9 years...

Well it has been nine years since Jeff and I tied the knot. So here is a list of the top 9 things that I love about my husband.

9. He let me get a dog...Dixie and then a second...Snickers

8. I painted our bathroom in Katy Friends purple and buy mulberry (purple) furniture

7. I cook, he does dishes

6. He made show my emotions

5. He can make the most random and inconsiderate remarks and not even realize it

4. He has grown to love my family and care for them

3. It doesn't matter how mad I get he can always make me laugh

2. He loves me, the dogs, and the purple furniture unconditionally

1. He gave me Lauren

What do you do on a Sunday afternoon in Texas when it over 100 degrees outside? Well that's simple you head to McDonald's for ice cream and the indoor Play Palace. Lauren and Elliott had such blast playing on the toys and chasing each other!

Girl's Trip

Well we had a girls trip with Grand, Lauren, and me. We started it off by going to the Children'sMuseum in San Antonio. Lauren loved the toddler area with the lifesize light brite. So much fun moving those pegs!

She also loved the ball tubes and milking the cow too!

By far the best time had at the museum was shopping at the tot size HEB and sorting returns. Let's just say that is was inevitable with two parents that met and fell in love at HEB.

We then headed to the Buckhorn saloon to take in the sights of the elephant, giraffee, moose, and buffalos before heading to the River Walk. We had dinner at the Rainforest Cafe. I don't know if was a wise call to take a two year old who is afraid of thunder and lighting to a place that has a thunderstorm every thirty minutes, but the dancing gorillas kept her mind off of the thunder. The alligator did scare her, but she got Orangatan to keep her safe!

Next to the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory for some fudge souvenirs for Daddy!

The next day our adventure took us back to Sea World. I think she had more fun the second time around because she new what to expect. She loved seeing Shamu, dolphins, sealions, and the walrus.

A few things to note:

1. The jelly fish look like bubbles

2. We rode the conveyor belt a second time not to look at the peguins but to ride it

3. Alligator biscuits look like dried dog poop

We finally made it home after a super duper long drive back to B/CS that included...new Crocs for Lauren and Grand, longest wait at Freebird's ever, projectile watermelon which caused the impromptu stop at Bastrop State Park, and Grand running over roadkill. Let's just say fun was had by all! Just wish we would have had two days to recouperate instead of one!
