Spring Getaway - San Antonio - Day 2/3 - Mommy/Daddy Time

So, after the Kiddie Park, we dropped Madden off at Lainey & Pops House (my parents) for some time with them and Caroline and the dogs! He had never stayed there by himself, but he did great!

While Madden was getting lots of TLC, Marc and I headed downtown to the Westin on the Riverwalk. We had a corner suite that was fabulous! 2 rooms, a bathroom as large as our bedroom and everything was HEAVENLY!

We rested and showered before meeting our friends for dinner on the river.











We had such a fun night! Good laughs, good people watching and good food! Boy, we made some funny memories that night.....



Saturday morning, we slept in and headed to breakfast at the Guenther House. A MUST if you are ever in San Antonio. We ordered a cinnamon roll for our appetizer, then got waffles, biscuits and gravy and all the fixings! We ate outside on the patio and it was just a lovely morning.





After breakfast, I was ready for a nap! I decided to take FULL advantage of the 'heavenly bed' and the TIME I had to just do nothing....so we just relaxed in the hotel for a few hours.




Then, we headed to Fredricksburg and met up with Marc's brother & sil and their friends. We shopped and shopped and shopped. Good thing we got there at 3 and the stores closed at 5 - otherwise we would've been broke! Great shopping there!




After shopping, we headed to dinner at the Hilltop Cafe. A little restaurant just outside of Fredricksburg.






























Ken, Cheryl, Cindy, Shane



It was a neat restaurant. My dinner was OK - but the dessert was wonderful....blackberry pie with ice cream! Yum!



After dinner, we drove back to our hotel in SA. Slept in on Sunday and enjoyed room service for breakfast. Then, we met up with friends for lunch before heading to pick up Madden.




While we were away having fun, here is what Madden was up to!














































The Easter bunny came and brought him lots of fun treats - including some cascarone eggs - which he loved! Oh the mess!










They played at the park....
















.....and loved on the puppies. Now Madden thinks he needs a dog! Not yet, son.... :)






SO - that completes the 3 series post of our little trip. It was perfect in everyway! Time together as a family, time for mommy/daddy alone, time for Madden with grandparents and time with friends. We made many good memories and look forward to another one in the future!
