This week is Spring Break and you know what that means. No school all week. Every year during this time our girls go and spend a few days with their grandparents. It gives Ross and I the chance to have a few date nights and share some one-on-one time together. It also gives the kids the opportunity to get spoiled rotten. They don't hate it. 

We spent Saturday night at Rodeo Austin. It was straight up nasty, rainy and freezing. There was no way in heck I was wearing anything but rain boots. I was a little bummed that I didn't get to slip on my cowboy boots, but it just wasn't happening. We look forward to this time each year. It's hard to beat carnival food (chili cheese fries covered in sour cream and jalapenos), smokey BBQ cook-offs, Ferris Wheel rides, rodeo cowboys and the Josh Abbott Band (that's who performed). There was no way we were going to let the weather damper our plans, so we sucked it up and got a little muddy along the way. It was 100% worth it. Sunday morning was a different story. We lost an hour of sleep, had to get up early and drive two hours for a family reunion. Long day. 

Sunday evening we took full advantage of not having to pay for a sitter and headed out for a Chinese food fest. Once we snapped out of our food coma and still lethargic on the sofa, we did what all old married couples do, we watched a movie without any interruptions (ahem, breaking up sisterly bickering). Sweet bliss.

In other news, I have pink eye in BOTH eyes. What in the world? So, there your go, the reasoning behind sunglasses when quite frankly, it wasn't really sunny out. Happy new week to me!
