Stadium Club at Texas Stadium.

Before the Cincinnati game last week we met up with The Stamps, Laura and Dan. First we did a little tailgating, then we moved on to the Stadium Club and finished in our seats and the suite. Think this will be our last game of the year....so it was fun to go all out. Fingers crossed our boys play a little better each week!

The last days in Texas

After Austin we returned back home and celebrated Micheal's birthday. Papa and cousin Mike joined us for steaks and some good home cooking...thanks to all the cooks! The Birthday Boy!!!

And the feast....

Soccer practice out in the sunshine...

One day we headed over to Kena and Philips to enjoy our last days of heat...Yes, heat in September....

Our Host with the most...

Our school of fish....

Peter, Mary and the girls joined us too. Can't find my camera card with their pictures....maybe later....

Thanks for coming to see us....we all had a great time!!!

Our little mermaid hanging by the hot tub....

Then there was Austin.....

On SWA again....headed to A-town!!

First night we strolled the 4th and Colorado area....Katherine and Rochelle joined us...

On the streets of downtown Austin...

Yummy Lunch at Katz's deli(yes I gained a solid 5lbs while on vacation)....ran into Bob and Judy here, small world.

A common theme and view of our two lovely guest...I bet they have the best tan in Germany at the moment!!!

Pool and Gym area on the 5th floor roof top. Yep, that's Caroline and Michael down below.

Views of Lake Austina and Congress bridge, from the 15th floor of the Amil on 2nd...

Dinner at Lambert's which was yummy! Les, Adrian, Andrew, Rochelle and Fresh joined the four of us....have you tried this place????

I have to say Michael won the dance contest.....he's got the moves for sure!

Fresh and I enjoying the Spazmatics.....
Of course we had so much fun we danced and danced and danced. If you ever get a chance to see this band...do! Their a cover band that plays all the 80's hits you know and love.

Then the worst happened....ran out of battery life in my camera so missed out on pictures Thursday.....Great time, you know I love me some Austin!

Off to Vegas we go!

After our stay in Lubbock we headed to Vegas for two days. Not so much to gamble but more for the pool and sunshine. We had a great time and ate a whole bunch...highly recommend BLT Burger in the Mirage....we hardly left the hotel except for our one night of exploring. I think Caroline and Michael got out more than us. And they both had a day of the stomach flu while we we're there.....so I think a part of them was ready for a change which we did on Tuesday....

Enjoy these from Vegas:

Hanging out at Lubbock International Airport...

Michael was 100% here and Caroline was not at all, but she was a trooper...

Arriving at Mirage...

And straight to the pool we went...

The first night we headed to the Hofbrauhaus for some German cuisine....and a few Oktoberfest beers....

Then we were off to sight see all the glitz and glamor...

Outside the Venetian...

Time for the water show at Bellagio.

Inside Caesar's Palace shopping area...

Day Two was all about the Pool Pool Pool.....

Bye Bye Mirage....Austin here we come!
