We finally made our first trip back to Austin with Sierra! It had been awhile- our last trip to Austin was for the first football game when Chrissy was about 8 months pregnant! We really went up to visit with the family- Uncle Travis and Aunt Ashley were meeting Doug & Cindi to look for rehearsal dinner venues. We all got together with Ashley's family for drinks at their wedding location, Green Pastures, which was really beautiful! We can't wait for the big day! It's hard to imagine my litte bro is getting married- and that our little girl will be just 1 week shy of her first birthday at their wedding! This makes me feel old, so I had to share an old pic of us as kids...
The Fam in NYC in 1989 
The weather was gorgeous on Sunday, so we opted for a walk around the capital building- something Chrissy has never managed to do in all her years in Austin.
Good exercise for Mama 
We found the statue honoring the Texas Pioneer Women and I couldn't resist. Also, a good pic of that wrap I've been talking about.
And before we could leave Austin, we had to make a stop by the now famous Round Rock Donuts for their 2 lb special. In addition to being stupidly huge (Sierra could float the river with this thing), it was also very yummy. Sierra was excited too:
