Girl's Weekend

Two weekends ago a few friends and I went down to Austin for a girls weekend. It was so nice to have a weekend just to ourselves without the worries of home. However, it was pretty hard for me not to worry cause it was my first time away from my baby, Abby had a stomach virus and Brian's flight got delayed overnight. But thanks to my wonderful mom who came up to stay for a couple of days, everything held together without me. Of course it did. But I guess when your a first time mom, you still worry that life will fall apart if you leave.

We stayed at the Driskill Hotel in Downtown right off of Sixth Street. We were right next to all the action. This is a pic of the foyer ceiling. The rest of the hotel was just as beautiful.

Cindy got a little friendly with Mr. Driskill.

And the birds got a little friendly with Carrie. The birds were INSANE in Austin. I guess it was that time of year when they hoard the trees and terrorize the people below with the constantly falling poop.

We went to this cute little bohemian spa downtown called Joie de Vie and got massages and pedicures. Mine are the pale feet with the super deep red. Man, I need a tan.

We also went to the San Marcos outlet malls and had a great time shopping, and also went to several different restaurants in Austin that were recommended. We had such a great time and hope to be able to do it again!
