3 Vacations in One

Talk about on the go! We headed to San Antonio to go to my cousins wedding. It was a non-stop weekend packed with people to visit and things to do. First, we made a pit stop to visit Austin.Photo shoot at Prototype.

Heading down South Congress, looking at the shops.

Ian took off work to meet up with us for lunch.
Next stop...Kelly and Maria. John's aunt and uncle also live in San Antonio. It was great fun spending the evening with them. Even if we did stay up way too late catching up.
Boy did my children love wrestling with Loren all night.
No Luke didn't take a shower, he was just that sweaty from running around.

Luke loved sleeping in a Hotel.

It was a great trip. Congratulations Lecca. You looked beautiful and so happy. Now go enjoy married life.

Luke is Lookin' Scholarly

Why is it so cute to see such tiny little humans in cap & gown. Luke was the first one to have his name called to receive his diploma for Kinder Graduation.They sang a few songs, some of which were in Spanish, it was hilarious to hear Luke sing "De Colores". Take note of his large forehead, by the end of the ceremony his cap was on backwards and completely "Annie Oakley" style.They played "Wind Beneath my Wings" in the back ground while the students came down to give their Moms and Dads a "Thank You Certificate" with their hand prints on them. (I totally started bawling.) How is Luke so old?

Mrs. Candelaria (Imagine Luke using a perfect accent while saying her name.) He received a "Reading Excellence" award. He has become quite the little reader this past year.

Dang Luke, you are one studly little six year old.
We Love You

Then again... Maybe Not

Here is a picture of the three cutest boys in the world headed off to their annual Father's and Son's trip. Loaded up with all their camping gear and junk food, they were so excited to go camping.And here is a picture of that same loaded down van, only it didn't quite make it to the mountains. With smoke a blazin' and a slipping transmission an hour into the trip, John soon realized his boys were not going to go camping with him.Luke took the opportunity to play John's PSP while we waited for the tow truck to meet us out in the middle of no where.Ashley was just excited to get to see her "Guys" again. (She was a little distraught when they left her)So much for a "Girls Only" party. But honestly, it was really fun to have a Saturday together as a family without any plans or obligations. We really enjoyed our weekend together.

PS The weird end of the story, We took the van in and they couldn't find anything wrong with it. Cross your fingers we don't break down again.
