David's Birthday and our 2nd Anniversary weekend at the Gaylord Texan

David's mom bought us a hotel room at the Gaylord Texan resort for two nights for David's birthday and our anniversary! We stayed Friday night (8th) and Saturday night (9th). It was a lot of fun! The Gaylord is HUGE! It was decorated to look like Texas, and had a river rinning through it and trees, and it was beautiful! Here are some pictures:

The Mission area of the Gaylord (all under an enormous glass roof!)

Our room! It was on a corner so it was really big.

This was the view from our balcony (Our room faced the indoor atrium)From our balcony, to the left. This is the Riverwalk area of the Gaylord; it looks just like the Riverwalk in San Antonio! (Remember, this is all indoors!)
From our balcony, to the right. That is one entrance to the conference/shopping area of the Gaylord.

Mother's Day 2009

To Laura, Sherrie, Angela, Gran, Grandma Helen, Grandma Mary, and Granny Dorothy,

Thank you for being such wonderful mothers and grandmothers! Your loving and comforting examples are so inspirational to us!


In loving memory of Nana Tommie and Great-Grandmother Georgia,

I think of you both so often. I can't wait to show Gracie pictures and tell her about you as she grows older, so that she may know what very special grandmothers you were.


We love all of you very, very much!
