overnight field trip

Last week 4th grade traveled to San Antonio and Austin to see a bit of Texas history firsthand. Overall it was a great trip. Below is just a small glimpse of it all.

Our whole group in front of the Alamo.
Sadly, we couldn't take any pictures inside.


Wandering the grounds at the San Jose Mission.
The kids really liked the pretending to be officers inside the gift shop.
I think every kid wanted a picture, as did a couple of the teachers.





Bus ride heading to the hotel.
Hotel Valencia was super fancy. Each of those glass balls had a signature from someone who stayed there, including Tracy McGrady, Paula Abdul, Jennifer Lopez, and the Jonas Brothers.
We split off in our smaller groups and had dinner on the riverwalk
Our girls chose Rainforest Cafe, even though they got scared a couple of times.


We went to the Bob Bullock Museum in Austin.






We also went to the Capitol and Visitor's Center. It was a great and jam packed trip. We got back to the school late Monday night exhausted! A success indeed!
