SUNDAY – Treking to the beach
Breakfast: The hubby and I hit up the hotel breakfast Sunday morning
- Instant Quaker Apple Cinnamon Oats
- 1/2 cup raisin bran w/ skim milk
- coffee with 1 creamer
After breakfast we headed to the other hotel where the hubby’s family was staying to meet up with them for our trip to the beach. Part of the hubby’s family lives out in Missouri and doesn’t see much of the beach, so on this vacation, they really wanted to get a trip in to the beach – no complaints here.
So, we drove about 2.5 hours south to Corpus Christi and then over to Padre Island for the day.
Snack: Twix candy bar – I had 1.5 sticks and gave 1/2 to the hubby – I’m such a good wife!
I only got a few photos at the beach, but we hung out on the sand, played in the water, jumped over the waves, got some sun and then called it a day and drove back to San Antonio for 2.5 hours.

Trucks parked right next to the water
The sand was pretty tricky out here and several trucks got stuck while we were out here.
On the way home we delved into the snack stash since we didn’t have a formal lunch planned.
Lunch: 1/2 Odawalla Chocolate Chip Peanut Bar (my favorite flavor!!) – the other 1/2 went to the hubby + TJ’s trail mix: cranberries, almonds and cashews – I can’t tell you how glad I am I brought the trail mix with me

Dinner: Longhorn Steakhouse was on the menu Sunday evening – we were given a gift card and used it for our meal
Appetizer – The table shared the Texas Tonion and I had about 2 pcs of bread waiting on my meal to arrive – I was starving y’all!!
Main course – Salmon Salad – bourbon-marinated salmon over salad greens with a little balsamic dressing on the side – so delicious – the salmon was cooked perfectly!!
I also had a glass of Ecco Domani Pinot Grigio
And looking back at my photos, looks like my it was so good that I wolfed it down before capturing any photos of dinner – not sure what happened there.
Dessert – ice cream sandwich purchased at the hotel – it was so yummy!! The stats weren’t too horrible on this, well except for the HFCS – yikes!
Old School Good
After dinner, the hubby and I watched a little TV and crashed out! Another great day under our belts.
