Austin Recap (finally).

Meagan did a timely recap of our Austin trip here, but I am a slacker and just now getting to it . . . almost 2 weeks later. We had a great weekend of eating, lounging by the pool, and seeing our friends' babies.

We stayed at Barton Creek and the grounds there are gorgeous.




We've stayed there several times and every time we are there, Justin takes pictures of these houses. Maybe one day . . .

Notice the little putt-putt course in the bottom left corner. We played about 2 holes, got tired of being terrible, and played a winner-take-all final putt-off. Justin and Meagan tied for first, I got second, and well Jeremy got last.

Where we hung out for most of the day on Saturday . . . the pool!


I have no idea what he was doing:


Meagan and I were talking by the side of the pool the night we got there, and all of a sudden we see this sight. Amazing.


Good picture of Meagan and Jeremy (our culinary experts for the weekend). Clearly, this picture was taken after the day at the pool.


Now on to the cute babies . . .

It was so nice to catch up with Zach and Carrie and getting to see Porter. He is so cute!

The next day, we got to see another sweet baby, Ruby. She is just precious. It had been way too long since we had seen David and Emilia, and it was great visiting with them (and Ruby)!

Our trip to Austin was wonderful. We had a great weekend -- it was so nice to get away and forget about work for a couple of days!
