Sorry for the absence of posts this last week. My best friend came into town with her two girls and we have been busy! We went to Zilker park on Monday and played at the playground, rode the train that goes around the park, and had snow cones. Then we had dinner one of my favorite kid friendly playground restaurants, Phill’s Ice House. The kids played while we ate and talked.

Tuesday was filled with a morning trip to Whole Foods for breakfast, a visit with my friends friend and her triplet 9 month old girls, an afternoon at the local bounce house, and slime making (just pour white glue in a cup and slowly stir in liquid starch a bit at a time until it gets thick a slime like, then color with food coloring). Wednesday we took a day trip to my hometown of Wimberley to swim in the river and have a picnic lunch. For dinner we stopped by my number one go to restaurant with a playground (Doc’s Backyard) and after playing for about an hour, Madeline then proceeded to slip on the picnic table a bust her eye. Luckily there was no cut, but her eye turned black and swelled immediately. Poor baby! 🙁

Anyway, my friend and her girls left this morning and we are back to our normal routine, so hopefully I will find the time to show you some of the yummy food I made this week (white chocolate, nutmeg, and cinnamon popcorn and potato, bacon, and corn chowder anyone?)
