Road Trip: Last Stop San Antonio

The last stop of our road trip was San Antonio.  I moved to San Antonio after I graduated from Baylor and we stayed there for the first couple of years that we were married.  We love it!  It was fun to see some old places... but we were there to see our friends!  We stayed with our sweet friends the Youngquists.  Their son used to be in my junior high youth group and somehow he has grown into a man who just finished his freshman year at Baylor!  I am sick that I didn't get a single picture with them!  I guess we were too busy catching up and laughing to think of it.  While they were working and doing their thing, we took advantage of their beautiful pool.

 We also made a visit to the zoo.  It was so hot but we made the most of it!  C loved watching people as much as looking at the animals that he could spot.  Our favorite exhibit was this one with the hippos swimming.  So cool!

Colby loved rolling in his stroller... of course with his feet up.  He got lots of comments about this position but it didn't stop him.  One woman also referred to him as a girl!  That was a first and I'm guessing might be the last.  He looks more and more like a little boy everyday.

And now I will share what is now my favorite picture of all time :)  Something about the way that sweet boy reached out to hold my hand while he flashes that grin at his daddy MELTS MY HEART.

Colby was exhausted but we decided to take a quick trip on the train.  It might have been pushing it because he just laid on me and watched the world go by.

Our last visit was with three ladies that I worked with at First Presbyterian in San Antonio.  Kathy is the Children's Minister there and grew to be such a wonderful friend while I worked there.  Yvonne and Margaret were both administrative assistants while I was there.  Basically they ran that place and saved me a number of times!  It was a joy to introduce them to my sweet boy and catch up on their families.  Just like one of the MANY lunches we shared during my years at First Pres.

We had such a great trip!  Colby was a great traveler and it was so good to see friends and family... and a few more first for our boy!
