We've been up to...

We went to Texas at the beginning of August where we had a lot of fun boating on Lake Conroe (our favorite lake in the whole world!) and hanging out at Schlitterbaun. For those of you who have never heard of Schlitterbaun, it is the world's biggest water park. Yes, I said world's biggest...and after being there a couple of times I would have to say that statement is most likely true. We also went down to San Antonio to the river walk and explored some underground caverns a.k.a. caves. We had a blast hanging out with Austin's family and relaxing for a whole week.

Below are the caves we hiked through.


We went to the riverwalk in San Antonio. Since it was just Austin and I, we only get to take pictures of one of us at a time.


Here is just a section of the river walk with a river tour going on. It was really tempting every time we passed someone to just give them a little nudge and push them in to the river. There are tons of shops and restaurants all along the river walk. It's pretty cool I guess.
This is just a small section of Schlitterbaun. This is in the newer section of the park, but there is an original section, built first, that is all powered by river water from the Comel river. I love it, there is so much to do there and never a dull moment.

woo woo

Aunt Carol made us get up early and get to the park an hour early so we could be first in line. Then, when they officially opened the park, Amy and I and a few of the cousins had to sprint to this table. Apparently it is tradition to sit here and I must say, it is the best spot in the whole park.
