deep in the heart of texas


well, this is what we left in kentucky on march 8th....


... and this is what we found in texas!! (not until friday, but still.)


we went down to visit the leauanae's in round rock and had a fabulous time!
we started with some barbecue and banana pudding (kawelo's favorite).



of course, we hit ikea and the outlets at san marcos (the best shopping ever!!), and we visited the university of texas - shown here with the state capitol building in the background.




we went to some really great parks, too.
this one had a nature center with a dino dig area.



it also had a train that went around a huge section of the park (koa's favorite).




kam took our family's pictures and they turned out so wonderfully!

thanks, kam!!!



we finished up with another barbecue, leauanae-style.
it's not texas if you don't have barbecue!


we had such an incredible time!!

kalei's favorite was spending time with her cousins, and we all found our house a little lonely after being together all week.

thanks, leauanae's, for such a wonderful vacation!!
