It's only a day away. . .

Yes, it was only a day away, but it was a fun day away!! Here's our adventures in Austin! Who knew it was only 3 hours away?!? But, because Trish & I don't like our pictures taken, here are Bear & Elephant to tell you about our trip!

7:45 am . . . time to leave. A little later than planned, but everyone is excited!

Had lunch at La Madeline. . . but nobody wanted to admit how much they ate. Here's the leftovers! It was delicious!

Here it is!! IKEA!! We spent 4 hours in there!! Found a ton of things. . . why can't money grow on trees?

Off to the outlet mall. Fossil didn't have the right watch, so we stopped to enjoy some Starbucks Passion Tea (and a small cookie)!

Off to pick up Trish's sister at the hospital where she works. Then, to her house to see about Bella. Bella's staying, so we stop at HEB. I do have to admit that it was a pretty cool HEB.

A Sugar Free Redbull for Bear for the drive home.

Back to IKEA to pick up our furniture. . . and a few other things!

OK, time to end the day. Time to head back to real life.

Enjoying the beautiful sunset (not bad for a moving shot)

As it gets darker, things aren't looking quite right.
Bear: I don't think we're going the right way. This doesn't look familiar.

Elephant: What town did we just go through?
Bear: Hamilton.
Elephant: Let's look at the map
Photobucket

Elephant: Nope, we missed our turn somewhere. Just take this other highway
and we'll be back on track. Glad we noticed that now!
We were heading for Ft. Worth!

So now, we're back on track headed back to Clyde.

We arrive home about 11:30 pm and I think Bear & Elephant are both exhausted!!
Thanks, Bear, for the WONDERFUL day!!
We MUST do that again sometime . . .
sometime soon!
