Robbie and I got to go on a rare trip without the girls to San Antonio over Spring Break. I was presenting at the national Council for Exceptional Children conference and Robbie attended the conference. My friend, and co-teaching partner, Melissa and I presented on co-teaching students with significant disabilities.
Robbie and I had a great time exploring the River Walk and seeing such sights as the Alamo...which was exactly what I pictured, just not where I pictured. It was in the middle of downtown right across the street from Ripley's Believe It or Not and a Fuddruckers and definitely seemed out of place!
We got to visit with an old friend from South Carolina that I used to teach with. Caroline and her husband moved to San Antonio last year and are expecting their first baby in a few months!
We also got to meet one of my fellow preemie moms from a private message board I'm on that I've "known" for years! We met up to go for a run since she is a fellow triathlete (and I knew my tri coach would ask if I'd worked out on vacation!). Alicia took me to a part of the River Walk (away from the tourists) that was beautiful! She also brought her beautiful kids to our hotel and we got to visit with the three of them. Little Savannah is a doll and her big brother, Kevin, became best buddies with Robbie!
The girls stayed with my aunt, dad, and sister and had a blast while we were gone! We are so thankful that they were so well taken care of while we were gone! Thanks, FA, Pop, and Sara!
