MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND 2012

Ryker and I packed up and headed to San Antonio for a long Memorial Day Weekend this year. Nick traveled to Las Vegas to spend a long golfing weekend with his dad, step-mom, and brothers. So what else were Ry and I to do? :)

We headed into SA with plans for every day we were there. We were able to go visit Barbara's house (Maya's mom) since that is where the Bradens were staying until their house was available. It was so great to see Barb, and I really had a fun afternoon over there. I think we spent the next day doing some shopping with my mom and Val. Friday we all took Ry to the SA Zoo...including my dad. Val's friend Ashley came too, and we meet up with the Bradens (minus Maya who was sick) and half of the Cadgers. We had a wonderful time. It was pretty hot, and Ryker was definitely ready to head out by naptime. He slept great that afternoon!

Saturday was a laid back day because Val and I were relaxing before we went downtown to celebrate Jaylyn's birthday at Howl At The Moon. Nick got us a hotel room on the Riverwalk with his Marriott points so we could really enjoy ourselves and stay the night. I HAD SO MUCH FUN that night! I haven't been out to a club since Ryker was born, and I needed a night out so badly. I always love hanging with Val, but I had an amazing time with so many great people. I LOVED IT! :0

Sunday was another laid back day. We were fairly sleep deprived from Saturday night, and I really wanted to spend time with the Ry man. We were able to watch a SPURS playoff game that night with my dad which was really fun since it hardly ever happens anymore.

Ryker and I headed home on Monday morning, and we spent the rest of the day with Nick. It was a really fun long weekend for all of us. I loved it!







My poor Dory baby got bit by a rattlesnake while we were visiting. I think it was Wedensday evening. She found the snake in the garden at my parent's house, and luckily, their neighbors were outside and saw the whole thing. My dad helped me take her to the vet, and she was treated quickly with anti-venom and many other meds. She was feeling better by the next morning (eating and drinking), and she was almost back to herself in a week. Thank God for modern dog medicines!
