I Had Them Eating Out of My Hand

In San Antonio, we went to the Natural Bridge Wildlife Park. I went here last year and was really looking forward to going back (except I did NOT want to feed an ostrich!!!)

Mason woke up happy and we knew it was going to be a good day!


Of course, Mommy had to take a picture!


Before we headed out to see the animals, I had to give Mason some kisses.


I like him!


But now lets get back to the animals. So, you could feed them right out of your window!! Mommy even traded seats with me so I could have the best view.



Look, here's the infamous ostrich! They're so mean that I made Daddy roll up the windows when we saw one. This one is pecking on the window!


Mommy tried to talk big and tell me they weren't scary. She even attempted to feed one to prove it. Then she realized, I was right, they ARE scary!


Donkeys...much less scary!


Llamas were also sweet


This one was really sweet!


Mason just chilled for the ride. He is such a mellow baby.


After we had a potty break (which involved a wardrobe change), we got ICEE's! Yummy!


Max says "I'm having THIS much fun!"


Hellooooo zebra!


He just came in and helped himself.


I had so much fun feeding the animals. Maybe next year we can come back and I can show Mason how to do it!

I Heart Zoos

If you tune in to my blog much, you will know that I love going to the zoo. So the San Antonio zoo was a must on our trip and it did not disappoint!


We are such a big family now that we cannot even all fit in one stroller! I love these brothers!


Max and the fish


There were lots of places to play in this zoo.


And boy did we run!


You could also feed the lories. Mom and Dad thought I might be scared of them, but I wasn't scared at all!


Max usually scared them away ha ha!


Lots of animals to see!


What a fun day at the zoo!


We even got to go on a real train ride. Now that was fun!


After a morning out in the heat, we cooled off at the hotel pool.



Just wait until you see what we did next!

San Antonio Stroll

Since we were in New Braunfels for Miss Molly's wedding, we decided to spend some time in nearby San Antonio. It was fun and HOT! Good thing we're from south Texas and we love the heat!

We ate dinner at one of Mommy's favorite San Antonio spots, Mi Tierra's. I got to see all of my New Jersey familia who stayed over after the wedding.


I played on the riverwalk with some of my cousins before they headed home.


We even took a riverboat tour. Mommy said she has been to San Antonio lots of times, but even she had never been on one of these boats!


Max was having a good time!


And Mason did a lot of this....he was a trooper though!


Sooo much went on that I have to break it up over a few posts...stay tuned!

Molly's Wedding

I'm a bit behind in blogging folks. We have been fitting in last minute travels before our big move to East Texas! I will try to catch you up with a few posts.

This is Molly. Isn't she beautiful? She married Brent (because she wouldn't wait for me and we're related, but I digress...). We went to her wonderful wedding in New Braunfels.


I made lots of friends....and a girl friend! ;)




There were yummy snacks (don't worry, my girlfriend was digging my chocolate face)



I would like Kerbie to marry me, but we're related too. Why are all the good ones my cousins?


Max was his usual cute mess-making self!


We danced the afternoon away and had a great time. Thanks for inviting us Molly!

Dinosaurs Have Taken Over The Zoo!

I love me some mid-week zoo trips while Mommy is on maternity leave! We went this week and let me tell you...there are some interesting new inhabitants at the Houston Zoo. More about that in a minute.

Look at Mason all ready for the zoo!


Maxer and I ride around the zoo in style.


Was I right or what? Look at this thing! It moves and makes sounds and everything!


We got to hold a real-sized t-rex tooth!-


Umm...forgive me if I was too distracted by the GIGANTIC T-Rex to smile for this picture!


Time for a snack break.


Mason has had enough of the zoo.


Look how big I'm getting!


Max had to copy me.


I even found a friendly dinosaur that I could ride on!

Fun day at the zoo!

Freedom Baby!!!

I'm so lucky to be growing up in the land of the free. We celebrated the 4th of July Port O;Connor style...


Family pic!


Granny and Pop's "beach cart"


Mommy and Mason piled on too.


Playing on Pop's boat


Time to do a little fishing.


Mommy and Daddy got to do some fishing too!



Look at Mommy's BIG red fish!


We are buddies.


All of the grandkids piled on the golf cart!

Happy Independence Day everyone!
