New Years Resolution

One of my resolutions this year is to start blogging on a more consistent basis again. So be on the lookout for more pictures and recaps of our busy lives.

I'll start this out with a recap of my trip to San Antonio. My birthday & Christmas gift from my parents this year was a trip to see the Huskies in the Alamo Bowl. Just my dad and I went and we had a great time =)

Our flight left Wednesday morning at 6:00 a.m. We finally arrived in SA around 3:00. We checked in and then headed to the Riverwalk for some dinner. We ate at Dick's Last Resort. It is a fun sports bar where they give you service with sarcasm. My dad needed some napkins and this is what we got:
Napkins just thrown at us!!
We started off with nachos and then my dad ordered BBQ ribs & chicken and I had catfish. It was all pretty tasty.After we walked around the Riverwalk and stopped and got gelato and ice cream from Tuscani's. It was pretty tasty.We woke up Thursday morning and hung out at our Motel and got ready for the game. We had lunch at Pat O'Briens then went to the Tower of the Americas to check out the view. You could see for miles and miles!! We could even see our motel which was a couple miles away.
Ready for the game!
Jambalaya, Gumbo & Red beans and rice
Shrimp po boy
The Alamo
We then walked across to the Alamo Dome and the Husky tailgating party. We ended up meeting the mother of a cheerleader and I also got rudely snubbed by Joe Montana for a picture!!
Joe Montana = rude jerk!
It was a back and forth game full of fast paced scoring... we were exhausted by the end!! The Dawgs ended up losing 56-67 =[ It was the most entertaining losing game I've been too.
Chris Polk = a beast!
We got back to our hotel after midnight and caught another 6:00 a.m. flight back home.
