Vacation Day One - The Suite Life

We had the most WONDERFUL vacation!!! We applied lessons learned on our Moody Gardens overnight and all went much smoother. Still a lot of work, but a LOT OF FUN!!!! We did soooo much that to blog it all tonight would be too much for me, so I will break it up by day.

On Wednesday we drove to San Antonio with one stop to let everyone potty and eat. We have a travel potty in the car which is a must have for us. I do not want to take 3 little bodies to public restrooms... LOVE OUR POTTY. Our potty comes with liners, but to save money and time, I use small trash bags and put a feminine liner in the bottom to absorb. Works great!!!

We got to the Hyatt Hill Country and checked in. We learned in Oklahoma that a suite is worth the money with little ones. We can put them in their room, turn out the lights, then go to our room and watch tv. We tried sleeping everyone in one room at Moody Gardens and learned that was a mistake. The hotel was BEAUTIFUL!!! We explored the grounds, then put on swimsuits and floated on the lazy river around the hotel, then played on the hotel beach. We loaded everyone upstairs, showered, dressed, and went to dinner at Cracker Barrel. Dinner was good, but Kaylee broke a little plate and cried about it the whole evening.

We tried sleeping the triplets in a queen bed at Moody Gardens, but found they were too close for comfort, so this trip we took sleeping bags which worked much better. Cody went into a pack and play... but was not happy the 1st night... he later learned lights out means time to sleep.

Jerry and I fell into bed and thus ended our 1st day in San Antonio.
