Oh the joys of being young! This was after our visit to Six Flags on Monday. The kids had been in the car talking about their next quest - the community swimming pool. They decided to just sit down for a few minutes to rest before making the 1 mile trek. Let's just say that they never made it!
Tuesday was a trip to Sea World. We got up early as we were going to spend most of our day in Lost Lagoon - the water park portion of Sea World. My sister-in-law has been working for Anheuser-Busch Adventure Parks for 28 years and currently holds a VP position. Let's just say we get a bit spoiled when we visit Sea World.
Here is Cam, floating down the Lazy River. He spent most of his time in either the Lazy River or the wave pool.
The bald guy in the back of this photo is my brother-in-law, the guy with the farmer's tan? Yeah ... that would be the other grown-up who threw a little tantrum in the airport.
The rest of the kids (from left to right), Tyler (step-son), Paige (niece), Dakota (second cousin), Sara (Step-son's girlfriend), Delaney (step-daughter) and Kirk (nephew).
This is my sister-in-law (hub's sister) that has the Anheuser-Busch Adventure Parks connection. She really is the reason I am able to stay relatively sane on this trip. She and I have become the Margarita Queens. Wait ... does that mean it's really the tequila that is keeping me relatively sane??
Of course, the kids are most concerned about getting a tan. Those of us
Oh, I did get a bit artsy at Sea World. They really have some beautiful landscaping that is definitely photo worthy. Here are two of my favorite shots.
Having spent some time in San Antonio in the past, there are a few things that are "must do" - one of those is Rudy's Bar-B-Q - self proclaimed "Worst Bar-B-Q in Texas." I have to say that if there was one thing that would get me to move to Texas, it would be the Rudy's brisket (fatty side, of course)

We purchase it by the pound and always order a side of coleslaw (creamy). They serve it with a loaf of white bread, the kind that is so gooey it sticks to the back of your teeth when you bite into it! There is nothing better than throwing a few slabs of the brisket onto the white bread, adding a spoon full of slaw, dousing it with Rudy's Sause (yes, that's how they spell it) and then stuffing the succulent, artery clogging concoction into your mouth! This was dinner last night - YUMMMMMMM!!
