San Antonio

We were supposed to go on this San Antonio trip as a family last September, but Kevin's assistant manager quit in August, which meant that Kevin wasn't going anywhere!  The timing didn't work out for the Peacocks to join us, but we enjoyed a great weekend with G + G Meador. 

This was Brooke's first pool outing this year, and we thought she would go crazy because she loves the water during bath time.  Maybe due to the fact that the water was freezing, but she was not super excited about the pool, haha.  She just kind of sat in the water, but didn't try to splash much or kick her legs.  The resort had a cool lazy river though, so we spend lots of time floating in that.  Kevin and I even tried out the waterslides once while G + G watched Brooke.

She was, however, really into the S'mores.  Around 7 o'clock each night, they had fire pits ready for roasting marshmallows.  We took advantage of that every night.  If you didn't feed Brooke fast enough, she would just go for a bite herself, haha.  This girl was covered in marshmallow goodness :)

She did great in the hotel, and it was so nice that due to Jerry's travel status, we were upgraded to the suite, which meant that our room was connected to a huge living area, a private patio, another huge bathroom, and a dining area.  Each night, after we put Brooke to bed, we were all still able to visit and spend time together without the fear of waking her up.  Several nights, after spending hours at the pool, we would come back, get Brooke bathed and down for the night, then order room service for dinner.

I love this picture of Brooke!  She looks like a little diva :)  Just ignore my double chin!

How great is this view from our private patio?  You can see the golf course in the distance.  Kevin and Jerry golfed one day while us girls enjoyed sleeping in and eating out.  Then, Bev and I enjoyed facials at the spa while Brooke hung out with the boys.  We definitely felt spoiled while we were there.

It was so great to have time to spend together as a family, and Brooke was seriously such a sweetheart and able to go with the flow despite being in a new environment.
