Last weekend, we packed the car and headed down to Austin for the weekend to cheer on our Horns. It was the first time we had been to Austin as a family of 4 and we were so excited!
When we were almost to Georgetown, I realized I left the tickets at home! Oh my golly! Thankfully Maw-Maw saved us and was able to help. We stopped at will call at the stadium and they were able to get us our tickets. Thank goodness!!! Thank you Maw-Maw!!!
After we got our tickets, we headed to our favorite burger place- SHAKE SHACK!! They just opened one in Austin and we were hungry and ready to eat!
After we ate, we headed to the Co-op!!! The boys each picked out one thing they wanted. Charlie a Longhorn slap bracelet and Luke chose a stuffed Bevo.
Charlie Austin loves Austin!
Go Horns! Beat Cal!
We then went back to the hotel and rested up for a few minutes and the big boys headed to the game! Charlie was so excited. I was excited to just hang with just Lukie for the night too. I forgot how easy things are with just one child. :)
Before walking to the stadium
Charlie was so proud to give him his ticket.
Waiting for the band
Go Horns!
So, at this point I don't even think the first quarter was over yet and Charlie was done taking pictures and was hungry! All he wanted was nachos!
He instantly perked up when he got his nachos and saw Nana and Papa!
Then after halftime he saw Pops!
Hook'em!
Before he left he experienced Amy's ice cream for the first time. He told me this was his favorite moment from the game!
Walking back to the car- Charlie was exhausted and poor Justin had to carry him across campus to the car.
We had read a lot of Texas books getting him ready for the game. He talked all week about seeing the tower lit up orange after the Horns win. He was really sad to not see it lit up orange. Us too Charlie!
The next morning we had breakfast at our hotel- with Bevo! :)
And then headed down to Lady Bird Lake to run and burn out their energy before the car ride home!
We had the best weekend in Austin and can't wait to take the boys back again!!
