I love vacations!!!

Our trip to Texas was WONDERFUL!!! It was the greatest vacation, maybe not ever, but the greatest one we've had in a long time! Like I told my dad, I can switch to the "no-kid" mode really fast! :) It helped to know that they were in excellent hands! Chris's parents watched them for us. So nice! They had fun with Grandma and Grandpa and cousins. Hopefully they didn't wear out Grandma and Grandpa too much!

We flew from Pasco into San Antonio. That is a neat city! We went to the Alamo and walked around downtown for a while. Then we drove to Corpus Christi. The condos that we stayed at were right on the ocean. BEAUTIFUL!!! Like I mentioned in a previous post, my _____ camera was broken so I don't have any pictures!!! But it was incredible! There were two decks off our room that overlooked the ocean. I never thought of myself as a "water person" but man, I loved seeing the ocean!!! mmmmm...

We didn't do anything real fascinating, just relaxed. Chris had a few hours of meetings. Other than that, we went for drives, ate at some great restaurants, walked on the beach (my favorite!!! The sand seriously felt like cornstarch!!! It was so soft!!!), sat in the hot tub... just enjoyed doing whatever we wanted to do! Ahhhhhh. Hopefully I'll be able to go next year...

Yay!!!!! I'm SO glad that you guys had so much fun! Every relationship NEEDS that every so often! Tim and I don't do it enough! Jen, thanks so much for your sweet comment! It helped me feel better! I need to be better at reading my scriptures and other things! I just need to learn to try and do one thing at a time, instead of looking at this huge mountain going "ahhh, there's no way, I give up!" I love you tons, and I hope to see you guys soon sometime!! LOL! Take care!

Oh that sounds SO fun! I love "no kid mode" - and warm places with a beach! That's too bad your camera is shot - good luck replacing it. And thanks for the yummy-looking recipes!
