Spring Break 2011

Spring Break was FUN! I really hate to see it coming to an end! But, only 53 more school days until summer!!! Here's how it went down:
Saturday, March 12th--Stephen and I took a stroll down to Nac.....I got my hair done again. We spent time with the family. Saturday evening my BIL (who should cook professionally, he's THAT good) made gumbo! It was delicious.

Sunday, March 13th--woke up, ate a yummy brunch cooked again by my BIL! Said goodbye to the hubby and doggie, then my sister, niece, and I headed off to Galveston Island! We got to G I, checked into our hotel, went out to dinner. We tried to go to Rainforest Cafe only to find out there was a 2 hour wait. No thanks! We ended up at McAlister's Deli. It was equally delicioius. back to the hotel to chill out....

Monday, March 14th--We woke up, went to Rainforest Cafe (no wait this time, we got there at 11) :)....then we headed on over to Moody Gardens. We watched a cool ocean 3D movie, rode the Colonel Paddlewheel boat, went into the aquarium, Discovery Museum......for dinner we ate at Wendy's. I know, real exciting!! Then we went down to the beach. back to hotel to chill out again.....

Tuesday, March 15th--We woke up, went to Casey Gaido's (not as good as Gaido's but the pecan pie is still to die for!); we rode the ferry, went shopping on the strand, had a yummy shake at a soda shop, rode in a horse/carriage, went to dinner at Saltgrass, went back to the beach. You know, it was REALLY cold down there!!! back to hotel to chill out.....

Wednesday, March 16th--Murdochs for some goodies, breakfast at IHOP, headed back to Nac!

Thursday, March 17th--lunch w/ my mom at Posados, got to tour the school that I went to during elementary (my mom still works there), parents brought me half way home where my hubby picked me up and took me home!!

Friday, March 18th--Hubby took off work and we just hung out all day!

Saturday, March 19th: Yard work!! then we went to Frisco to meet my sister, BIL, and nephew--we ate at Babe's, one of my favorite restaurants!! :); went shopping at Christmas Tree Shops (my 2nd favorite store, only behind Target of course)

Sunday, March 20th--the dread begins!! :)


This is how I currently look; not so pretty!! With the help of my lymphedema pump, the swelling is really going down! It still hurts so so bad though. :( I don't think it will ever be the same. I really wish I wouldn't have had surgery.....
