The Texas Coast and San Antonio

For Cliff's brief summer vacation (he starts school again tomorrow!), we decided to take a trip down to the Texas coast, particularly Corpus Christi. On the way back, we stopped in San Antonio to play a bit in the city and to see high school BFF, Shannon (and roomies who keep regular tabs on Stone).
We've made it a goal to really explore Texas this next year and figure out if there are any places in particular we'd like to focus on job hunting (although that's a bit down the road...). Well, Corpus (and San Antonio) are definetly on the list! We had so much fun at the beach. Corpus is a very charming city. We went all over the place and had quite the time.

Vacation is definetly a different story with a 10 month old. It's such a production to pack up everything each time we head out, but it's so fun to see how excited Stone already gets with things. Soooo...here are a few (okay, a handful) of pictures. Enjoy.

Gosh, he's handsome.

At the Texas State Acquarium. We didn't know if Stone would enjoy it, but Cliff was adamant about going. Turns out he was FASCINATED.





At the beach in Port Aransas.

This is what happens when you focus on lotioning up your baby. I didn't expect to burn with the amount of time we were out that day.

When we lived in San Antonio we absolutely loved it! Seeing your pictures makes us really miss home!

That looked so fun. I am shocked Stone wasn't more scared or sad when in the ocean. Looks like you really might have a surfer:-) I love beach pictures. Taking kids out is a whole other story, but it is always fun to see their reaction to things. Sorry Cliff has to start school so soon again. That totally stinks, but the faster it'll be done:-)

Loving all the pics. What good times! Ya know, if you end up on the Texas coast, we're gonna have a lil cowboy/surfer dude on our hands! Stone just soaked up all the new experiences...gotta love that! Pass on my congrats to Sha-nay-nay, the cutie!

Hey Kendal, I've joined the world of blogging and found you from Ben's blog. Do you remember me? I'm Patti's daughter from fifth ward. Anyway, I can't believe you've been married for four years already! And your baby's gorgeous! Stone is a really cool name. My thirteen-year-old says it's very manly. You look as beautiful as ever, too. Sounds like you have a fun life! Keep up the good work!

You are so lucky. I'm with the Alford family - I absolutely loved living in San Antonio and your pictures made me miss it!! Waaaah!! Oh well - maybe we'll live there when we're done with school. Go Spurs!! :)
