San Antonio Part III

 We had such a busy day that all three are tuckered out.  Mary Larkin even threw up and I am crossing my fingers that I pushed her too hard and a rotovirus is not about to hit the grandparent's house!  Wouldn't that be fabulous?!  Talk about never getting invited back.  In any event, we had another fun, fun day!  We hit the Botanical Gardens, farmer's market for Texas peaches, playdate with our friend Katie (who we met last year at Fiesta) and then a brief visit with Aunt Eleanor and Uncle JC (or Uncle JCC as the girls say) back at the house.  Here's all the evidence:

San Antonio Part II

Daddy Bob and Sally took us to their club to swim and have a poolside supper.  What great fun!  We didn't get home until 9PM tonight and the girls all crashed.  Here Eleanor is holding Daddy Bob's hand anxiously making her way to the pool.  
Baby's first swim!  She liked it so much she fell asleep shortly afterwards.


Eleanor was determined to practice her new swim skills that she is learning at the JCC.  (Take note of Dora floating in the inner tube.  The girls were concerned she'd float.)


Eating Blue Bell ice cream with chocolate Goldbrick sauce.  Hmm... is it ever good.

San Antonio Part I

So, where do I begin other than by saying we are, as usual, having a fantabulous time in San Antonio?  We began our trip visiting Uncle Larkin and Aunt Sally Matthews in Houston, however I took no pictures.  Boo!  Sunday night we parted ways with Gar (he stayed on in Houston for biz) and the girls me and drove on to San Antonio.  We were greeted by Sally, Bob, and Uncle Larkin (Buchanan--two different Uncle Larkin's here) who is recently home from Seoul, Korea.  What a treat!  The girls can not get enough of their Uncle Larkin.  Mary Larkin, in particular, is attached to him and cries and mopes when he leaves to go back to his own apartment.

 
I find this picture hilarious because Eleanor insisted that she wanted lovey because lovey "would love this." She managed to suck her thumb and sniff lovey while being hung upside down.  Nice work!


 

Ginger looks on with Sally wondering, "Am I next??"

So long until next time!  We'll have plenty of adventures on which to report!
