Thunderstorm!

Took a few shots during a thunderstorm producing tornado warnings. The weirdest thing was that there was not a cloud in the sky until about 10 minutes before the storm. Joey and I as always find much joy out of rain!

Of course I had to take pictures of Trixy being so cute!

" SUPER-WEE!"

Patio Time

A few weeks ago I planted some flowers in pots for the patio. The dogs and I afterwards enjoyed sitting on the patio, Trixy of course had to try and eat every flower. :-)

HAHA

BOREDOM

More Pup Pics!!

Austin Quick Trip

The first picture is taken from the car with my phone, I tried to capture the blue bonnets that are in full bloom, but I failed. They are so pretty! 


Here is what they look like: 


Joey and I drifted off to Austin to bum around, nothing too exciting. I took Joey back to where Leah and I went a few weeks prior to Mt. Bonnell. You climb 99 stairs to this lookout, then you have spectacular views of Lake Austin and its surroundings, the only annoying thing is the million dollar homes with lake property and boat docks. We were so jealous! :-)

Joe don't fall!! We found a little spot where we could enjoy the view in private without others around, the only negative was how steep it was! 

So we lasted about 20 minutes, then we took off...

Joey walking down the 99 stairs to the car, then we headed off to dinner at Stubb's BBQ in downtown Austin. We just had to eat there since we have eaten Stubb's BBQ sauce for years at home, so we assumed that their food would be great and IT WAS! Here is a picture of the BBQ sauce, you may have seen it in the store: 

The food and dinner place was amazing. It was in a old Mormon settlement from the 1800s I believe. I had their brisket, one of my fav's and Joey had a pork tenderloin. Yummy. :-) We are excited at the thought of people maybe visiting us just because there is a LOT of great food places we could go! haha

 So after Stubb's BBQ , Joey and I headed North on the I-35 home but made a quick stop at a miniature golf place along the way: 

As always Joey BEAT me!!!! :-) hehe

Leah's Visit to TX

While Leah was here for a few days we made it down to San Antonio which is 2.5 hours south on the I-35 from Temple. The first slide show is from the famous Riverwalk, The Alamo, and a few other things in San Antonio.

San Antonio Zoo :

 Leah and I had a fun day in Austin. We went to the state capitol, Mt. Bonnell, and a few other places. :-)

So one of the nights we decided to team up and play Rock Band, I got a pic of us while playing and well...HAHA Sorry Leah and Joey but I just had to post this!

Afternoon at the Park

Joey and I have been taking the pooches to the park a couple of times a week to run around while we soak up some sun. We found a great park that is HUGE. We drive a few miles south to Belton to Heritage Park.

The dogs just LOVE running free around the park.

Of course I had to stretch my legs too!
