Austin Staycation!

Very late post.

The week after Christmas Paul had off and we decided to have a little vacation in the Austin area.  We grilled outside a lot, took the kids to tons of parks, went to San Antonio for the day, took Charlie to ride his new bicycle, and took the kids to the movies!  It was Kate's first movie at the cinema and she did great.

Pictures of what we hope to be our annual Austin staycation!

Charlie on his new big boy bike.  Since we live on a very steep hill, we have to put the bike in the car and take him where it is flat to ride his bike.


At Kate's first theatre experience!  She loved it.  Popcorn definitely helped keep her occupied.  She loved it though.


Charlie is an old pro now.  Even though it was a princess movie, he still enjoyed it.  He was very excited to see previews for a new Cars movie and Kung Fu Panda II.

Our visit to San Antonio was awesome.  We went to the children's museum which was so wonderful.  They had a plane and control tower area with real plane seats in it and pilot caps for the kids to play with.  The whole basement of the museum was a grocery store, complete with little carts, aisles of food, and a checkout area with registers.  Charlie and Kate loved it.  Then we enjoyed lunch outside on the riverwalk in the 70 degree weather and a boat ride down the river.  Great day!

Kate was very picky with what food she decided to put in her cart
