This past week was a blast. We finished unpacking our stuff (still have to unpack my scrapbooking stuff but that's a project once Travis is on his clinicals!), Travis & I took a mid-week getaway to San Antonio! On Wednesday we drove up and did some shopping before checking in at Drury Plaza on the Riverwalk in our suite! We enjoyed our "adult beverages", went to the market close to the riverwalk, Rivercenter mall and enjoyed a good meal at Casa Rio! Yum! It was nice to get away and just be US! Not worried about school, or work, just US! :)
Thursday we went to Schlitterbahn! It was a blast as always, our feet hurt us more this time than before (I attribute it to us aging!) and once we had enough of the maddness with crowds we ventured to San Marcos to the outlet mall to shop around, we toured Travis' Alma Mater (Texas State University) and MAN has it expanded!! Saw his old dorms, his old apartment and ate at Gills Fried Chicken! Many many days I drove up to see him and we'd eat there :) good memories for sure! We stopped at the new (and largest) Buccees EVER! Huge! Crazy huge! We ventured back to Port Lavaca, and packed again!
Friday we headed to Victoria to meet up with my in-laws at their house and we went with them to Lake Conroe! We met up with Travis' Aunt Kay (she's the one who has the time-share) and visited with her and got all checked in! We had a water front "apartment" for the weekend! Our cousin Steven & his 2 daughters Kailey & Katelyn were there, their Mom Holli had to work :( Next time hopefully she can join us too!
We had so much fun, we played board games, fed ducks, played putt-putt, went swimming multiple times, went school supply shopping with them (and Travis & I have decided to start NOW on buying our kids supplies (just kidding...) I can't believe how many items these kiddos have to have for KINDER!) We ate Cracker Barrel and my father in law grilled some burgers! It was just an overall GREAT time! If you go to my facebook you'll see all the images! ALL 200+ of them! haha.
On our way home Sunday we stopped and did some shopping, got some new scrub pants for me and we went to Jo Anns! I got some material and scrapbooking stuff...can't wait to get started on my friend Jennifer's baby gift items! :D
So now we're back "home" at my parents house, which is technically our house too I guess, and unpacked getting ready for the week! LOTS to do this week to prepare for Travis starting his clinicals, and next weekend will be yet another weekend of driving 8+ hours pulling the RV to get Travis to his clinical lacation...over the last, well, since January...I should have logged my time in the car!!! Between trips from PL to Amarillo, and driving all over Texas for various things, good grief!
Anyways, till next time ;)
