Discovering...

I was getting all the pics off my camera and discovered a few I had forgotten about. These are at a park we went to for the first time.

I remember this being a very windy day but, it was also a nice spring day!!

Ryan, Madalyn & Ethan each took turns sliding. The kids thought it was great that Daddy got on the slide too.

Then, Ryan showed the kids these horn looking things. We soon discovered you could talk to each other from opposite ends of the playground. It was pretty cool.

I think this was the highlight of this playground.

We will have to visit this one again.

Valentines Day Fun!!

We started off our Valentines Day fun with a trip to the famous "Round Rock Donuts" for breakfast. We had heard this was the best place in town to get donuts. So we gave it a try and were disappointed. I guess I'm a little partial to "Shipley's Donuts" or "Shippy's" as my nephew use to call it. After we had our donuts we drove to Cedar Park to have some fun at Lakeline Mall.

We were a little disappointed that they didn't have a play area inside for the kids. We did however, find the Disney store and they were having a great sale. I bought a few things and the kids got to pick out a couple of things for themselves. Madalyn picked gold princess gloves and a little box in the shape of a crown with 7 rings inside. Ethan picked out a couple of toys from "Meet the Robinsons" and a little stuffed Bear from "The Jungle Book". We then made a lap around the mall and decided to go find a park. We ended up going back to Round Rock to Old Settlers Park. The kids had lots of fun with Mommy & Daddy.

It was soon time to leave and go find a late lunch. I had already planned on going to Red Robin and new how to get to it. We had to go to Pfluegerville just a few miles away. Ryan had the "Guacamole Bacon Burger" with bottomless fries and a "Very Berry Raspberry Limeade". I had the "Burger Parmigiana"with bottomless fries and a "Freckled Lemonade". The kids split a cheese pizza. They also ate nearly all of the strawberries out of my drink. We really like eating here when we get the chance. Although after we left Ryan and I wished we had split a burger instead of each getting one. We were STUFFED!!

The rest of the evening we enjoyed at home watching movies and eating popcorn.

Playground Fun

We stayed in Round Rock with Ryan for a few days. Ryan & I took the kids to the park next door everyday. The kids were so excited to have a playground next door to our apartment. This was Jan 1, 2008
