We took our first family vacation with Treyson this past week. It was a fun and fast time. Treyson was a great flyer, and Anniston is a pro at flying now and really thought that flying through clouds was so funny! We flew out of Fort Smith Sunday morning, and landed in San Antonio around 2. We rented a car, checked into the hotel, changed into shorts, and off we went to Seaworld. Anniston LOVED, LOVED, LOVED Seaworld....particularly Shamu. There are several pictures coming, so enjoy!
Anniston's face was priceless throughout the show. It started the first time Shamu jumped out of the water, and never really went away. Here's a few pics we got after the first Shamu show (can you tell we missed our nap??). 
And some pictures from the second show....again, she just can't believe what she's seeing!! Too cute! She also clapped along with the crowd (notice Treyson snoozing in Dadoo's arms throughout the excitement!). 
We wateched a Sea Lion show, then went to watch them swim up close. Dadoo gave us money to buy fish to feed the Sea Lions. Anniston wasn't sure at first, and Mommy had to feed one. She thought that was hilarious, and she fed the rest all by herself and wanted to buy more! 
We were hungry, so we decided to eat some dinner. Anniston hadn't had a nap all day (as you can tell from her face in some of the pictures), and said she wanted chocolate for dinner. Since it was vacation and we didn't feel like arguing with a nap-less two year old, we let her eat a Shamu bar for dinner....and boy was she excited! After she saw Mommy's pizza, she decided she needed to eat HALF of that too!!

Here's Anniston and Dadoo on the water ride....
JUST KIDDING!!! She was too short to ride ANY rides (very disappointing). But she was loving watching all of the boats go down the shoot and had Jerry hold her close enough to get splashed. 
Good times at the hotel

...some day when she's old enough to realize how embarassing this is, I'll have to remove it....but until then!
On Monday we went to downtown San Antonio to see the Riverwalk and tour the Alamo. We rode the boat on the Riverwalk, then had dinner on the river at the first Mexican Restaurant established there. It was quite tasty (and so were the margaritas and wine!)
On Tuesday we drove to Austin, with a stop at the San Marcos outlet mall--fabulous! The kids and Mommy did their own thing on Wednesday while Dadoo had to work. On Thursday morning, we drove back to San Antonio to catch our flight home. Definitely a fast vacation, but so much fun!
