't sure of what to think of the candle and the flame, or the cake even. His mama had to make him a special egg free cake, but it turned out so good!!!

 

 

I just love this pic of Burton:

 

And this one: haha

 

Then he got a little taste of the goodness and I guess he decided that all the torture of the chair and the hat were worth it! haha He, of course, loved it!!!

 

 

 

After making a decent mess, little man got a bath and some presents and a little naked time and he was a happy camper!

 

 

Oh my gosh, I just love him!

 

It was a long day of partying, so Tuck and Jason took a little nappy nap. Jason got us, especially Tucker hooked on a show called Granite Flats on the BYU channel. It was really good and they bonded over it. It was fun to see them become good little buddies.

 

Even this guy was worn out, luckily he had his favorite grammy to snuggle with!!!

 

If the rest of our San Antonio trip is anything like the first few days of our trip so far, we are in for a treat!! Can't wait for the rest of our time here!!
