Austin

We had planned a week-long trip to Austin for some time, and were happy to finally get to do it. Though we were exhausted and left an unpacked house, we had a very restful and fun visit. Kristina finally got to meet some of my cousins, and experience a bit of Austin. Here we are at Lucy's fried chicken with James, Sandy, Sara, Elle, Auntee, and FaMo:

I turned 30 (!) while we were in Austin, so we all got together at my choice, El Chile. The Scot Hugheses joined the fun:

Merrill finally got to do some "babysittering":

I also got to preach at Trinity in Austin, and Kristina finally got to see the church that she's a member of:
