We were very busy yesterday (Day 6/Saturday), so I didn't get a chance to blog about our Friday Day 5.
We were able to go to the San Antonio Children's Museum. I was planning our trips around San Antonio when I found out that Dora would be there on Friday morning...so we decided to go then. There were a million (exaggeration) kids there, so we sat down, waited for Dora, said Hi and then went to play. The Museum was much more exciting than Dora. The boys were satisfied though...they saw Dora. They didn't need to get a picture or get her map...which I was thrilled to not have to stand in line. The Museum was AWESOME. I highly recommend that anyone traveling down to San Antonio visit it. They had an enormous grocery store with WORKING cash registers! Kenner had fun checking other kids out with their groceries. Patton was the bagger:)
There was a mini Alamo, kid powered elevator, real airplane, bag checking station, log cabin that you could build, tree house, Trolley, aquarium, BALL AREA with vaccuums that shoot them everywhere, dentist office, and much anticipated front loader that you could actually move and dump gravel. Patton was in HEAVEN!!!
It was a lot of fun. We also went down to the River Walk. That was a bit harry with Patton walking as close as he could to the river...for those of you that have not been down there...there isn't a wall, just a drop off into the river! Yea, not fun for Mommy!
We came home and took a great nap and hung out with Daddy for the rest of the night. Overall a great day.
SATURDAY DAY 6 - FUN AT THE SAN ANTONIO ZOO with the rest of San Antonio. Saturdays are always probably busy...but we got to go to the Zoo with Mommy AND Daddy. So off we went. It was a very nice zoo...but we have it GREAT in Omaha. We saw Zebras, Elephants, and much more. It was only 102 degrees...so many of the animals were lying in the shade. I wanted to lay down with them. The coolest part of this zoo was the Totland. It had a ground hog hole place to play in and also THE BEACH. I knew of this so we planned ahead and brought our swim suits. It was very fun and an awesome way to burn some energy while staying cool.
We came home and took a very long nap, meanwhile Daddy was researching more camping gear (yes Kendra we are fully equipped now). After our nap we decided to travel to Austin (like going to Omaha) to visit Cabella's. We had employee pricing this weekend and nothing else to do...so we went. It was a nice trip. We stopped at Rudy's BBQ, which was an experience and very good!
We found the camp table we were looking for, so we bought it at Cabella's. It was a nice touch to our homemade breakfast this morning (Sunday morning).
A nice night out with the family. I am discovering that being away means more time together...no projects at home which leaves only one parent with the kids. It has been refreshing to spend time with both my husband AND my children!
Have a great Sunday! We are off to Sea World!

What an awesome vacation! You are so right about how nice it is to spend time with husband and kids, instead of the usual divide-and-conquer plan.
