Austin - Lost Pines


We got back from New Orleans one weekend and went to Austin the next.  So, this trip was around mid-July.  Chris and Ian had some work to do in Austin so we tagged along and made it a weekend trip.


The Lost Pines Resort was awesome!  The kids LOVED the lazy river.  It is a very kid friendly place with lots of stuff to do, but we mostly wanted to hang out at the pool.


Ben loved the lazy river, but he might have loved the water slide even more.  They let me take him down the slide in my lap.  It wasn't very fast so I was able to hand him off to Chris at the bottom.  He wanted to go again, and again, and again.


There was a beach entry with sand to play in, and a kids' pool, and splash yard.  Even the big pool was shallow enough for the kids to stand in.  There was an adult-only area, but I only saw it as we went past it on the lazy river.


Sam and Ben had a lot of fun playing with Liam.  They got to be big buddies on this trip.


We played in the water for hours until Ben fell asleep in my lap.


Chris is missing from the pictures because he was not feeling well most of the weekend.  He stayed in bed most of the time and wasn't feeling well until several days after we got back in town.  Poor guy!


Here we are eating ice cream on the lawn after dinner.


We watched movies outside on the lawn both nights.  Sam wanted to live like this forever.  He especially loved all of the attention he was getting from his godparents.


In bed with my babies watching TV ... I was enjoying this and did not want to get back to the fast pace back in Dallas!!!
