San Antonio

 In May we went to San Antonio for Brent's Graduation.  I remember a long ago blog post that I made congratulating Brent for getting into dental school.  Hard to believe the time had finally came to watch him graduate.  We flew down for the weekend and it was so nice to be able to spend a day and night with Brent and Cate and Maggie, their dog, before the rest of the family arrived. They now are in Portland where he is doing his residency right in the city and they are loving it!  Congrats again little big brother - we are proud of you!!

For breakfast we went to their local Mexican Grocery Store where they made
 amazing (for our northern taste buds) breakfast burritos!

Here is a shot of the beautiful resort that we stayed at in the Hill Country outside San Antonio.  It is a huge hotel with a full water park, multiple restaurants, hours of planned games and activities for the kids and adults so it was a great place to meet.  It happened also to be record rainfalls in a state that was in a drought...so needless to say - we were a bit rained out that weekend but we did get to see some of the longest and most spectacular lightning and thunder storms we have ever seen!

When we all get together there are a lot of little blond people - this is not even all of them!
