Cool in the Pool

Thursday, I headed to Snyder and then on to Lubbock for a Pool Party at Courtney's neighborhood pool. The plans were for a warm and sunny pool party complete with homeade ice cream, but after a few cloudy and rainy days, we had a cool pool party and homeade ice cream. Courtney, Amy, Abbye and I were the only ones brave enough to enjoy the cool water. Once we adjusted to the temperature it wasn't that bad. I don't think it bothered Abbye one bit. She is quite the little fish!!

After swimming, Abbye showed off her cycling skills!

It was a fun evening with family!

From Hot to Cool

A few weeks ago we visited the hot San Antonio Riverwalk...

This weekend we visited the cool, indoor Gaylord Texan Riverwalk.

I went to the Frog Street Educational Conference at the Gaylord. Since I was the only one from my school going this year, Joey went along with me. While I attended the conference on Friday, he played golf and went to the pool. Then Friday night, we enjoyed the fireworks over Lake Grapevine from Level 5 of the parking garage. The had it all set up for firework viewing. After the fireworks, we walked around and the hotel and looked at all the beautiful landscaping (even the dirt is pretty!), model trains, and pieces of art. Saturday, I went back to meetings and Joey went back to enjoy the pool and hung out around the hotel while waiting for me. During my lunch break, we took walked around for some daytime pictures! It is such a neat place to visit and to stay!

Joey and his photography eye took this neat picture!

3 Cheers for the Red, White, and Blue!
