Let's go to Austin!

Last weekend we surprised my sister, Emily, and showed up in Austin for her birthday. My younger sister, Susan, helped us keep it a secret and kept Emily distracted until we arrived. After a LONG car ride, we finally made it to Susan's house around 7pm. Susan saw us from the window and told Emily to come to the front to see a Halloween decoration and when she opened the door, there we were! Emily was stunned silent for a moment (those of you who know her, know that she is only capable of a moments silence) then once she realized who we were and that we were actually standing in front of her she let out the loudest shriek! Poor, tired little Claire was then stunned for a minute and started wailing! She recovered shortly. I had her wear her onsie that said "I love Aunt Em", but between all of the screaming and crying I did not think to get a picture of it!

Claire is signing the birthday card to Aunt Emily.

Saturday we all watched the UT/OU game. Uncle Eric and Mike were so excited throughout the game that Claire frequently cried because of their screams/yells/squeals of glee/etc. It was an awesome game - UT won! Claire wore one of the onsies that was made at my baby shower.

On Sunday we all went to lunch at Seranos - yummy! You can see that Claire was a little tired from the weekend.

We always have fun in Austin & this time was no exception! Hook Em!
