October 13-16th

Well, what a great mid week, short weekend trip to Austin first then Alice, Tx! Jeff had meetings in Austin with clients on Thursday/Friday so his two sidekicks joined along for the ride of course!
We stayed with Grandma and Grandpa in Austin while Jeff worked and visited with Grandma and Grandpa and Jackson of course had plenty of time playing with Grandma on Thursday morning while I went and had my hair done ( of course)! Have to take advantage of my time when I can! Thursday evening we were invited to go and watch my nephew Austin perform to claim his first "white" belt! It was so exciting and his brother and cousin were both there of course to support him! He did GREAT!
Friday we had lunch with Grandma at work and then picked Jeff up and headed out to Alice to see Mimi and Papaw. Bonus was we were able to see Brad and Stacy and Dalyn (Jeff's brother and his family)! Jackson thoroughly enjoyed this visit as well as Jeff's parents have a farm just outside of Alice in Agua Dulce. There are horses, donkeys, alpaca's, llamas, and cows AND they're all miniature!! Get ready to be bombarded with PLENTY of pictures taken throughout this visit! I have to play catch up since I haven't posted since last Monday!
One last important note, Jeff's mom was recently diagnosed with cancer in June and is now treating this cancer with chemo. She still looks wonderful and her spirits are strong, she is ready to fight this and I know she will! We love our Mimi and know that God's will will pan out for her, she has many many people praying for her daily. It reminds me of my favorite verse:
Phillipians 4:13
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

Here are the mass of pictures captured on this fun trip!
