Anniversary Celebration and Anguiano Family Reunion

We celebrated our 3yr anniversary this year by going to San Antonio for 3 days. Technically our anniversary date was May 27th, but I was till in school so we just celebrated June 6th- June 9th. Spencer's mom watched Tarren for us so we could have some alone time. We dropped him off on Saturday evening and headed to San Antonio. I reserved a hotel and had already paid for it online. When we got to our hotel at midnight, we found out that they had double booked our room and had already given it away. All they had left was a room with two standard beds. We had booked a king size. They agreed to call one of their sister hotels and see if they had any available. They said they did and so we were off to another hotel about 6 miles away from where we originally wanted to stay. When we got to that hotel, they checked us in and we went to find our room. Thank goodness we didn't unpack yet because it had 2 double beds in it. Spencer went back to the office and the worker called another hotel to see if they had it. They said they did and so we were off to another hotel that was probably 6 more miles from this hotel. So, we were getting further and further from downtown where we wanted to be. It was starting to get quite frustrating. We got to the last hotel and it was finally a king. I guess we could have pushed the beds together, but I really didn't want to roll over and feel the crack of the bed. I just don't see what is the point of making a reservation if when you get there it isn't there anymore. Anyways, the third hotel ended up being nicer than the original so it work out in that way. We had a blast while we were there. We went and played tennis, swam in the pool, went to the movies and saw TAKEN, and we went to fiesta texas six flags. I realized that my stomach has gotten much weaker since I have gotten older. There were quite a few times I thought I was going to lose my breakfast. We got our caricature done and it turned out pretty good. We try and get one done every anniversary.




We played the arcade at the movies.


REUNION

We had reunion on June 12th-14th. We went to Pearland on Friday and we played paintball. It was pretty hot, but it was lots of fun. Spencer and I went one on one and he kicked my butt. He shot me twice in the back, but I got him 3 times in the arm. It was pretty painful. I have some pretty good size bruises to show for it. After paintball, we went to pick up Tarren at puttputt. He was with Spencer's mom.


We went to stay at Heath's, Spencer's brother, in Lake Jackson. On Saturday, everyone came to Lake Jackson and we went to this awesome rec center. It had a sweet water slide and lots of little water toys for kids. After that, we went and had brisket, chicken, ribs and pork that Heath smoked at a park. It was sooooo good!!! Tarren had a blast on the swings and with all of his cousins. There were five babies that were between the ages of 16 months and 1 yr.

Carrigan, who was born on the same day as Tarren, was trying to push Tarren around. It was so cute. Then on Sunday, she was going around giving kisses. She gave one to Tarren and then would walk away and come back to give him another one. WAY CUTE!!!

It was an exciting weekend! We had lots of fun! Next year it will be our turn to be in charge of reunion. It should be interesting.
