One of our good friends from law school, who has since moved to Georgia, was in Austin last weekend with his new fiancée. So we clearly had to make the trip down to see them.
We met up for a fun lunch at Shady Grove.
Complete with some mid-day drinks. How is it that I have never had a frozen sangria before?!
Ava also made the trip with us...much to the delight of my family.
Ava absolutely loves hanging out at her Bunny and Nello's house.
She gets to swing...
Swim...
Play with sweet puppy dogs (who actually let her pet them)...
Eat lots of yummy food (while being the center of attention)...

Spend lots of time outside...
And, of course, hang out with her Bunny and Nello...
Ava also got in lots of quality time with (some of) her aunts over the weekend.
(I am so in love with Ava's curls...they kill me. And they are even more pronounced in Austin due to the lovely humidity.)
In addition to our fun lunch with Q, Josh and I also got to meet up with the Arnolds for dinner on Saturday night. We decided to try Moonshine, which didn't disappoint.
It was such a fun night. I'm still in total denial that they don't live in Dallas anymore.
Before heading back on Sunday, we made a stop to see Mimi. I promise that, despite the lack of a smile, Ava was glad to see her...she was just ready for a nap.
After a quick visit, it was time to hit the road.
And on the way back home, we decided to stop in West for gas and kolaches. After the recent tragedy, we thought it only appropriate for our gas money to go to a city in need. Apparently we weren't the only ones who felt this way, because the Czech Stop was packed! We opted to go next door instead.
But Ava couldn't tell the difference. She acted as though the strawberry cream cheese kolache was the best thing she had ever tasted. And I don't blame her. It was delicious.
And so ended our weekend adventure. Until next time, Austin.
