We had a fantastic, fun, whirlwind trip to Austin and New Braunfels with good friends. We packed a ton of fun in four days and made some great memories. The Jackson family joined us for an afternoon and night in Austin and I got to see both Cindy and Olivia. We stayed at the iconic Austin Motel on South Congress and hit lots of Austin staples: Shady Grove, Home Slice, Amy's Ice Cream, Ojedas.
Then we traveled on to New Braunfels where we all met up with the Dellers and the Stumps at the cutest cabins EVER! We spent 3 days in New Braunfels where we swam, floated the Comal, went to Schlitterbahn, grilled out, laughed a ton, fed the deer, went fishing, visited Gruene Hall and The Gristmill and just had a blast together! We all agreed this was one of our best family trips and we plan to do this next summer all over again! Here are some of the pictures of our fun.
