Austin

This is going to be a really long story, but here goes...
Most of you know that a couple of years ago Goose gave me a Cannon camera. I love it! It takes the most beautiful pictures, but sometimes it is just too much camera to tote around...especially if I have all three kids in tow. So for my birthday this year, he bought a cute little cannon PowerShot S95. The picture aren't near the quality, but it is perfect for a grab and go camera.  

Back in March I traveled to Austin for a work conference. I was there about 4 days. Goose and the kids moved in with Steve & Nancy so they could help him get the kids where they needed to be in the mornings...he has to be at work by 6:15a. 

This is horrible to say, but this is the first time that I have been to the capitol, where I was old enough to remember...It's is a sight!! Every detail thought of and I mean every detail...even the door knobs and hinges. If you haven't been...go. I was overwhelmed with pride to be a Texan.
On the front steps of the capitol...

Here is the view from the 15th floor...looking out my window.
There were 6 of us that made the trip, and it was easily decided that I had the best room with the best view...but I would have traded it all to be with my babies. This was the first time I have been away from all of them. I didn't care for the feeling...next conference I'm loading them up and taking them with me.

To my surprise when I pulled my "big" Cannon out to take a few pictures...I found some treasures that Goose had taken while I was gone.
Such a silly expression.
That's her ornery face.
When she is working on a project, very little distracts her...not even Daddy taking her picture.
This is the face I walked in to see...awe...she missed me too!
We had some Mommy/Syd time while the other two where at Cubbies (Awanas)
