we took the girls to the salon to get their fingers and toes painted! they were in heaven. they were all so still and so quiet . . . and of course everyone thought they were so cute and well behaved! what a fun (but rare!!!) treat! :) we had lunch at chick-fil-a and then hit the road! :)
next stop . . . the animal safari! the kids loved it! i think we arrived a little late in the day for all of the animals to be hungry . . . but there were still a few with appetites! one emu in particular really got a little too anxious for the food that ken had . . . see the picture at the bottom? :) poor kid! :) the girls loved the petting zoo . . . complete with brand new baby goats and an enormous pig! we checked out some cool peacocks too! then it was time to hit the hotel!
after checking in and getting settled we walked the river walk and headed to the rain forest cafe for a yummy dinner and lots of entertainment. the kids were in awe of everything. we sat right next to the elephant so they thought that was awesome too! we topped dinner off with a huge volcano dessert! poor little b.c. was so worn out by the time we got back to the hotel that he fell asleep in the stroller . . . a rare occurrence!
on saturday we hit six flags as they opened at 10 and went strong all day long. the kids rode all the rides . . . and some of them more than once. it was overcast and never got hotter than 80! how perfect! the girls had so much fun and were able to ride many of the rides together by themselves! it was a treat to watch them! we left the park around 5:30 with 4 tired kids!
sunday was a low key day . . . i woke up to lots of wonderful homemade presents from the kids and a few nice gifts and cards! we had a nice breakfast, visited the hotel animals one last time and then we toured the alamo, walked along the river, and just took it easy! bailey splurged and took us all on a carriage ride before we headed out of the city! what a great trip!
