San Antonio!

Last week I had the opportunity to go to San Antonio with Adam. He had a conference and training sessions that were being held there. I found a really cheap plane ticket so I decided to join him since everything else was paid for! I actually flew into San Antonio a day after Adam. There were things at home that needed to be taken care of which prevented me from leaving a day earlier. The day I was to arrive, the city had a major rain and thunder storm and was put on a tornado watch. I don't know what it is with me flying into Texas. Second time for a tornado watch. By the time my plane landed, the storm had passed and the weather was perfect! Adam picked me up from the airport and we went sight seeing. This was the first time that we had been away from our kids longer than one day. Thanks to my mom, brother, and sister-in-law for watching the kids for us so we could spend a little alone time together. I loved San Antonio! Our hotel was located right on the famous River Walk. We went on a boat tour of the River Walk and saw and heard some really neat history. We ate at some really good restaurants there as well. While Adam was in classes I walked around the city and along the River Walk. I spent one day shopping and decided to get my first manicure. The cool thing about the River Walk is, it's like an underground world. From the city you very seldom see any of the River Walk. After you walk down a few levels, this underground world is exposed. Tree's, building, and restaurants line the river. After staying there for a while it really made me miss Utah! I have come to realize that I take a lot of things for granted. I'm grateful I can walk down town at home and not feel like I just en haled a pack of cigarettes or smell like I have. :) Adam and I also had the opportunity to do a session in the San Antonio Temple. That experience gets a post in itself! If you ever have the chance to go, GO! So awesome! We had such a good time! It was nice to spend the weekend together!
