San Antonio trip to see Zolo

Easter came early for me this year. Sara and Tzuni were blessed with a little baby boy in February (the day Stephen and I met four years ago.) They named him Lorenzo (Zolo for short). Soon everyone was making plans to visit San Antonio to see the new addition to the family. Stephen and I were planning on going in late March, and then found out Kim was planning on going as well. Next thing I know Mom and dad were making plans to come on that weekend! One more quick plane ticket (Lara's) and suddenly Tzuni's mother Martha has 10 more people in her home! Once everyone was in, we had a great time being together. This was the first vacation the family has taken in a long time together and it couldn't have been more fun. Below are some of the highlights of a GREAT weekend.

Kim, the girls, and Stephen and I went to Ripley's Believe it or Not Museums. It was pretty neat and there was so MUCH to look at. Stephen and I are sitting in the worlds largest tire.


Zolo was the main attraction and all the girls wanted to hold the baby! Poor Zolo. I don't think he touched his blanket all weekend. As a side note Amalia ( the oldest in the picture) is as tall as me and she is only 11! The worst part is I remember when she was Zolo's age!




This is Zolo's first train ride! We were riding a train around the beautiful park in San Antonio. It was fun, but the seats were rather small.






Kim bought Sofia this sparkly blue bag. We called it the magic bag. She would pull various items out of it and it seemed to have a hollow bottom like Mary Poppin's bag ;). She LOVED it! It was a great way to keep track of where she was, but as you can see in the picture it reflected off of EVERYTHING.


ZOLO in Mormor's arms!


These were taken at the Japanese Tea Garden. It was a BEAUTIFUL place!







The family at it's best! Making a decision!


The football hold. Mom swore that this was the way she would quit us down when nothing else seemed to work. We were rather in doubt if it would work, but it DID!


I had put together these picture packages that I was going to send to Mom/Dad, Kim, Sar, and Lar. I forgot to send them. So here I am giving them out on our last night together.



Sofia practicing yoga after dinner! ;)


Lara did not bring sleep clothes. So she borrowed these from Maya. I think she looks like a reject from a slumber party (LOL). It was a a great time and too short, but the memories!!!

Savannah Georgia

This past February 16 Stephen and I celebrated our 2 anniversary. I know two LONG years :). We decided to go somewhere warm so Savannah, GA was decided. The vacation started a bit bumpy because I was REALLY sick that weekend. I had a terrible cold and a really bad cough. Plus it was a bit rainy that weekend. However, Savannah was beautiful and we had a great time even with the interesting start. We stayed at the McMillan Inn. It was a wonderful B&B that had the most amazing breakfasts. We also got our names on the door of the room we stayed at. It was a personable touch that we liked. The B&B was a Victorian southern style that I LOVED and we had a fireplace in our room to add that romantic touch. We agreed that we would like to go back again. If you ever do decide to go watch the movie, or read the book, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil . It is one of their main attractions and scenes from the movie are everywhere.





This is in front of the art meusum that housed the"Bird Girl" statue that is on the front of the book, Midnight in the Graden of Good and Evil. What we thought was neat was there are four stautues of famous historical architects. I am standing next to Rembrandt. Stephen is standing next to Michealangelo. The other two were Leonardo and ( umm I can't remeber at this momment ;p)



This is the famous founatin the middle of Savannah that is shown in the movie.



This a famous lady who use to wave and apron or towel to passing ships. She was so popular and well known by the sea communty that at her funeral she had an international attendance of houndreds of people. I asked about the dog but I was told it was a sculptures touch.





I though this was HILARIOUS!!!!
