Vacation

breanna — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 21:06:10 +0000

We’re on our annual summer trip to Iowa to visit family. We went a different route this time to mix things up a little bit and see some different sights along the way. To kick things off we spent the weekend in Houston. Highlights were dinner at Maggiano’s, an Astros game and Craig Biggio’s retirement ceremony. After Houston, we took a couple days and drove through Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Missouri before finally arriving in Iowa. One of our big highlights was stopping at the BBQ Shop in Memphis to eat some amazing BBQ. We’re having a great time with our family here in Iowa. There’s been golf, shopping, lots of fun and laughter, and the most beautiful, relaxing canoe trip yesterday. Here are pics of some of the highlights so far. (These were taken with my little point and shoot. I didn’t bring the “big” camera along this time.)

Thanks to all of my clients for your patience while we’re getting some much needed R&R. I’ll be getting back to you next Monday and Tuesday!

My 4 year old took this picture! Maybe she’ll be a third generation photographer…

I love southern Louisiana. It’s so beautiful! Unfortunately, you can’t stop to take pictures on the bridge, so I had to take pictures from the car at 70 mph.

This photo was taken by my dad…

This is the way to go!

The Christmas Holidays

Even though the season was crazy, Christmas was a lot of fun! We got to see lots of family, eat lots of food, do a lot of travelling, see a lot of snow, and, of course, have a LOT of fun. Here are a few of our family highlights. (Just a note, I didn’t have my camera with me most of the time (can you beliee it?!), so these are off of various other cameras that I borrowed.

Michelle & Cecil – 9/15/07

Last weekend, Michelle and Cecil had a beautiful, intimate ceremony at The Inn at Craig Place here in San Antonio. The day was filled with laughter and tears as they committed their lives to each other and their family. Congratulations!

On a travel and/or wedding note — The Inn at Craig Place is an awesome bed & breakfast close to downtown and it’s beautiful. The owners are great too! So, if you’re looking for a wedding site, or are just looking to get away from it all… this is your place!

Oh, and check out this shot! I’m sure it’s like this behind me at most weddings, but I just happened to turn around and catch this and I thought it was hilarious!

Vacation Pics

Well we went on vacation to… are you ready? IOWA. My mom & dad live up there in the perfect little midwest town with the perfect Main Street, parades, and all that fun stuff. The pace of life seems so much slower up there, so it’s nice to get away. Not to mention that getting to see my family is awesome. Here are a few pictures from our trip.

As you can see, we got to ride on an old train, which was really cool. Beyond that, there was just relaxation, golf, and good home-cooked food. Does it get any better?!

A Country Drive

Had a little spare time today, so the kids and I went for a drive. It was relaxing. Got the chance to get a few cool pics of small town Texas, which I always enjoy.

This is the box office of an old theater I found in Seguin (see also sign above). What amazing detail! How come they don’t make buildings like that anymore?!

Travel Suggestions

So my husband and I are planning a vacation in late August or early September. We’re planning jumping in the car and going somewhere, and I was just curious if anyone out there had any suggestions for a good road trip. We live in San Antonio and we have just about a week, give or take a day or two. We really wanted to drive into Mexico on the Pacific side, but a lot of people have advised us against it. That makes me so sad because it’s beautiful there and there’s something romantic and fun about it all. I love Mexico. I got to live there for 3 months as a missions intern a few years ago and loved it. I digress. All that to say, I love travel and we’re up for just about anything. Got some fun ideas?
