San Antonio 2009

The DCI show brought us to San Antonio this year! Although it was VERY hot and humid there, we had fun! We found The Alamo and took a quick walk around. There is not much left that is from the real Alamo...a lot of it is re-created! We went to Six Flags Fiesta Texas and rode some pretty awesome rides! We were ready for a nice cold shower when we got back to the hotel though! We went to the Riverwalk...ate some yummy food, walked around and took a boat cruise around the river. It was so neat down there! The trolly ride took us around San Antonio to see the sights including The Tower of America where we rode to the top to see San Antonio from a whole new perspective! Then we found ourselves at the Alamodome for the DCI show! Thank goodness it was inside!! While I cheer on the Cavaliers...Ray cheers on the Blue Devils. The Blue Devils prevailed and took first place with Cavaliers in second! We had fun, but were ready to come home to our dry heat!

4th of July Week in San Diego!

I just got back from a week with friends and family in San Diego! It was a blast although it was hard to be there without Ray. We spent the 4th of July on Tom and Bonnie's boat where we anchored out in the bay for fireworks. It was freezing for us Arizonians....but soo worth it! We saw about 5 fireworks shows on the water...amazing! The rest of the week I spent with the Hothems and the Reeves at their palce in Pacific Beach. Ariah LOVES the beach and I even went down there with her a few times! She also found another love...my Starbucks drink! Gotta start her early! We went back out on the boat where we went Jet Skiing. It was fun except thanks to Tom I got completely soaked!! All worth it. Tom invited a chef from the Hotel Del Coronado on the boat to cook for us. It was delicious. It was a nice week and I am so thankful to have such great family and friends.
