It seems like the last few years we end up in Austin for Easter. So, I'm thinking that this might be our new family tradition. If you ever want to come...we would love it! Last year we were with my cousin, Jennie and her family . This year we went with my parents. We had so much fun! We got there on Friday and spent the day stuffing ourselves and then shopping. Let me tell you how wonderful the outlet shopping in Austin are...you never leave empty handed!
The next day we went to McKinney Falls and did a 3 mile hike. Yes, with the 5 year old and a 2 1/2 year old! They burnt off LOTS of energy! Here are some pictures from the day!
Getting ready for the big hike! Yes, Noah is wearing a Pirates "hat" with the "beads" hanging from it. 
Stopping for a break. We found picnic benches and had some lunch and then had an Easter Egg Hunt. We fill most of the eggs with candy and then some others with a paper that says "prize!!" and with that egg, they get a prize. Well, they refused to pick up the empty ones because there was nothing in them. What's the point??
On Sunday, we went to see the capitol. What a beautiful building! The boys seem to have a problem with taking pictures. Caden does some fake smile and can't hold still and Noah just does his own thing. So these were the best we could do. Maybe one day I can get some good pictures out of them...until then, this will have to do!!
While we were walking around, a police officer came up to us and asked if the boys wanted to play in the cop car!! How cool is that? so the boys had a fun time playing around in there and pushing buttons. Too bad there were no bars in the back, we could have locked them up!

That is going to be an Easter to remember! How nice that it was warm enough for a hike.
Sounds like a fun Easter. I've never been to Austin, but have heard it is beautiful. Love the pirate hat by the way. :) You'r boys are so cute!
Whatever, Summer! Those are way cute pictures of the boys! Addy has that pirates hat too...yay for McDonald's Happy Meals! Looks like you guys had a fun vacation.
We let Matthew play in Troy's cop car once, but then he pushed the "Help, I'm shot" button. He doesn't get to play in there anymore. Glad you had a fun Easter!
Looks like you had a lot of fun. And the pix of the boys are cute!
