norsegirlWe didn't actually do a whole lot. She threw out her back for a few days and I was exhausted all the time. Isn't being pregnant fun? There were a few notable days/evenings though.
She arrived late Saturday night, we didn't do a whole lot that night because it was late.
Sunday morning we took the doggies off to the kennel and headed to San Antonio. We got on the road late and stopped at the massive outlet mall in San Marcos and then got tangled up in this massive highway closure traffic-jam, so by the time we got to San Antonio most of the attractions were almost closing. We did get to see the Alamo on the anniversary of the battle there (no we didn't plan it that way). The grounds were beautiful, the weather was perfect and the site was cool. We then did the river walk and had ate at a fabulous Mexican restaurant on the river for dinner.
Later in the week we picked up a fire pit from Wal-Mart and had a cookout on the back patio. That was really fun and something I haven't been able to do for ages. After we put the fire out we played Rock Band and board games, so that was about the perfect evening.
Other than that we spent a few afternoons doing beads, went shopping once and took the hounds to the dog park. Not the most eventful or action-packed trip ever, but nice, relaxing, and I really enjoyed having company.
The next guests on the schedule are my parents at Easter, so back to cleaning and being bored until then.
