Austin Aquarium

My Mom had brought tickets to take the kiddos to see the new Austin Aquarium in January when she was watching the kiddos while Mike and I went to San Fran. They didn't end up going due to Kate being sick so we decided to go Friday afternoon of Spring Break while she was here.  It was crowded and dark, but the kiddos seemed to have a good time.

Austin Zoo

My Mom came into town on Wednesday so on Thursday, my Mom, Cassie and I took the kiddos to the Austin Zoo.  It was a beautiful day and we had lots of fun!

Spring Break Train Ride

On Tuesday of Spring Break, Cassie and I took the kiddos on a Austin Steam Train ride, from Bertram to Burnet.  It was about an hour on the train and then time in Burnet for a picnic lunch and to watch a Western Shoot out.

 The kids really enjoyed the train ride and somehow we all got sunburn?

Alex's 1/2 birthday

Gram took Alex out for donuts for his 1/2 birthday!

alex wanted Peter Pan cupcakes, I tired!

I can't believe my baby is 3 1/2!!  We celebrated by having a taco dinner with Aunt Kristin, Uncle Blake, Aunt Jes, Uncle Brian and cousin Aberlee.  He loved the Peter Pan cupcakes I tried to make!  He is still super sweet, always telling us he loves us and giving kisses!
