out and about

This week we tried to get out and enjoy a little bit of San Antonio. Rhone is great entertainment, but we do actually ty to do other things too. Ben has really late sims (6pm to midnight) so on Friday afternoon we went to see Sea World. We made it to one of the shows called Viva. It has synchronized swimmers, divers, acrobats, Pacific white-sided dolphins and beluga whales. The dolphins were really cool. We got a little video clip, but hopefully we can get a better one later on. We decided to get a season pass, so we didn't feel like we had to cram everything into one trip which is nice. Here are a few of the other sites from the trip.

On Saturday Fort Sam Houston (it's an army post here) had a Cowboy event. While the cowboy life style isn't anything new to us, it was still fun to see it. There were pony rides and mutton bustin' for the kids, some yummy chuck wagon meals, and live music. The best part was that it was all free. We had a great time, well a good time, I hurt my back this weekend and that put a little damper on things. While we were there some guy came up to me and asked if I had sunscreen, which I did in the diaper bag. It was the first time I really felt like a mom. Some stranger who had just gotten home from a deployment to Germany figured I would be prepared with my baby and diaper bag- I guess I must look like a mom to the rest of the world.

Since March is almost gone so is Ben's 'stache. We figured that you would all enjoy the picture.

Rhone has learned to love his bumbo seat. I think he looks so cute in it, but maybe a little toogrown up too.

Rhone mesmerized by the fan in our bedroom.
