maybe head down to San Antonio? They have sea world for the kids and plenty of good food and drinks for the adults.
My family and friends we all had a good time when we went. Some of the hotel are "haunted" and that can be fun for the kids depending.

Turner Falls Oklahoma is not too far or expensive and is very cool.

I like Lake Greeson in Arkansas, about 4 hours from the Rockwall area. I have been taking my son every spring since he was 8. Great Corp of Engineers Camp grounds plus they have the diamond mine. I think they even have a pool depending on the age of your kiddos.

Wimberley is great. It doesn't get much better than cooling off in The Blue Hole.

Turner Falls Oklahoma is not too far or expensive and is very cool. One of my fondest childhood memories of a weekend getaway.
