Visit from Veronica

Shortly after we moved in Sarah's friend Veronica came for a visit. 

It was really nice to have someone here from back home. She was great and very helpful and it was great for the girls to have a chance to get together. They went back to Krause Springs and spent a day in Austin complete with a concert at Zilker Park-- a very eye opening experience for poor Sarah. She actually had someone ask, "Do you wanna get high?" She was polite and turned them down. It's hard for us to believe people can hang out in this weather. 
Veronica is welcome to come live with us anytime:)

Krause Springs

My view for FAR too long.
I wasn't feeling the whole moving thing while my kids were still out of school. Getting out of this maze was struggle every time I had to get out of bed. Peter was pretty patient about it. He felt like the best thing was for me to be with the kids anyway.

We checked out things to do in this miseably hot weather and Krause Springs looked like a good thing to try. It was a good move and everyone had a good time.

Took John FOREVER to jump the first time on the rope swing. Then he did it a few more times. He was so funny the way he would hit the water:)

A drawback to Texas is that anything you do outdoors in the summer has to involve water. 

John's a cutie.
