McKinney Falls State Park

Weekend

This past weekend we were in great need of vacation...so we played in Austin.
After the downtown Farmer's Market we went to the Botanical Gardens.

Then we went to the State History Museum, and saw the cows outside after an IMAX movie - Born to Be Wild, about elephants and orangatangs. Both kids loved it, the cows and the movie.

First Days of School

The Naomi girl started school last week....

A Kindergartener. She loves it. And we like it too. She is in a dual language class, so sits with native English speakers and native Spanish speakers, all learning to speak the same languages together.

And Micah started school today...

Big guy is a Dancing Bear, and he liked parts of it all right - like the painting part...

and the necessary bath after school...

But not so much the being dropped off and the beginning of group nap part. We'll be learning a few things.
