Adventures in Texas

Well, it has been a busy week, but alot of fun!!! Mom and I have kept busy during the day shopping and walking around San Antonio. These pictures are off of my moms camera, so those of you that also look at her blog will recognize most of these.



On Tuesday we went to a Big outlet mall and ate lunch at Johnny Rockets. The whole time we were eating we were watching a cat outside looking for scrapes of food. All of you know how I feel about animals and how I start to feel sorry for anything I think is suffering so we took some food off out plates to give him. He loved it!! The shopping was great... especially since I don't get to do that in Rockford very much.

Yesterday we went to see Dad at work and got a tour of the plant. We were told that we had to act like potato specialists but I don't think we really looked the part. I love to go through the plant and see the chips being made. This was my favorite plant he has worked at. It seemed alot more organized and cleaner than the others in the past.

I know this is a goofy picture of me but I thought it was really cool how the tortilla chips came out in perfect triangles!!

After going to dad's plant mom and I went to the river walk in down town San Antonio. It was really nice to walk along the river.

Today we are going to the house of some of mom and dad's friends and having the Thanksgiving meal. Then I think we are going to see August Rush (a movie that I really want to see) tonight.

The weather has been wonderful while I was here. It has been warm all week but today a "cold spell" came in and it is in the 50's. It is amazing to see how people react to it. I heard we got snow in Illinois yesterday. I am really enjoying the food here! I feel like I don't even get time to get hungry before it is time to eat again. I am enjoying it while I can because I know that when I get home it will be back to sandwiches and mac 'n cheese. Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!!!
