Austin, Texas

OMG, why did I wait 3 years to experience the bliss of Barton Springs? Last week I decided that we needed to experience more Texas. I woke up and asked my Facebook friends if I was crazy to go to Barton Springs alone with my kids. Many of them said "Oh, hell yes!" but AwesomeAllison said "Whatevs...I'll meet you there. We LOVE BS!" And now we do, too. Ahhhh...the fresh water (although there was A LOT of algae) felt sooo good.

Vinny loved the algae.

Later, we decided to hit up another Austin hotspot for a yummy lunch and treat. First it was delicious shrimp cones at The Mighty Cone trailer then over to Hey Cupcake! for a treat. The girls have always wanted to visit the beautiful silver Airstream with a giant pink cupcake on it's roof. We are sad to report that the cupcakes were just ordinary :( But we had a great day :))

It was a fantastic day indeed. Flippin' hotter than a mother though!
Does Vinny's toilette bath not get a shout out too! I think it ranks between the cones and cupcakes as far as awesome factor goes. Just sayin.
