Dear Jonah and Gracie,
After lunch with Daddy's family in Lancaster, we drove to Austin/San Antonio and spent 3 days yuckin' it up before the loooooong drive home.
Tuesday evening, The Rowdy Girls welcomed us with open arms and you guys picked right up where you left off last March. Squealing, running, making each other laugh hysterically, and playing hard.
San Antonio was calling to us since Daddy and I love the River Walk and hadn't been there since our honeymoon (seven years ago). We also really wanted to take you to Sea World and the Rowdy Girls were going anyway, sooooo. We checked into the Hilton near Sea World and spent Thursday exploring the River Walk, the Alamo, and playing in the hotel's pool...
(Tea Party rally in front of the Alamo. Ha!)
Gracie, you took one look at the dolphins, turned around, and tried to claw your way up my shirt and over my head. They seriously bothered you. I think it was because they disappeared under water and you weren't sure where they were going to surface. It didn't matter to you at all that Jonah loved feeding them and was obviously having a blast.
Em and Roo showed us all their favorite exhibits. We didn't have to even glance at a map or figure out show times! All we did was follow them, and enjoy.
At the end of the day, Jonah got a stuffed dolphin for a souvenir, and named it Seely Seal. Because, that's what dolphins say, you know. *insert super high pitched squeal* "Seely Seeeeeeal".
(Tea Party rally in front of the Alamo. Ha!)What did Daddy get you from the Alamo gift shop, Jonah? A pop gun. 5 minutes later, I heard myself saying, "Do NOT. POP. YOUR SISTER."
On Friday we finally made it to SEA WORLD! Wooooo hoooooo! Everyone was so happy to see the Rowdy Girls family again, and Sea World was just what the doctor ordered. That was a good day.
