Austin Staycation!


Two weekends ago Josh and I went on a mini staycation to Austin! We had tried to several months ago and it didn't work out. Cha Cha, Josh's mom, came in town to watch Lila for us. Not only did she take care of Lila (and the more challenging counterpart, Cooper), she brought us new furniture! Pics of the couches coming soon.

On this weekend we decided to eat, shop and eat! Right when we got there, we headed to one of our favorites, Matt's. Josh was really excited to pose for this picture!

Saturday we went to brunch at the Iron Cactus and walked around 6th street. They were having the Urban Race that weekend, so we got to see some hilarious costumes!! My favorite were the bad wedding dress team:)


After lunch, we went to have a couples massage and then laid by the pool at our hotel. It was FABULOUS! After napping, yes napping folks, we got ready for dinner. We went to Eddie V's on 5th st. So yummy!

We laughed as we walked down 6th street after, how old we have gotten. We went straight back to the hotel after dinner and didn't even attempt the crowds:) The point of the weekend was to rest and relax after all.

On Sunday we stopped in Round rock at the outlets to shop. We found way too much stuff! While we waited for the stores to open, we had a good time on the kiddie rides!


After hitting our limit, (money and time) we headed back home to our precious Lila. She was having so much fun with Cha Cha that she didn't even really care that we came back.


This is the best photo I could get of the girl b/f Cha Cha left. Gwen, thank you so much for taking such good care of Lila so we could go enjoy ourselves for the weekend! We had a great time!!
