Ok, So, I'm taking it back a month or so here with writing about our trip. Yes, I know, I am behind on keeping things up to date. Anyways, We took a weeks Vacation to Texas to see some close friends and family. It was also our little man's first time leaving the state. It was his first time in Texas. We were so super excited to take him there because that's where "Dada" was born and where he lived most if his life so Texas is a very important place for Bobby. He wants it to be an important place for our son as well and share and teach him wonderful things about his Daddy's home state.

Well, For starters I'm just going to come out and say it, The trip was a bummer... Not totally, but still a big bummer. We got about an hour away from our destination and the car messed up. ugh... It was awful. We had to wait at like 4 in the morning on the side of the road in this tiny town called Hye at this store that was literally the whole town. That store was the post office,grocery store and all. And all I kept thinking was "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre". It really freaked me out. but we finally got a ride to where we were going.
Like I said, It wasn't a total bummer or a wasted trip. We did get to see and hang with some wonderful close friends/family. It was the first time Pumpkin was introduced to everyone in good ole Center Point and Kerrville. :) That was one of the main reasons we were going anyways. With Uncle Joe being sick we all really wanted them to meet. Everyone loved meeting 4(since he is the IV thats what everyone called him lol) and he loved meeting them.
We had alot of things on our list of things to do and see while we were there. When we lived there we just loved going to San Antonio. But since we didn't have a car until we got our rental we didn't have enough time to go to every place we wanted to go. We did get to go to the San Antonio Zoo, which was top on our list of things to do.I was really wanting Pumpkin to get to go. It was his first time at the zoo. It ended up being really hot and he really wasn't all that interested in the animals or anything, but he still had a good time and it was still totally worth it.

The trip was fun even though our plans seemed to change constantly and I do get let down so easy. I put my all into things and then get let down when things don't necessarily go as planned. But that's life you can't plan everything that happens. I've learned you just got to make the best out of what you do get to do. And sometimes that ends up being even better. Not to mention all my favorite places to eat; Jack In The Box, Whataburger,Taco Casa(which there i didn't get to eat), And Starbucks is so very close to everything! Vanilla Bean Frappuccino (No Coffee) Yummy! :) I really bad wanted to stop in Dallas at Medieval Times! But that's another trip at another time. (sore subject). Any hoo, It was a 12 hour trip with an almost 9 month old baby so it was pretty eventful. But My baby did wonderful and was such a good boy the whole time, but I would still rather him be a little bit older next time we take a 12 hour trip like that. With his allergies he came back sick with a runny nose, poor baby. but in the end it was worth it and alot of fun and our rental car was so nice and comfy on the way home, just ate up the gas.
Well, That was our trip pretty much. Oh and we also got to spend Easter with everyone there and pumpkin got an Easter Basket and I got to go to Hastings and check out some True Blood stuff and buy some of the Tru Blood drink!!! :) Yes, I would love to go back and get to go to a few places we missed, Like Seaworld, The Riverwalk and The Alamo, but we plan on going back later when Pumpkin gets a little bit older and can enjoy more things while we are there. Well, Our internet is being slow so all the pics may take a while to get here. But I will get some more on, I promise. :)
