Back From Austin

G and I just got back from a trip to Austin to see these 2 cuties:
We had a great time! There was a trip to Ikea where someone made herself at home.
There was biscuit making.
There was swimming. It was over 100 degrees every day we were there (and many days before). One day it was 104!
There was smoothie drinking.
And loads of shopping!
Now we're home and so tired we feel like we're in a coma. These 2 and their parents are off to Tahoe tomorrow. Yes, a 3 and 6 year old kicked our rears! I think we're both off to bed early tonight. While we're glad to be home, I miss them already!

They are so much fun, but they do have about 10 times the energy we do. Treasure every memory. I know they will.

Those girls are so cute. I think they have eyes like yours. The Ikea photo is precious.

Hi..thanks so much for dropping in to my blog. Yes the lads are huge especially the ones closest to the wheels of the wagon. As big as they are they are just the nicest horses to be around.
Your girls are just adorable. I am a gramma to 2 girls also 11 and almost 13. Not sure how the time has flown by so quickly so enjoy these years. I am sure you have heard that comment before..lol

I sure wouldn't have wanted to leave those two adorable little girls, Jackie! I can see why you needed to come home and rest, though! Looks like you had a great trip!
