Moved and On To The Next Adventure

I haven't been posting much lately as we have been super busy. I had my last day of work on Monday and was able to pack up and get ready to move to our new place. Then Chance's grandma passed away and that took us by surprise. She was a good lady and we had her funeral a couple of days ago. She will be missed. Now I am officially moved and with my hubby (he moved before I did, I worked a few more weeks). Tonight we leave to go to Asheville, North Carolina to visit the Biltmore as it is all decorated for Christmas. We have been there once before and it was one of our favorite places so it should be fun. We will only be there a couple of days then head back home. Pictures to come of our trip, new place and a couple new additions to the family. 

Check out this link it talks about how the Biltmore grows it's own poinsettias!!

San Antonio Adventures

Our latest adventure took us to San Antonio, Texas where we stayed for two days after flying into the city. I have been there a few times before but Chance hadn't so it was all the more fun to be with someone seeing everything for the first time. The main thing that we wanted to do was see the Alamo and the Riverwalk which are right next to each other downtown.

We ended up meeting my Aunt and her husband and staying on the 12th floor of a hotel not too far from downtown. We were able to walk to everything which was good because driving there is rather hectic and no parking.





 This was a church we ran into on one of our walks that supposedly has buried many people who died at the Alamo. It is rather difficult to know who these people are considering the circumstances surrounding their death, that is why it is unsure. The church is beautiful. 


The Alamo is unique though my favorite part is the grounds around the building itself. The Riverwalk is also a neat place to walk along though it was crowded it was still nice.

We also discovered that there are multiple missions in San Antonio that are more authentic than what is left of the Alamo. These were a grand discovery!








We also ate delicious Mexican and BBQ food while in San Antonio!


Needless to say we were very busy for those two days we stayed in the city and were ready to head to Corpus Christi and the beach.
