Road Trip!

We had our first weekend getaway with just the four of us. Ryan’s brother graduated from basic training with the air force this past weekend so on Thursday evening we loaded up and headed to San Antonio. We left around 6:30 with the thought in mind that the boys would sleep. As it turned out they didn’t do much sleeping and mostly watched My Baby Can Read and Baby Einstein. We got the hotel about 11:30 that night and checked in and got settled by 12:30. The boys thought they were in a giant playroom. Jason was jumping around o his bed and they were both wired. Reece ended up falling asleep but J was fighting it and by 3am I threw him in bed with me so we could all get some sleep.

We got up early on Friday morning to catch the graduation. I guess I never realized what it was like to live on base or what a base even was. I must say that I was pretty proud of Trevor. He has grown up so much in 8 weeks. The boys were pretty good during the graduation parade. At the end they were a little tired of sitting still so we played in the grass together and then headed back to the hotel so that everyone could nap. All three boys (Ryan included in the 3) took a pretty solid nap and then we went to dinner on the river walk to eat with Ryan’s mom, sister and Trevor’s friends who came to town. That evening we strolled up and down the river walk and then stopped by Ryan’s grandparents hotel to feed, change and visit for a bit before heading back to the hotel for the night.
On Saturday we slept in for a little bit and then loaded everything up in the car and cleaned up the room and meet Ryan’s Dad and family for brunch. After brunch we took a little walk down to the Alamo. Jason was asleep in the stroller for most of it..or should I saw until I woke him up to take pictures. At noon we headed back down to the river walk where we walked for nearly 2 hours. The boys LOVED the scenery and being pushed around in their stroller. Around 2 we stopped to rest with Ryan’s Mom and sister while we waited on Trevor to arrive. By 4 we were back on the road and got home last night around 9.
We took a bunch of pictures, but near as many as I would have liked. The boys were in their stroller a lot and Ryan hates taking pictures so I kept telling him this is the vacation of horrible pictures because for the most part they weren’t good but that’s ok.

There are a lot more pictures. They will all be posted in the 9-10 month album when I finish uplaoding all the pictures.
