San Antonio

We are back online!!  It has been quite a month to say the least.  As you probably guessed from our last post Nathan was offered a great job in San Antonio, TX and so we took the big leap and moved ourselves out here.  Saying good-bye to our friends and family in California was heart-wrenching to say the least, but once we got out here it has been nothing but fun!!  We spent the first couple of days finding a place to live.  The staff at our hotel got to know us quite well we were there for so long! But we were able to find an amazing house in a wonderful neighborhood and move in the day before Thanksgiving!  Once the house was picked and we were just waiting for the move-in date....the fun began!!
Well, first things first...You can't come to San Antonio without going to the Alamo, right??  We made that our first stop!




Lucky for us, the other big attraction was just across the street!  After the Alamo we went over to the River Walk and walked around for a while.  Wow, that was beautiful!  It really is built right on the banks of the river.  I think that will be a place we frequent.





The next day we decided to go to the Zoo.  It was a really fun zoo!  Savannah loved it (can you tell?)!

No, but really she woke up and liked it a lot!


And hey...there is a Sea World here!  So we checked that out too...

It was really hot that day, but they have everything covered so the shows were the place to be!


The ride was way fun...except when it got stuck when Whitney was right at the top!!



So basically, we love it here so far!

CONGRATS to NATHAN!!! That is awesome that he found such a great job opportunity in Texas! Whoo hoo!! Did he already take the Texas bar?? I lived in San Antonio for 3 years and absolutely LOVED it!!!
