San Antonio, Texas and Mother's Day


First, I want to wish my mom and Dave's mom a very Happy Mother's Day!  We love you both so much and we so appreciate you both.  We honestly are so blessed to have such great mothers!  We also want to wish all our friends and family a great 
Mothers Day!  Thanks for all the nice texts and posts!
Well. today we drove from Carlsbad, New Mexico into San Antonio, Texas.  Dave wanted to go straight to Dallas and I wanted to go to San Antonio.  Last night we decided we would go with Dave and go to Dallas, but being Mother's Day Dave surprised me and drove to San Antonio. When we arrived we decided to go to the 
Six Flags here in San Antonio.  It is only open on the weekends and we have a season pass.  Our goal is to visit all the Six Flags Theme Parks, and we figured we may not get back to this part of the country.  So this Mother's Day was an adrenalin rush.  This Six Flags kinda had a German Theme which might seem weird for 
the middle of Texas, but actually there is are a few towns nearby that have a very strong German influence.  There wasn't as many high speed roller coasters as Six Flags Magic Mountain, Valencia but the kids still had
a blast.  My favorite ride was the Scooby Doo Mystery House where you get a laser gun and you try and zap the ghosts.  The last ride of the day we went on the Rapids twice
and we all got soaked (I added a pic of us all wet).  It was worth it!  We really laughed hard trying to make the boat turn so that we wern't the unlucky one to go directly under the water fall.
 Tomorrow we hope to
 get laundry and some organizing done! Yeah!
