Nora thought she could catch the pigeons because they walk slower than grackles.

SAN ANTONIO TRIP - DAY 5

We drove back home yesterday afternoon. These pictures were taken at our lunch stop in Salado. Overall, we had a great vacation. Nora really enjoyed her first vacation trip. Dad and Mom were glad that they purchased the portable dvd player ahead of time for the car. It made the trip easier.

SAN ANTONIO TRIP- DAY 4

We spent part of the day at the San Antonio Children's Museum which Nora just loved.
