For more pictures, go to my brother (Scot's) blog! He posted in real time while we were there. But here is a recap!
Our trip to Texas was a blast! We had so much fun hanging out with Scot, Becca and Riley! We had just the right amount of activity with relaxation-it was a really great vacation. Riley was so funny! Camden just loved playing with her and making her laugh. Since Riley is so small, Camden loved picking her up and carrying her around. It was pretty funny to watch! She seemed to enjoy him a well.
We got in really late on Wednesday evening. The flight wasn't too bad, although the kids were pretty wasted tired.
On Thursday, we went to San Antonio. We ate a picnic lunch on the temple grounds, and then headed to downtown. We saw the Alamo and then did the river walk boat ride. Camden thought that the Alamo was awesome because it was a fort and there were lots of guns, swords and coins ;) He also liked the movie about the battle. The ride on the river was also fun for everyone. Thank you to my brother for being our personal trip photographer He takes really good pictures!
Friday we headed to the state capitol building, which we learned is slightly taller then the US Capitol building, on purpose :) We then headed to Flip Happy, a restaurant that we learned about on the Food Network when my bro was staying wtih us for the summer. We had AMAZING crepes-savory and sweet :) We were going to head to Zilker park, but it was chilly, so we checked out the Whole Foods headquarters, which was very cool. There were tons of samples and it was just a fun store!
Saturday was game day for the boys! Paul and Scot went to ESPN game day in the morning and then went to the Texas-Missouri game in the evening. Becca and I took the kids to the children's museum in the morning, which was fun. For lunch, we headed to Lockhart for some REAL Texas BBQ. We are talking about a restaurant with fire in the floor, and smoke everywhere. It was very good. It was quite the big Texas experience for Paul!
Sunday we went to church and then headed to the Texas botanical gardens. They were beautiful! It was a lovely afternoon.

It's about time you updated! I'll pretty much be the only one who won't be able to see Scot and Becca one last time in Texas!! :(
Hey that's my hometown! You pretty much hit all my favorite places except I've never heard of the pancake place. I'll have to check it out! It has been fun catching up on you and your family. You have adorable boys. My oldest is 5 and he say Camden in one the pictures and just asked me when he could play with that friend. So apparently he sees a soulmate. :-)
