Labor Day Weekend

After a somewhat stressful week of moving into our temporary home and all the other little meetings that make life seem so crazy, we were ready for a mini vacation. Thanks to Andrew's work, we were able to get tickets to the Round Rock Express game (our minor league baseball team) on Saturday evening. It started raining right as we got there, so we didn't get to jump in the bouncy house, but we still had a great time!

We ate cotton candy...
And said hello to Spike - the Express mascot.
This was the first time Lincoln was brave enough to get close to him - he gave him a big hug and both he and Peter gave him high fives (Peter had no fear at all, just a huge grin on his face!)

Then on Monday, we decided to take the kids down to San Antonio to see the temple. We got lucky in that they were watering the plants when we arrived, so they let us walk around the grounds for awhile - otherwise the gates would have been locked and we would have had to make do with the a viewing from afar.

After our visit to the temple, we went by Chick-Fil-A for a free lunch (for wearing our sports logo shirts) and made a few scenic stops on the way back to Austin. In fact, by the time we got back to Austin, it was time for dinner so we stopped at Chick-Fil-A again for another free meal! You've gotta love that place!

All in all, a fun, refreshing weekend that left us ready for another busy week!
