didn't want it to end

okay this weekend was incredible! i picked dana up friday and we made it to lin's around 7:30. didn't get into any traffic the way there, but i did make a wrong turn onto one of the roads near her house (surprise!). we went to eat at Razoo's, YUMMY!!!! and went back to the apartment to get cumphy and visit! is was so nice to be with both girls! like old times!! max the cat was fun too, he likes to get in between the screen and sliding glass door going to the porch!
saturday morning dana woke first and lin last (surpirse again) we moved slowly and had lunch around noon at chick-filet. we decided to go to Zilker Park from there. it's a nice park in south Austin at Barton Springs. we went through an auqifer exhibit there, waided in the river, walked around a little and rode the train! that was way fun. While in the water we talked to the boys who were on their way toward austin and they instructed us to have no fun until they got there. oops we forgot to NOT have fun! or we rebelled! :)
it was a bright sunny day, warm but not too bad, lin didn't complain about being hot OR being outside! :) good sport. we drove by a botanical garden (we'll do that next time!)
went back to the apartment to meet the boys, they beat us there, we stopped at a coffee shop! yum:p
we playe friends triva, threw playdough at each other (i bet you'll be wrong when you guess who started THAT!) and listened to the thunder as we watched the lightening --- no rain. we ate at Olive Garden and the cute little waitress flirted with our guys! :) she gave us extra bread too, cuz they're so cute!! (:
then we stayed up like gigglely teens at a slumber party!
Church at west over hills Sunday morning was fabulous, sitting in front of us were the Richard Benskins (jim's son and d-n-l) cool!
then to lunch at Doulbe Dave's -yumm again! (there the tide stick was challenaged on attacking pizza and pulled through greatly!)
we layed around for a while then played basketball at the gym, well, dana worked while she watched, then she called erin and we sang happy birthday to her! back for more play dough wars and packing up! had a royal milkshake and a quick hello to J.R. (lin's friend) then on the road.
Destination, Buda for evening worship. (thought about you big time Jamie) and to dinner with friends from there. That's a nice place with nice people, thanks dana for sharing with us!
then to san marcos to drop the girl off :( and the journey home! it was llllloooooonnnnnggggg and i was tired.
got home right at 10 and time for bed to begin another week!

it was such a great weekend, i know we missed wonderfull fellowship here on sunday but i wouldn't have traded it for the world! it was good to be with you girls! (and boys too--but that's every week!)
~oh the no traffic on the way was compensated for on the way home--BIG TIME!
