Relaxation in the ATX

We've been pretty busy for the past month and felt like a mini get-a-way was in order.  We met my parents in Austin and stayed with some family there.  We love going to Austin, and we always come home feeling relaxed and  refreshed.  This trip was no different.  We went wine tasting Saturday morning and Grayson got more time to hang out with one of his birthday buddies!

Grayson was so interested in having another kid around and just kept staring at him, it was super cute.  The wine here was not great, but we like to go there anyways because it is so pretty.  It provided a good photo op for the whole crew. 

We went to another winery and had a picnic lunch that my mom's cousin provided for us with cheese, crackers, and sausage.  After that, we drove over to the town of Wimberly and walked around the cute little shops for a bit.  When we were tired of the heat, we headed back to the house for some pool time.

 Grayson's first pool experience went really well.  I was afraid that since the water was a little cold for me, that he would be pretty fussy.  This was not the case at all!   He seemed to have a good time, and started splashing by the end. 

That night, we had a fantastic dinner where we got to sit out on the porch over looking a little stream.  The weather was perfect and my fancy mac and cheese was delish.  We took it easy for the rest of the night.  On Sunday, we went to the Oasis on Lake Travis and ate at the bar-b-que place out there.  We sat on the patio here, too.  We could not have asked for better weather this weekend!
