Remember the Alamo!

Bradley, Chris and I took a quick trip to San Antonio a few weekends ago. We enjoyed dinner on the River Walk and put Bradley to bed at our hotel. Around 4:30am... he woke up. After about an hour of trying to get him back to sleep, we cut our losses and got ready to be the first ones at breakfast!

We just googled "good place for breakfast in San Antonio" and found the Guenther House! It wasn't until I got there that I realized-- I'd been there before! We used to visit my Aunt and Uncle in San Antonio and the Guenther House was always our breakfast spot!
After breakfast we headed back to our hotel, then walked over to the Alamo. Where we found...
Protesters!

At first we didn't think much of it. Then we got closer... it was a gun rally! All of these people had some sort of gun (most of them large and scary) and here we were, strolling our one year old child through the masses.

I felt much safer once we were inside. Apparently, so did Bradley:
He quickly fell asleep:
I guess he won't remember the Alamo!

Actually, he did wake up eventually, so we could get some adorable photos with his awesome new hat:
Later we visited the Children's Museum of San Antonio. Bradley was drawn to the light board-- just like in Houston!
And found some new things to play with, too:
On our way out of town we stopped at a local brewery:
And visited my pal, Adrienne and her adorable baby girl, Caroline (I can't believe we didn't take any photos!!)

It was a quick trip from Houston and we really enjoyed just a taste of what San Antonio has to offer... we look forward to going back!
