Happy Hump Day! We welcome you to another stop along our Farewell to Texas tour. As previously mentioned, we’ve been making the rounds to all of our favorite places in and around the San Antonio area before we move (in just over two weeks!). We first discovered Enchanted Rock a few years ago after a co-worker of mine […]

According to Gus, the River Walk is the best place in the entire city to spend a weekend morning. We agree! As we’ve mentioned in several previous posts, we head down to the River Walk every weekend to walk Gus and go for a run. As a family, the River Walk is our absolute favorite […]

Woot woot! We crossed another item off our Farewell to Texas list this weekend…The Alamo! I hate to admit this, but the first time we visited The Alamo back in 2004, all I could think about was Pee Wee’s Big Adventure. What! There’s no basement?! Although Mitch and I are downtown every weekend, we rarely […]

There’s no turning back. After working nearly seven years for the same company, I submitted my “official” letter of resignation on Monday. It was oddly liberating to turn in the letter – making it official sent a jolt of adrenaline through my body. Our 15 months of researching, planning and saving are about to pay off! To continue […]

Welcome to another stop along our “Farewell to Texas” tour! As we’ve mentioned in previous posts, we compiled a list of all our favorite places in Texas we wanted to visit one last time before we move. The Japanese Tea Garden was high on our list and we are so glad we made time last Friday […]

Happy Wednesday, Friends! Today we’re highlighting yet another fabulous park in San Antonio. Hardberger Dog Park opened in 2010 and quickly became a favorite among the local dog-lover crowd. The City of San Antonio did an excellent job creating this park and we hope our photos illustrate the fabulous mix of function and design. And without further ado…Hardberger Dog Park! […]

What?! It’s Monday already?! Say it ain’t so. Our weekend buzzed by and we didn’t come close to crossing off all the items on our to-do list. Sigh…there’s always next weekend. In our defense, it’s hard to stay indoors when the weather is beautiful and there are a plethora of parks to choose from. So, […]

Happy Saturday! We hope your weekend is off to a great start. Things are a bit somber around our house. If you missed what happened with Gus, you can catch up here. His back is still causing him discomfort and we’re following our vet’s orders to keep him as calm and still as possible. He […]

According to Gus, park is his favorite word to hear on Saturday and Sunday mornings. The routine is always the same: wake up, go do it, eat breakfast, watch his parents wash the dishes and then head to the PARK! Gus wants everyone to know the stomping and whining fits he throws while he’s waiting […]

According to Gus, dining along the San Antonio River Walk is a fabulous way to spend an afternoon. Waxy O’Connor’s is one of our favorite places to dine in San Antonio. Why, you ask? Their outdoor patio is dog-friendly! It’s the perfect spot to stop for lunch or an ice-cold beer. While working on our post […]
