Last weekend we celebrated my mom's birthday. She took us girls (Me, my sis-in-law Cara and our friend Becky) to San Antonio. We surprised her by stopping mid-way for a pedicure that we evidently all needed. :) Cara and I had a hard time picking out colors... (I have no idea why this is underlined... can't seem to make it go away).
Our freshly painted tootsies...
We continued to head south and decided to stop in Gruene and eat at the Gristmill.
It was delicious and had awesome ambiance. I plan on making Brian take me back there someday soon. :) We headed on to San Antonio, found our hotel, checked in and decided to have dessert... and some appetizers at the Hard Rock Cafe on the river walk. This was not shaping up to be a healthy weekend.
On Saturday we got up and ate a late breakfast at the Madrid Room in the hotel. Then we headed out for a little shopping and some more eating. We got a ton of baked goods from a bakery we found (can't remember the name) and ate a gordita like thing from a booth in the middle of the marketplace. It was fried and wonderful. Then I ate a churro. Goodness. We headed to our Cirque show, Dralion. It was great as they always are! That night we made reservations at a nice restaurant named Ostra on the river walk. The food was yummy, but the service was terrible. 
After some more late shopping, it was off to bed. We ate breakfast the next morning, you guessed it, on the river walk. By this point my stomach was rolling, so I had fruit and toast. The best part about breakfast? A bird pooped on my arm. I had to keep my gag reflex in check - it was so nasty. A little more shopping and we started to head back home. We had a great weekend with lots of laughs and great conversation. Happy Birthday to my mom... How old is she you ask? I'll never tell... :)
