it's bambi!

okay so we arrived here in hill country around 4:30pm to check-in. after about an hour wait we were assigned a condo... and it was so worth the wait. we got upgraded to their newly renovated presidential units! i plan to take some pics of our unit when the hubster wakes up and the bed is made. and, aside from being in a condo beneath the noisiest rednecks fellow vacationers ever AND our fridge being broken, it is pure bliss. it's so stinkin cozy here! we ate out at a local restaurant last night that was not that spectacular, but it's not like houston where food choices are endless, so you eat it and you like it! then on our way back to the condo from dinner, we took a detour to see if we could get a glimpse of the many deer in the area (that will n sarah have witnessed on past visits). sure enough they were out wandering and i got to snap a few shots of them with two babies! they were only about 20ft away, but the pic is still grainy from the zoom. anyway, here they are in all their beautifully natural glory...



you may want to click on the photo to make it bigger so you can see all their cuteness.

more later yall...

hill country or bust!

we are officially on vacation!

i'm so excited! i don't even know how i'll sleep tonight!

tonight i'll finish packing, clean the house (because who doesn't like to come home to a clean house?), and we'll be all set!

tomorrow morning we are bound for hill country! here is where we'll be staying. we'll be in a lodge unit, in case you're wondering. we is me, the hubster, my baby bro (will), and his wife (sarah).

shout out to sarah's parents, joni n brad: i have no idea if yall even read my blog, but thanks for giving us the hook-up on this sweet setup!

hey i also believe justin is actually planning to take some pics on this trip... i know, i know, you'll believe it when you see it, right?

i'll post as time allows so you all can begrudge wish you were there with me!

hubby's funnies (#7)...

i can't quite recall the actual event that sparked the following dialogue. something about him not paying attention to me when i'm talking. i talk. i can't help it. and if my sentence is longer than one syllable, he zones. he can't help it. so let's enter mid-conversation at the dinner table...

him: i totally pay attention to you!

me (in a not-at-all whiney voice): but not in public! you never pay attention to me in public!

him: i do too pay attention to you in public! you get more public attention than the president!
