Labor Day 2013- Austin

Over the Labor Day weekend, we went on our annual trip with Jeff's family. This year our destination was Austin!

We left after lunch on Thursday and drove to the Lakeway Inn in Austin. The hotel had a huge pool with a slide. It was the perfect way to spend the afternoon.

Then we went to dinner at the resort. The kids were all so happy to be 're-united'. Jade's sister, brother-in-law and their sons joined us.

 The next day we loaded up on a 'party barge' on Lake Travis. The water was low, but that didn't keep us from having fun. We swam, jumped off the boat, and then toured the lake.

After the boat, we loaded up and drove to Acme Ranch. I loved this house. So much to do and such a beautiful setting.

We spent the rest of the weekend swimming, eating, drinking, playing games and enjoying family time. We went on hikes, a run, shot guns, and soaked in the great outdoors.

One afternoon, we visited Dan's friend Mickey Redwine. Mickey has a two acre 'natural pool'. It is hard to even capture how amazing this man-made pool is on film.

It was an amazing vacation. Family is such a blessing.
