San Antonio Part II: Wild Oak Ranch


Annnnnd, the run-down on the hotel:

-Because April was still considered the "off season" our one bedroom suite with a full kitchen was very affordable.



-The pools were fantastic. Indoor and outdoor. Lazy river. Hammocks. Beach with sand. Lush vegetation. Cool playground.









I love that Ava took this picture and cut-off my head.

Let's be honest though, it's probably for the best.


Luke was an animal in the water. Which is quite funny considering he pitched quite a fit to get his swimming suit on.


Ava was good as gold with her little armies. I hope to get her swimming without them this summer. Either way she's easy in the pool because she's independent.


Max, on the other hand wanted to be independent of the water, not in the water. After a few floats down the river he was content to relax on his chair poolside.




-Instead of lighting the fire pits for s'mores, they showed an outdoor movie instead. (kind of a bummer cause I love me some s'mores)

-Our roomy accomodations allowed us to get creative with our sleeping arrangements. And creative we were. Hoping to get the most out of our stay, we put Max in the gigantic bathroom,




Ava got the floor of the bedroom, and Luke lucked out completely and got the king size bed all to himself.



Silly, I know, because that left Dan and I with the pullout couch in the living room, but we were then able to stay up as late as we wanted, eat food, and watch TV.

-My highest recommendations, to all who have the opportunity: Check out the availability and prices if you're planning a trip there. It is so worth it!


-We didn't have nearly enough time to enjoy all that was offered, but that just means one thing,



We've gotta go back!

That hotel looks awesome! I hope you do go back. WE want to go with you all to Sea World. We are going to go at least one more time. Let's try to plan a trip together.

I have never, ever, EVER, stayed in a place as nice as that. Holy Cow! I've gotta rethink this whole "we are a camping family" thing we've got going on.

By the wsy,I want to blow raspberries on Max's tummy and squeeze the rolls on his legs. A lot.
