More Travel!

A few weekends back we headed to Austin to celebrate Parker and Liam's 6th and 3rd Birthday.

The day of the party was my actual birthday. I had to sneak away from helping setting up the parties and headed to Kendra Scott and Super Target. My two favorites.

The kids parties were so much and wore the kids out! Lots of jumping and sliding.

And of course my BIG kid had to join in on the fun before all the kids showed up :)




It is so sweet to see the friendship between Laney and Parker. I hope they stay best friends forever. It is so fun to watch their love grow for each other. Some of my best friends were my cousins as well!

Landon worked super hard on a table he built for Tanner and Jodi. This was his first time dealing with concrete and it defintley had some learning curves. He seriously worked months on this table and I was so happy to see the final product. He built it just in time for the parties and got lots of good feedback from people. He now has a list of 5 or 6 people that want one. (But he has lots to build for me before he starts taking orders..lol. First up... a dresser for Kip, a huge farm house table, and I could go on and on).

We headed out early Sunday morning and took the kids to Sea World. It was super duper hot but we had a blast. (We will keep in mind to go in the Fall next time and not the dead heat of the summer).




That evening we stayed at a hotel we booked with Hotwire and scored Big Time!! We got a room 4 miles from Sea World, The Hyatt Hill Country Resort. We could have stayed there for days. The kids loved the water slide and went down it probably a good 50 times. We also enjoyed the lazy river, hammocks and smores by the fire pit.




Monday we woke up for one more day at Sea World.


We decided this time to buy tickets to "Dine with Shamu". It was so worth the money. They served us an all you can eat buffet and Shamu and his friends were out in the water doing tricks. The kids thought it was so cool. Our table was right up against the pool and we could see so good.



We made that an early day and headed home. So glad we had a fun weekend with family and time away with the kids.

Now happy to have a few weeks in town so that we can do a few updates around the house.
