We are living the life. On Saturday night, kind of late, James' sister Becky and her husband Ryan came into town to stay with us for a little bit. On Sunday we got to relax with them and play some games. Then yesterday we dove right into the local scene, and started with Zilker Park. We played on the playground, and the fire truck too.

Becky showed everyone how to drive the fire truck, she is a really good driver.

we played in the interactive music part of the park, that was fun, but it was nothing compared to the train ride. Leslie and her crew met us there and we all rode the train around then lunch and more playing.

After all that playing we needed naps, but sadly they were not very long, but we had so much to do. We met James for dinner and then went and climbed Mt. Bonnell.

Turns out that Harrison is a really great climber.


We saw the lake, had some time to catch up a bit, and watch the kids play in the dirt and "jungle" as Gwen called it.

Here is a little where's the Barlow's picture...

Ah yes, there they are.

It was such a nice and warm day, perfect for spending time outside. While we were at the park Ryan checked the weather on his phone and it was snowing in Utah, so I guess they picked a pretty good getaway spot. Becky even got a little sunburn, that will be a nice treat to take home. We are having so much fun I feel like I am the one on vacation. Can't beat that.

It looks like the jungle to me too. Unfortunately I can confirm the snow.
We not only have snow it is -22 today! So cold!!! Looks like fun for the Austin Barlows! with a few Utah Barlows added in.
I love zilker. It was such a perfect day yesterday and what a great day to hit the best spots of Austin. I hope you sang the zilker train song while you were there!!! Glad you get to have company.
How fun to have visitors come. And these pictures make me miss Austin! Glad you are having such a good time.
What fun day. I am beginning to wonder if spring will ever come to Layton. It snowed 2 inches at our house yesterday.
Well lucky for you guys to have company and match that up with a great time. I was so mad about Monday, we had to cancel our fieldtrip to Hardware Ranch to see the elk in the sleigh, all my students were so sad. Yesterday was warm but today was cold it barely got to freezing (32) today but I hear were on a roll, supposed to be 35 tomorrow and warmer through the rest of the week. Your weather looks wonderful I could do with a vacation too, but of course it's not my spring break. Have a great week. love, the Dattages
What there's a Zilker train song? Oh Lonna you are holding out on us. I loved our day downtown of perfect weather. Thanks for introducing us to Central Market...all 1.5 lbs. of gummy frogs I bought didn't even make it home! I am certain there are healthy things there too, but why bother?
I hope that Becky shows off her sunburn to all those crazy Utahns in the snow. Maybe the rest of them will decide it's time for a trip here too.
I love the train ride! It was so fun to be with the kids on it, and take a few mins to relax.
