San Antonio Trip ( I'm engaged!!! )

Sorry I haven't written in so long, it has been such a whirlwind the last few months! Here are a few pictures from our San Antonio trip......enjoy!
Okay, let's start with the beginning of the trip. We flew into San Antonio on Thursday morning (May 1st) and we were VERY early( Us? Early? No way... :) ) We spent the morning walking the Riverwalk and it was a beautiful day. We ate and walked and enjoyed all the sights, it was great!

The picture below is of the Riverwalk..awesome!


For dinner that first night, Nathan had made reservations at the Tower of the Americas (below). It was AMAZING....I think they said it was 775 feet tall and it looked every foot of it. It was SO tall. They had a glass elevator that went up the side to take you to the very top where the restaurant was. You could see all of downtown San Antonio from up there and it revolved! It was awesome! We went right as the sun was starting to set and stayed until after the city lit up at night. It was very romantic :)






Right as the sun was setting, Nathan left to go to the bathroom and then came back and said he had something to show me. When I got to the edge of the booth, he told me to stop and then he got down on one knee and proposed!! I was so surprised and happy at the same time! He had tricked me all day!! Here is a picture of us soon after he popped the question.......



The fun didn't stop there! On Saturday, we went to Sea World and had a blast! We paid extra for the early admission "Ultimate Seafari" tour. If any of you are considering going, I would highly recommend this tour. It is SO worth the money! We were admitted into the park an hour and a half before it opened to the public and they gave us a little continental breakfast. Then we went to see the dolphins. We got to feed them and pet them and play. It was the BEST part of the tour! There was 15 or so of us so it wasn't crowded and the dolphins were hungry!

Happy Birthday Shamu!!




We got to go behind-the-scenes and pet Stingrays and a little shark! We got to hold and feed a Lemur, which was AWESOME! He was so cute! Now I want a monkey....... :)
