Hill County & Halloween

 

This past weekend we headed back down to the Texas Hill Country for a trip to Fredericksburg.  Stephanie's friend Katherine, from nursing school, was getting married so we sped down 281 again to get there in time to catch game seven of the World Series.  I probably should have just coasted in and enjoyed the ride but I tortured myself.  Anyways, I won't write all about the Rangers but it was rough coming so close.

We managed to have a good time even though I had a sour attitude to start the weekend with.  My mom, Jane, accompanied us to help watch Abby during the wedding and to enjoy the sights.  We visited the wildflower farm outside of town and then spent a few hours in town before the wedding.  We really enjoy the area and the weather was great last weekend.

We had a great time at the wedding and it was good to get to catch up with friends for a bit.

The weekend wasn't over when we got home either.  Our church was having a fall festival and we made it back in time to bring our big girl to it.  Abby was a ladybug this year and she did great in that stuffy costume.  We had the most fun watching her response to all of the animals at the petting zoo.

All in all, it was a great weekend despite the sports disasters (Tech got trounced too).  We got Abby all cleaned up Sunday night and ready for another week.  Our big girl is eight months old and doing great.
