Happy 4th of July

Pete and I really were absent minded when it came to making plans for this Fourth of July. With him being in New Jersey during the week now, we really did not know when he would be home or for how long. So last minute planning, we decided to do what Alli has been wanting to do. Alli has been wanting to spend the night in a hotel room and order room service. Ordering room service was the most important and most talked about part. On Tuesday, we drove about 5 miles down the road to The Westin Resort at La Cantera for an early check-in. We started our vacation with a nice lunch and then we were off to the pool. We played at the pool for awhile. It was a good thing we got the early check-in because it started storming just as we were leaving the pool. We spent the rest of the night in our room. We did order room service and Alli could not wait to answer the door. She and Tori ate their dinner on their bed and thought it was so cool. After dinner we watched a movie. The movie ended just in time for the fireworks show from Fiesta Texas. We made sure we had a room that faced Fiesta Texas so we could watch them from our balcony. Katie missed out on everything. She goes to bed pretty early. And on this night, she was especially tired from all the swimming. Our hotel bathroom became Katie's room. I set up the pac-n-play in there so she would not be disturbed by all the noise her sisters were making. I did say that we spent the rest of the night in our room, but since our bathroom was off limits, that is not so true. We took several trips down the hall to the elevator to get to a bathroom.........the things I do to keep my kids on a good sleep schedule!! Overall, the "vacation" was great because the girls enjoyed it so much. But I was not overly impressed with the resort.............but then again, the last two resorts that I have been to were free trips that Pete won through work to The Four Seasons in Great Exuma, Bahamas and The One and Only Palmilla in Cabo. The Westin was nice, but not quite as nice as the others!!
The next day we went over to MoMo's to spend some time the family.
