Well, we had a very nice vacation in San Antonio, but it was also very busy. Next time we need to plan some rest time after the vacation. On Sunday we went to church and Kara sang very loudly, after the song was over. At least she is participating. Then we had a fajita dinner and got to visit with Bean and Bob, Gigi and Corky so that was very nice. Monday we went swimming at Blossom which was interesting. I remember the pool being a lot bigger and a lot deeper than it actually was. Aaron and Kara enjoyed showing Nana, Papa and Daddy all they had learned in their swimming classes. Then we had a birthday celebration for Aaron at Alamo Cafe. He really liked that and they even sang happy birthday and gave him some ice cream. It was nice and I got a bit teary. Tuesday was interesting because we went to Sea World. Aaron and Andy really liked it, but I was quite disappointed. They had the same shows and didn't have the same times they had posted on their web site, so we were there during Kara's nap time and she didn't enjoy that. Oh well. Wednesday we went to eat in La Vernia and visited with Carolyn, Dave, Emily and Great Grandma. That was neat. I loved the food and the company. Emily learned more than she ever wanted to know about Transformers from Aaron.
Then Wednesday night we got to visit with Edwin, Rebeca, Ricky, Ruth, Elvera and Rod. The kids, Andy and I played in the pool with Edwin and Rebeca and then we got to eat a wonderful dinner. Spaghetti, yummy!
Thursday Andy and I got to see a movie by ourselves, a real treat for us. We saw Get Smart and it was really funny! Friday we had a Fourth of July celebration with Nana, Papa, BeanGeen and Bob, Michael, Laura and Ava. That was really fun too, because the kids got to swim in the wading pool. They were so funny. Kara kept jumping, Ava kept trying to get out and Aaron did a lot of splashing. It was a very nice time. Saturday we flew back to Alabama and because of a three and a half hour delay got home quite late. Oh well. We really enjoyed the vacation, but we were all really tired when we got back. I'm glad we got to see most everyone and hopefully we will see them all soon.

I actually had more pictures of the kids with Gigi, Corky and Alamo cafe but left them on the computer in San Antonio. So hopefully I can get those posted later this week.
Sorry these pictures are so far behind. Kara had a double ear infection and we didn't get medicine for it until Wednesday. I just thought she was tired from the trip so Wednesday we finally went to the doctor. Poor girl. She doesn't like taking the antibiotics so it's been a challenge. Every day we try something different, but she never ends up getting all the medicine in. She is very good at spitting and I have had to clean my glasses after every single dose so far! Yikes. So no pictures from this past week. Hopefully next week i can get some pictures of Aaron at swimming lessons. We shall see if the weather cooperates with that.
