A Great Vacation!!

Day 1: Wednesday, we left for San Antonio, on a plane, at 8:15 and got here about 12 something!! We came to our motel and prepared our rooms etc. and then left for the Riverwalk!! We were there for a while and then Grandma, Grandpa, Eric and Ashlee met us at the Riverwalk and we at at a Mexican Restraunt.



Day 2: Thursday, graduation activities begin!! :) We had not seen Travis yet...until the Coin Ceremony. The whole flight, 323, recieved a coin for all that they did. Trav's flight was 323!! :)

When the ceremony was done he was relesed for base pass, but, wait let us go back to the wonderful moment we saw Travis David Englund for the first time in 2 monthes...that is when we got to talk and be with him! Charity was so glad to see him, she even cried!! :)



Day 3: Friday, GRADUATION!!!! Travis played the base drum in the graduation!! And his flight ended up walking RIGHT past where we were sitting!! :) He was relesed for town pass and we went to the Riverwalk, we ate at THE REPUBLIC OF TEXAS, met and gave him his graduation present (which was built by Eric) and then he had to be returned to base!



Day 4: Saturday, THE OCEAN!!!!!!!! We went to Padro Island!! It was all four of us kiddos first time to be to the ocean!! IT WAS GREAT!!! We were able to collect several seashells! We saw two dead jellyfish!! :D I went the farthest out into the Gulf then anybody else in my family! It was fun! I would get my skirt wet then go get in the sand!! :) It was a fun day! (Grandma, Grandpa, Eric, and Ashlee left for Dallas)



Day 5: Sunday, we went to church with Travis! He had base pass so we were able to be there with him..we ate at the big BX (base exchange) and ate, then we let Char and Trav have some alone time while we went to change our clothes, then we met them at a park there on the base, then the very hard time came...to say goodbye to Travis. I OF COURSE cried. I get very emotional about stuff. I felt so bad for Charity, for none of us know when we will see him again.



Day 6: Today, we went the San Antonio Zoo today!! We got to see Black Lepords!! :D Charity left today, she got delayed though which is annoying. :( Now we are sitting in the motel.



Day 7: Tomorrow, we leave.......=( =(







Well, that is what has been up with us for the past few days!





Souviners: U.S Air Force Stationary Kit, a Texas pin, a AF pin, Texas post cards, AF postcards, a lion squished quarter, a Snow Leopard, and Trav is going to buy and send my a bear in either blues or camo, not sure...





Well, later!!

P.S. we drove as far south, on pavement, as we could while on Padro Island!! And we drove all around Corpis Christi bay!!!
