So long, farewell, it's time to say goodbye.


The movers will be here in 2 days to move all of our stuff to Fort Worth. I have been packing boxes all week and Rick will come home tomorrow to help me finish. Rick will go with the movers to help unload, and I will join him on Sunday after all of my cupcake orders are done.

I will come back on Thursday to clean up the condo and get my cupcake sready for the wedding I am doing in Blanco on the 27th. That next day, the 28th, we will have one final afternoon in Austin at the Oasis for Rick's birthdya celebration.


We will miss everybody so much and I loved living in Austin for the past 8 years. Hopefully, we will move back someday. We will definitely be visiting. Everybody PLEASE come visit us in Fort Worth- I am sure there is more to do there than watch cattle. I hope!

The look






This is the look you get if you are a little girl who takes the other coin-operated train that Finn was eyeing.

Train Ride


You know you are hot stuff when you are rubbing elbows with the Three Minute Oatmeal man. Yes, that is just one of the many celebrity sightings that we had on our train ride to the Bertram Oatmeal Festival. On Saturday, we took a train ride from Cedar park to Betram, where they were having their Oatmeal Festival. The train ride was pretty fun, and Finn enjoyed it since he is obsessed with Thomas the Tank Engine. We got to walk though the cars while it was in motion, and stop in between cars for some really nice views.

the Oatmeal Festival was pretty funny. They had planes that flew overhead and dropped oatmeal on the town. We made it just in time for the parade that featured the elderly drill team of the town"The Plungettes", low-riders, civil war re-enacters, and tons of people throwing candy. Finn got soooo much candy. It's really funny how much he took to Oatmeal Man- he really thinks that he is a superhero now and and will jump off the couch and say "I'm Oatmeal Man." Everybody needs a hero, I guess.
