A Fabulous Weekend

Last weekend was pretty great. Glen and I drove down to San Antonio Friday night, and stopped halfway in a city named Gruene (pronounced "Green") to eat at our favorite restaurant, the Gristmill. When I hit 30 weeks Glen and I made a list of at least 10 things we wanted to do before we have the baby, and eating here was on the list.

Gruene is a cute little country town--the kind where everyone wears cowboy boots. There is always country dancing going on and lots of cute little shops. Anyway, the Gristmill is a delicious restaurant overlooking the Guadalupe river. And we LOVE the food. We have a lovely evening and then finished the trip to down to San Antonio.

Saturday morning Glen and I went to the San Antonio LDS Temple. It was EARLY for us but it was so nice getting to the temple bright and early, everything seemed so peaceful. A lot of people were surprised that I was there, being 34 weeks pregnant and all, but it really wasn't too bad. They always keep the San Antonio temple SUPER cold, so it was perfect for me. Plus, we knew we wouldn't be able to come back for a while after the baby comes. We had a great time.

Afterwards, we grabbed breakfast at a cute nearby cafe and then headed out to 4 different baby consignment stores.

I have a REALLY hard time paying full price for anything, and there were still several items on our list of things to get before baby comes. I had been checking craigslist like a crazy person for the past 3 months or so but never had any success. So we went to these 4 consignment stores and found just about everything we needed! It was such a rush--I seriously get a high when I save 50-75% on items I need. Anyway, it was a lot of fun, and we are a lot more prepared for baby to come. And he is due exactly 4 weeks from today!

Well that's about all I have to say for now, I'll update again soon!
