Getting ready to ride the Zilker Zephyr Train!


Allie and the boys came to play for a few days at our house while Bryan worked in Austin. We hooked up with Cortney and Kate as it is so fun to watch 3 - 3 year olds take over parks and restaurants. With the addition of their younger siblings it was even more fun! We did many Austiny activities including: Zilker Park & Train, Nutty Brown Cafe, Bluebonnet Pics, Hey Cupcake, & Wimberley Butterfly Festival. It was wonderful to have them here. Already planning their trip in the Fall!

Afternoon with Miss Kate



Waiting for the play to begin


Trying to look like mom who always wears her sunglasses on her head
Miss A and I met up with Cortney and Kate at Central Market for lunch and playground fun before going to the Scottish Rite Theater to watch the play "Alice in Wonderland". It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon and it was great to get our girlies together and catch up ~ we can't believe they are almost 4!
