We made another quick trip to Corpus Christi this weekend for a quinceanera (Jose’s cousin’s daughter, but they just call them all cousins). We decided to stay in a hotel this time, since the party will be at the hotel’s ballroom.
Ever since we went to San Antonio for spring break last March, the girls have been talking about how much fun it was to stay in a hotel. I think the novelty of staying somewhere different — somewhere that also wasn’t just Momo or Gima’s house — was a major hit in their eyes.
And thus this weekend has been highly anticipated! When we arrived last night, Emma said “best day ever.” And this morning when my mother-in-law checked in to the adjoining room, the fact that we could open a door between each room was met with absolute delight.
It’s a fun reminder — especially during this holiday season — that sometimes simple pleasures are the best ones of all.
p.s. I’m doing a 31 day blog writing challenge!
