Getaway

This past week was my spring break.  Vince took off Monday and Tuesday so we had a 4 day weekend together.  Monday, the 11th, was the 10th anniversary of our first date...crazy!  We decided to go on a "babymoon" as a little getaway and it worked that we could make it coincide with the anniversary.  Considering it is South by Southwest this week and we wanted to stay relatively close by we had some limited options.  We ended up at the Inn Above Onion Creek, a ranch/inn between Kyle and Wimberly.  We had the most perfect weather.  We were probably the youngest couple at the inn but everyone was very nice and offered plenty of baby advice.  It was a perfect escape and we will cherish the time we spent there.

Here are pictures from our relaxing adventure (out of order but oh well)...

Our room - Maurice's Guest House in Maurice's Cabin

Watching the sunset on one of the porches after a delicious dinner in the main house


Beautiful handpicked flowers from the garden were in each room

Our room was the left side of this cabin

A fireplace with a remote control is always nice

On the way home we stopped at Wimberly Glass Works and watched them blow glass

Savoring a few more minutes in the garden before heading back to reality
