Labor Day Weekend











We had a very eventful labor day weekend. My family came down from Nebraska and we stayed busy pretty much every minute they were here. They got in later Friday night, and the next day we went to Sea World. It was so much fun! Cole and Rosalinda were even pulled out of the audience for this little show. We have it on video if you want to see it!! I'm sure Rosalinda would love that!!! All of the shows were great. We even went to this 4-D movie. We had on 3-D glasses and in the theatre you would have air and water blown in your face. You should have heard Becky scream! That was a lot of fun.



The next day we went to the River Walk. It was fairly hot that day, but I think everyone enjoyed it. We ate at a Joe's Crab Shack and I think I surprised everyone when I wanted to talk to a manager when we found out that our waitress added gratuity to our check when she wasn't supposed to. We asked her if it was for parties of 8 or more, or for 6 or more. Jessica had thought she read on the menu that it was for 8 or more, but our waitress said no it was for 6. Well we had 7 people. I asked the hostess at the front and she said it should've been 8. So I wanted to talk to the Manager. I don't like it when people lie to me. Plus, we almost tipped her extra on top of the gratuity because at first we didn't see that she added it. I guess teaching has made me less passive!!




Their last day we my dad, Cole, Rosalinda, Brian and I went mountain biking in the morning. Cole even tackled the steep part. Then went up to the outlet malls in San Marcos. The car they drove down was already pretty packed, but they managed to squeeze more things into it. One of the nights we also played a really fun game called "Catch Phrase". We had a lot of laughs that night. I think all of our cheeks were sore at the end of it!!!
