Auntie Hodder (Heather) was in San Antonio for the week, so we made the drive out there to visit her. Finley did great on both drives there, which was fantastic considering she had just finished a road trip to Fort Worth. The way home she napped for nearly the entire ride. If I hadn't stopped for gas, I am guessing she would have slept the entire way.
We went to La Cantera for lunch and stopped at Neiman Marcus for one of their famous
chocolate chip cookies. They were so yummy. Finley and I shared one, but she ate the majority of it. The ones in the store us mini chocolate chips, so I am going to try the recipe again.
Heather's dad was kind enough to babysit a sleeping Finley so that Heather and I could go out and meet some of her girlfriends. We had a delicious dinner at Alamo Cafe and then headed over to Kona Grill for margaritas on the patio. We also got a nice peek at the fireworks from Six Flags next door. Too bad Finley was sleeping and missed the big show.
We had some yummy barbecue with Heather, her dad and her grandmother. Finley did great and ate a ton of fried okra, as long as she doesn't see the green part, she is good with eating it. I had a slice of lemon meringue pie, which Finley was sort of good with, but then Auntie Hodder got her a cookie and she was so much happier. What is it with this girl and her cookies? She is a cookie monster for sure!
We cannot wait to see Heather again, she is waiting for a new baby of her own and when he decides to arrive, we will head up to Vail to visit the new family!
