Happy 10th birthday Will!!

Full of Thanks!

As always, an amazing Thanksgiving week!

I am thankful for...an amazing piece of land that we can escape to at anytime and 8 days off to enjoy it this time.  My children actually getting along this break more than they fought.  A lake that does not look empty.  Nature walks and  our visitors.  A new fire escape to the tree house.  Hunters and the free meat (well, probably not free at all once you tally up the cost of a stand, corn, game cams, ammo, hunting licences, processing fee, mounting fee, new deep freeze, etc.)  

6 going on 16!

Happy Birthday to the sweetest girl that changed our entire world!

Keeping Austin Weird....A Merry Minion Christmas

Our 2nd Annual tree decorating fiesta on the side of HWY 360 with the cousins.  We were actually prepared this year...minions, beer, hot chocolate, music, step stools, and dads to do most of the work. 

Quick Road Trip

A last minute road trip to Bryan-College Station to cheer on the Rockdale Tigers and the Lake Travis Cavaliers ended with a tour of  Santa's Wonderland.  The hour wait to park, hour wait to get tickets, and hour plus to get on the hay ride almost was worth it!  The millions of lights were gorgeous but we were exhausted.  Maybe DON'T visit on a Saturday night?!?
