Two weeks ago 3 of my 5 cousins came to Austin to visit from Portland, Maine and Baltimore, MD. They all arrived on Saturday and Aaron and Jack left Wednesday, and Alyssa left Saturday. We had a great time and crammed a lot into their short time here and I think they got a pretty good taste of Austin! I feel really lucky to live in a place that has SO many fun things to do...I think I tend to take it for granted a lot but hello...we live in Austin, TX - I think we're pretty darn lucky!!
Here are some of the fun things we did! I don't have pictures of everything because unfortunately I had to work all week but I did get to do a lot of it :)
