On July 22nd we left Austin and drove down to Corpus Christi. The kids were looking everywhere for “the ocean,” it was a thrill to finally catch some glimpses of water. Coming into the city was exciting. We quickly unloaded what we could into our super cute rental house, got into swimsuits and hit the sand.
Summer Vacation – Lily’s Potter Party
August 28th, 2018 by Aubri
For a few months I knew I wanted to throw Lily a Harry Potter 10th birthday party. Because we would be in Austin at my mom’s house a couple weeks before her birthday I thought it would be fun to rope her into the planning and partying. She and my nieces once again (remember her Lemony Snicket party last year?) went out of their ways to pull this off.

While we were in Texas Lily turned 10! TEN! We’re in the double digits now folks. And because whenever we’re in Texas for a birthday there are usually two parties. This one was her actual date of birth birthday, July 28th when we were at Grandma and Grandpa’s house.
Summer Vacation – Austin Part II – ShipWrecked
August 22nd, 2018 by Aubri
It’s just a fact, big time talent runs in our family. Huge talent. So it was not a surprise when these 3 girls scripted, designed costumes and staged an entire 3…or was 4 part production of a new theatrical hit titled Shipwrecked. Refreshments were served during intermission. Luckily for all of you we got the whole thing on video!
Now, sit back and please enjoy the show!
