First RV Trip

Miss Mia, hogging the couch in the RV!  Lookin' cute doin' it, though!

Kennedy, chillin' with Mia in the little space that was left!

The Alamo

The Manning Girls

Charles, the girls...and a crazy stuffed buzzard he brought with us to take pictures for work.  It is their "mascot" or something.  We got some CRAZY stares from people who thought we were lugging around a REAL bird!

Our portable home-away-from-home that will FINALLY allow us to have some vacations!  We never realized how necessary those were...until we took one! 

We took our first RV trip about 2 weeks ago to San Antonio.  We forgot the camera the day we went to Fiesta Texas...which happened to be Father's Day and the MOST enjoyable day of the trip!  Kennedy was TERRIFIED on most of the rides, but ended up liking them.  Mia's first real roller coaster...and Kennedy's too...was a crazy ride called The Boomerang.  It went forward, backward and UPSIDE DOWN!  It was the first ride we went on after we entered the park.  It may have been a bit of an aggressive start, looking back now!  Poor Kennedy was sitting with Charles in front of me so I could sit with Mia to coach her through the ride.  When we got to the top before the first free-fall, Kennedy was sobbing in fear.  She ended up saying she liked it, but it was questionable!  Mia did AWESOME!  It was a pretty scary ride!

True sisters!

How sweet is this!!??  This little family was swimming down the Riverwalk with us!

Kirby...the RV Dog!  He is one of the main reasons we got an RV.  Now our WHOLE family can travel together!!!  He LOVED being with us!  He is the sweetest beast on the planet!

We did manage to take a few pictures the day we visited The Alamo and The Riverwalk.  It was a fun trip.  A major learning experience with our first time to take the RV out...but now we have done it!  It SHOULD be easier next time!  In fact, we are leaving again tomorrow for a short trip for the weekend!  Hopefully, we will remember the camera!

BTW...Blogger has totally changed since I used to post regularly.  I am having some issues with it...and I have no idea why my pictures are out of order, and why the text is not all together!  Oh well!  ;)

Check this out!

Charles and I recently realized that it is time to start enjoying life more, relaxing, and building memories with Mia and Kennedy!  Since I am totally grossed out by the germ potential in hotel rooms, and they are ridiculously over priced...we just got an RV and we are planning to make frequent short trips.  The girls are super excited!  We are too!  As soon as Charles learns how to back this thing up, it will be awesome!  For now, we will plan only locations with pull-through sites!

We're Back!!!



Mia with her sister Kennedy...the mermaid!

Just plain cute!

Kennedy holding Mia as they attempted to jump this wave!

Beach Bums

Happy kids!

Me and my girls!

My sweet hubby and beautiful daughters!

Mia and I were relaxing in this chair looking out over the bay.  How sad is it that my legs are still so much whiter than Mia's after spending 2 days on the beach??!!

It was time to head home from the beach, but they were not ready!!
