Grace's Spring Break

Hola!

For spring break my parents, our dog and I traveled to Texas to visit my brother, Phil. Our trip was filled with good food, lots of laughter, and wonderful memories.

On Saturday, Phil played tour guide to Kimmie and I. Dougie was not allowed to tour Lockheed Martin, as he is not an American.

He missed out on getting one of these super cool name badges. 
I also felt like a true rebel as I smuggled in my cell phone...oops. Phil was kind enough to take ownership of my phone while we were in the building, so all was good. It was cool to see where he worked and all that goes into making certain planes, but the best part was his cubicle. Phil is the proud owner and user of a standing desk. Kimmie must have brought it up and down half a dozen times.

After a few days with Phil, we traveled to San Antonio. I loved San Antonio. It was such a cute little town and it seemed to just have a certain charm to it. Our time here consisted of a lot of walking. So much walking, in fact, that Boomer got tired and quit mid-walk. My mom stayed behind with him at one of the 4 Missions in San Antoio, while Dad and I rented bikes to get the car. In hindsight it was probably our fault to push Boomer for such a long walk, but really what dog quits on a walk.

Dougie and I did take this killer selfie mid ride! 

After our time was up in San Antonio we headed back to Fort Worth, but this time Anna would be joining us for the weekend! My brother only works every other Friday and he was lucky enough to have the Friday Anna was there off, so once again we went on another walk. This time we went to Dinosaur Valley State Park! You can actually see real dinosaur tracks, but most of them were underwater. 
Phil had a teleconference during our time at Dino Valley, but that did not stop the rest of us on going for a short hike. 
On Saturday we went to Six Flags and I'm proud to announce that Philip Hoffman rode all the rollercoasters!!! And don't think he will let you forget that anytime soon... 


I'll leave you with this picture that I think accurately describes my spring break.



xoxo,
Grace and Boomer
