San Antonio?!?!?! Day 1 and Day 2

So here we are in San Antonio on family vacation. The ride down here was about 9 hrs, should have taken less. Lots of bathroom breaks and horrible traffic in Austin, but we finally made it!! We are staying with Zac's aunt, saving us tons of money, its greatly appreciated, trust me. Today we took the boys to Sea World. They had a blast!! We started with the sea lion show and I haven't seen them laugh so hard in forever!! We then headed over to the Shamu show, which Jakob kept calling "Shampoo". It was kind of cheesy, but still pretty cool. Oliver had a slight meltdown because we couldnt ride the rides, the lines were terribly long! I dont think that they understood that you had to wait so long to ride it. So in that moment we decided that it would be better to make it a two day visit. The best part of the day was the dolphin cove. Jakob and Oliver leaned up along the wall and hung over the side (as everyone did) and fed and petted a dolphin. I even did it too, it was the coolest thing ever! The boys had so much fun, they said it was their favorite! Afterwards we headed to McDonlads and ordered...wait for it..a 50 piece nugget...seriously, a 50 piece!!!! I have never in all my days seen that, and I have been to a few McDonalds (ok, no comments needed. lol). We then headed home, where we all took a really long nap (soooo needed!!). Then Deb and Bob took us out to dinner at a "hole in the wall (their words)" Mexican restaurant and it was really good...funny story there, but I will elaborate later :) So thats all right now. We are headed back to Sea World Thursday, and tomorrow we are going to take the boys swimming in the lovely swimming pool out in the backyard. Day 3 begins soon....to be continued....

Olivia and I just read this together and she said to tell you, "I love you and I really really miss you." And she also wanted to say "I miss you Jakob and I miss you Oliver. Love, Livvy."
