Supplies!

Big day today, picked up two of the grandkids (ages 5 and 7), and went to the Habitat for Humanity Re-store to look for french doors. There were none. Habitat has opened 3 stores in San Antonio, all a long distance from each other. We will drive 40 miles to the other side of town to check the other store, another day. It was time to eat and since were were in downtown San Antonio, what better place than Mi Tierra! My little grand daughter just loved it,she thought the ceilings were so beautiful with the pinatas, the papel picado,
everything all shiny and golden, strung with little lights. She said, "it's like a party grandma!















We indulged in a beef taco, refried beans, rice, fluffy hot tortillas, huevos rancheros plus porkchop; steak and eggs, and hamburger and fries. A last artery hardener for grandma and grandpa before we embark on a healthier eating style.

We were celebrating the X-man's birthday (now 7 yrs old), so of course we had a quick Alamo tour and views of the San Antonio riverwalk.

















Then, with our tummies full, it was off to buy supplies for bento boxes.

After much deliberation and a poor selection of lock and lock boxes, here is what we came up with...
















So, it was time to take the tired kiddos all the way back to Boerne. We are still doing arts and crafts in the kitchen as I write this. I guess tomorrow I will have to get busy figuring out what to put in the boxes for lunch on Monday.
