Anniversary Weekend Part 3: Cabela's

We made the trip up to Buda to visit Cabela's. We have been there several times because Kase loves to go and look at the big fish in the aquarium and the mounted deer. They have one room that is never very crowded full of large award winning mounted bucks. He loves it and runs from animal to animal saying "wow!! Bucks!!" So cute :)

He ran around till he made himself and me very tired. So we got back in the car and made our way back to San Antonio. He gladly took a nap in the car on the way back.

Kase and Daddy testing out a cot


And nap time on the cot... maybe mommy needs to buy a cot.


Running from mommy because tents are more fun!

Anniversary Weekend Part 2: Children's Museum

As part of our long weekend we visted the children's museum in San Anotonio. It was so much fun to watch Kase run and play. I do have to say that the one in Houston is much bigger and better but we still had tons of fun!


Enjoy the pictures!






Milking the Cow!
Big nail board. Daddy made lots of fun hand prints with Kase!

They had this really cool water table that had a current. You can make a maze and block the water to watch which way the boats would go down the table. I think Daddy had more fun the Kase did.

Slide at the children's museum that sounded like water running when you slid down.



Kase loved the lightboard especially when mommy decided to write his name in it.




The event of the day... The Air plane!

Anniversary Weekend Part 1: San Antonio Zoo

I know I know, It's been forever since I've posted. I'm trying to do better :) So here is some fun stuff.

A couple weeks back for our Anniversary we decided to get a hotel room on the river walk. We had so much fun on a 4 day weekend. We went to Cabella's, walked the Riverwalk, ate at the Rain Forest Cafe, went to the zoo and children's museum.
We had an amazing day at the zoo. It was Kase's very first trip to the zoo and as far as I can remember my first trip to the San Antonio zoo. The first half of the day started out cool (well for Texas weather). We were able to see several of the bears and big cats before the day got too hot. The big hit was the new area called Africa Live. This area has an indoor view of Hippos and several other African animals. You can then walk outside through a really nice walk area to see the Giraffes, Elephants and Okapi. The hit of the day was by far the hippo. Once Kase noticed the Hippo in the water that was all he was about to talk about all day. It was so exciting.

At the Zoo they have a little kids play area complete with a little river that you can play in. Kase had tons of fun with the little rocks.

We road the little zoo train around the park. Kase loves choochoos so this was the 2nd best event of the day!


Relatives?


Look we've adopted :) lol The hippo experience is great! I love that the kids can get so up close and see the hippos face to face.


Kase having a solo moment with his favorite creature on earth. He loves to talk about hippos. At the house we have a little floating hippo. He had a hard time saying Hippo at first so it came out baaboo. Now that he has perfected the word hippo we now have a stuffed animal named Baaboo the Hippo :)
