Our weekend

This wednesday is our 3 year anniversary and Cody decided to take me away from mommy hood for a couple of days since we have yet to get away for our anniversary. Our first anniversary I was fat as a cow awaiting the birth of Lizzie. On our second anniversary I was very busy planning Lizzie's first birthday party. So this was the year...
We left early Friday morning and left the kids with my mom for the weekend. Our first stop was Marble Falls where we ate and enjoyed the scenery at the River City Grille. We arrived at our condo on lake LBJ about 3:00pm. Cody launched the boat and I took pictures off of our balcony.
There is our boat. It is funny how many people wanted to race us once we were out in the water. Everyone...and I mean everyone, seems to stop and stare when this boat goes by. The best was the little six year old boy that told his daddy "I want that boat dad." That just made Cody's day.


After going out on the river we decided to drive around. Since I did not have Wesley with me and would not be nursing for the weekend we decided to find some good Mexican food with some margaritas...ok, it only took one for me. I haven't had a margarita in about 2 years. We stumbled on this place called the Tamale King in Buchanan Dam, Tx. Seemed a little cheesy at first, but ended up with the best fajitas that I have ever had and a well worth it margarita.

The water was very low in both Lake Buchanan and Lake Travis. Here you can see the dark line at the top of the Buchanan Dam where the water normally hits. All of this is normally covered in water. It was sad to see the many floating boat docks on the lake that were useless because there was no water.
