Texas Land & Cattle
Wednesday, October 8, 2008
A few pictures from our lunch at Texas Land & Cattle restaurant. Kyla enjoyed all the long-horn steers on the wall and kept saying "moo" (one of her new favorite words). Kept her well-entertained so that made Mummy and Daddy happy too!

Dinner at Oasis

We took Ma & Pa to see the beautiful sunset over Lake Travis in Northwest Austin. The food leaves something to be desired, but the view is amazing!

Kyla really does not appreciate the family photo opps
But she does enjoy playing with Papa!
Pumpkin Farm
Sunday, October 5, 2008
Last weekend we headed out to Sweetberry Farms in Marble Falls, Texas to pick pumpkins. It was the first weekend they were open for the pumpkin season, so it was nice and quiet. It was a new experience for Mum & Dad Scott and I think they enjoyed it. As you can see, Kyla had a blast with all the animals to pet, things to explore and lots of room to run. Personally, my favorite was the homemade pumpkin ice cream!

28 Weeks - Belly Picture
Monday, September 29, 2008
I skipped over 24 weeks, oops - so on to the 28 week picture. I swear this shirt makes me look much smaller than I am - or at least how I feel. Everything seems to be going along great with the baby as he thumps away in there. Wish I could say the same with my sciatic nerve on the left side - OUCH!!

Driskill Hotel Visit
Mum and Dad took a break from Extended Stay Hotel, and moved on up to the posh Driskill Hotel for a romantic weekend. John and I of course have a fondness for this hotel as it's where we spent our wedding night, where I stayed the day before we got married and where many of our wedding guests stayed. Mum and Dad had a lovely room with a balcony overlooking 6th street, so John, Kyla and I came by one night for a visit.

More Work for Papa
Saturday, September 27, 2008
As if trimming our tree wasn't enough, we put John's dad to work again - this time painting the garage (actually he insisted on it!). It was never painted by the builders, so he gave it a nice fresh coat of white paint. Great Work!
Look at those legs!

Nice work Papa!
Piano with Daddy
Wednesday, September 24, 2008
Although we don't often have a chance to hear John in concert with all the craziness of a typical day, we got a special performance while his parents were in town from Scotland. Kyla LOVES to hear her daddy play and was all about sitting with him and playing a little bit herself. She's actually pretty good - and by the look on her face you can see she's enjoying the show!
