Christmas Surprises!
We give our children 3 big presents each Christmas. This year, a couple of those three were group gifts. The second was a Wii and the 3rd was a letter that gave them a clue to another location in the house. This went on for 5 more clues until the final clue said, "Your final gift awaits you 3 hours from here, so pack your bags and let's get going." They had no idea where we were going and I have NEVER seen them so excited. They were completely taken off guard. We packed our stuff and about an hour later, we left for San Antonio. We went straight to the zoo which was cool. I couldn't believe it was open on Christmas Day! Then we went to our hotel on the Riverwalk which is beautiful and full of life. That was really fun. The next couple of days, we went to Sea World. None of us has ever been, so it was great for us all. It couldn't have been a better Christmas and we enjoyed being together.
