Mom and I had been planning to attend the Country Living Fair in Austin since we first learned there was going to be a fair there. I hadn’t been to Austin in quite a few years…I think when I had a job interview there to be exact. That was in 2004…very long ago. So, needless to say I was so confused when we drove in. I was so tired…and now I believe that was the pregnancy hormones kicking in. I also was very snappy…sorry Mom. We finally made it to our hotel and got some much needed rest. We headed to the fair that next morning and I swear we were so silly…that kind of silly where you are so excited you are giggling. Ha! The first day we mainly checked things out but we did make a few little purchases. Mom and I also ran in Jackie and Valerie Greene who had their booth all set up. They were busy so it took us a few minutes to get up to them. It was so nice to see their sweet, friendly faces. We stayed until it was time to shut down…we didn’t make it all the way through so we were glad we bought the two day pass. That evening we made a trip to IKEA and then I took Mom to Chuy’s. YUM! That was so good! She swears that is her favorite Mexican food restaurant now. I honestly couldn’t get enough of the salsa…again my pregnancy hormones.
Loved your posting! I sooooo wanted to get to Austin, but as usual something family came up. Maybe next time if they have it there again. I am really enjoying keeping up with you and your pregnancy. You sound so happy that it is infectious and you spread it around like butter. Keep up the good work and I am so “over the moon” happy for you two. Love you…..Janice
Oh it was so fun! I think next year (hopefully they return) will be even better! Plus, getting big things home won’t be an issue next time. I had to settle for smaller goodies but hey they sure are some wonderful goodies.
