Our good friends Laura and Daniel visited us last week. We all had a GREAT time! We did "Ken's tour of Austin," which included the capital, Mt. Bonnell, and the 360 bridge. I think they were particularly impressed by the 18lb custom Texas door hinges 'specially made for the capital building (which is taller than the U.S. capital building in DC!).
We also visited Bastrop and Smithville (Home of Hope Floats), just down the road from Bastrop. We ate yummy food, watched good movies, chatted, drank good wine and just enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing weekend. Laura also helped me redecorate and move furniture around (thanks Laura- the table is still tilted!).
In other news, we're starting to prepare for our Europe trip. We'll spend 2 days in Paris, and then 3 days in London. Ken leaves April 17th and will be there for a couple of days with his best bud, Todd. Then, I'll leave April 19 and join them for a day. Todd flies back to the states Monday and Ken and I'll be on our own in the city of love. We can't wait!
Today, we replaced a section of fence in the front of the house. We had a little stray dog find her way into our yard. Not that we don't love dogs, but we'd like to make sure only ours get into the backyard and stay there!
I'd write more, but I'm beat!
