On to San Antonio

After visiting Devon's family we went on to San Antonio to visit my sister Emilee and her family. In Denton James got sick, we weren't even sure he was sick, it seemed like such a fluke, but he was and every cousin that we saw got the sickness, and poor Devon who had it the worst and for a week instead of 2 days like the kids. Anyway, Spencer got sick on the 4th of July, so we stayed home and made our own celebration.
We decorated our bikes and had a bike parade.

Spencer's $5 garage sale bike

Jame's didn't mind riding pink

Scott joined in the fun too.

Then we did pop-its- who doesn't love pop-it's?

That night we watched the fireworks from Sea World since my sister lives so close we just had to go out side.  Devon got some cool pictures of the kids playing with glow sticks.

We visited a cave called Cascade Caverns.  This dinosaur was a prop that was used in a movie they filmed here (a long time ago)

Spencer is following in his dad's footprints, we had to clear his camera from all the other pictures he took in Texas before he could take pictures here.

This is James in the bucket they used to use to lower people into the cave- i like the modern intrance much better.

There cave was pretty neat inside.

Spencer's favorite part was the bat on the ceiling, which was a very lucky find since it was not the right season for them to be there.  My favorite part was the Mastadon bones, I've never seen those in a cave.

On the last day we had a cousin birthday party because all the cousins have birthdays in the summer.  We started with the classic water balloon toss.

Then we threw water balloons at a target, which was a little easier for the little ones.

We did a pinata

With lots of candy for the trip home

In spite of getting sick, we had a great time.
