Austin Vacation

We had a great four days in Austin this past week. Tyson got some much needed time off from work and stresses, and I got some much needed time away from the monotony of home. We got to see both of our families and spent some quality time with them. The four days consisted of nothing but food, fun, laughter, tennis, and golf!

Thursday, Tyson got to spend quality time with his dad, as I spent quality time with just my mom. Later that day, I had a home cooked dinner with my mom, stepdad, my two sisters, and my brother-in-law. IT WAS SUCH A FUN NIGHT! It brought back old times when I used to have visitations in Austin with my mom. Definitely A LOT of laughter, joking, and serious/intellectual conversations............the way it always used to be. I miss it.Overall, Tyson and I had a lot of fun and didn't want to leave.

Here are a few pictures from our little trip to Austin. I wish I could have gotten more action shots of everything (ie: playing tennis and golf), but silly me always forgot my camera!

Austin

Tyson and I are heading off on a week long trip to Austin......sort of......more like a Monday through Friday trip. We can't wait!!! We both SO desperately need a change of scenery. With every day life stresses, it's good that we're just leaving town and getting away for a bit. I know Tyson's definitely looking forward to it. We both want to see our families. I know I'm going a little nutty and just want to GET OUT!

Austin has always been a second home to me. As a lot of you know, my parents are divorced, so I had visitations with my mom. I would go to Austin almost once a month, spend every other holiday there, and spend half a summer there. It's a BEAUTIFUL city and it's so healthy and active....JUST LIKE ME! I miss jet skiing and taking boat rides on the lake, eating out in downtown Austin, the Austin city nights, the geography! Tyson and I both wish SO badly that we could move there , but our lives right now don't give us that option. I just started a new job, and Tyson really can't up and leave Humble PD.

Anyways! I just wanted everyone to know that we're headed off to Austin and hopefully I will be able to have a nice blog about our trip.

Austin, here we come!
