4th of July Trip

We took a trip to Austin for 4th of July. We left on Thursday the 3rd and came back Sunday the 6th. We went to visit Russell's mom, Aunt Joyce, DeAnn, Tracy, Gary and Jamie. The kids had fun. One of their favorite things to do is walk down to the golf course by Mimi's house and see the deer. Deer are all over the golf course at dawn and in the late afternoon. On Friday, July 4th, we took the kids to New Braunfels to meet up with the Servati's to go tubing down the river. The kids had a BLAST!! The river was beautiful! It is a spring fed river so the water was clean and clear! We got to the river around 10:30 am and floated for a couple of hours. We had a Bar-B-Q lunch with the Servati's afterwards. I didn't get any pictures of us on the river because I was worried about ruining my camera. But I did get pictures of the kids in the car on our way home. Sammy was so tired that she fell asleep with a little rubber duck in her mouth.Lauren was so tired that she fell asleep while digging through the snack bag.
That night we watched fireworks from our camp grounds by Marble Falls Lake. It was a great fireworks show...the kids loved it!

On saturday night, Mimi's neighborhood had their own fireworks show by the lake. We sat in the boat on the lake to watch the show. It was the best and longest fireworks show I had ever seen!
