River Birthday for my Momma

We loaded up and headed to my parents river house on Thursday.  My mom, the birthday girl, and my sweet girls hit the road Thursday morning.  After 3 stops and pouring rain we made it :)  Kate was beyond excited to be there.  My mom and I took the girls out to eat, and to the Children's museum of New Braunfels. (Totally recommend!). Poor Abbey was a little under the weather but was still a trooper.  My dad and Erik got to the river Friday afternoon.  Abbey was the most excited to see her Daddy.  In fact, she said her 1st word DA DA DA while looking and waving at Erik.  For weeks now, Kate has been trying to get Abbey to say DA DA.  :)  We got to Kayak, and had a fun picnic lunch at the Driftwood winery.  It was a gorgeous day in the Hill Country and the perfect setting to celebrate my wonderful momma's birthday.  Erik and my dad also went on a Kayak adventure for 2 1/2 hours.  They made it out alive, but not so much for my dad's phone.  Timmy T took a tumble in the freezing water and his phone went with him :(

What a special weekend to spend with family.  So thankful for such amazing memories.

We drove home on Sunday morning.  Both girls were seriously so good in the car.  Talk about a wonderful mother's day present.  More about Mother's Day a little later...
