last week was my spring break and i had the opportunity to go to texas to visit my brother, sister-in-law, and my nephews and niece! it was a blast. along with just hanging out with them, we ate several amazing meals (including the best sushi i have ever experienced & fresh oysters!), walked around UT, and saw lots of Austin. here are some snapshots (mostly of the family side) of my trip:dyeing Easter eggs on Easter morning before church
our Easter egg hunt after church- Joel and I hid all the eggs in the backyard and it was so fun. there's nothing like watching kids hunt for candy filled goodness! and then trying to remember where you hid all the real eggs....thankfully the kids found them all!
canoeing on town lake (which is really a river that runs through Austin). we had two canoes that Joel tethered together with a life vest, creating the "Thollander Barge"- we were a force to be reckoned with on the water. see the beautiful Austin skyline in the background!
we went to a dinosaur museum and outside practiced jumping for the camera. the kids really got the hang of it! (well Ben's got a good jump here, there's a series of about 15 of these)
i of course joined in some too
it was so good to see my family!
