Weekend Warriors

Last weekend we made a quick, impromptu trip to Austin. I got an email form our friend Stephanie seeing if we would like to come down to celebrate Mykle's birthday. She knew we were willing and ready to travel on late notice.  So we did just that.  

Finn pulled a sneak move while we were loading. I thougth it was funny that his first step was check the mirror.   I am sure he learned that from me, but as you notice he is looking at himself...perhaps to see if he has anything in his teeth...or at least that is what I do.

Once in Austin we went to the Round Rock Art Walk...

The kids got to buy a square to color with chalk...

   

It was hot! I mean real hot.  We got some food from the vendors, looked at a few craft booths, and listened to a kid's musician perform.

Stephanie and I bought matching necklaces from a man called "Rattlesnake"...

Finn has started doing "web shooters."  Dad told him that they are also rock and roll fingers.   So while driving he did the "web shooters" and said "can we listen to ringworm?"

For those not familiar with Ringworm, it is a metal band. We don't know them either. When Finn was little he heard a metal song and loved it. We googled it to find out that it was Ringworm.  

 Saturday night we got to meet our friends' friends.  They were all so much fun and so cool to hang out with.  It was a great birthday party and Finn had several new friends to play with. 

A quick stop into Ikea...

 A sofa that makes me daydream day and night of New York...

  Finn loved getting to ride around on his scooter...

 Finn and our friends' dog, Lucy.  

 

 We had such a great time.  We wish we could have stayed longer.   We hope to go back soon and spend more time with our friends and all of our friends we didn't get the chance to meet up with this time.

And a drive back home...

Thanks for a great weekend Mykle, Stephanie, and Dylan.
