A Whole New World

A whole new world, stepping through the keyhole, down the rabbit hole, whatever you want to call it, we have embarked on an adventure! One minute we are in Virginia selling our townhouse and buying a sweet little farmhouse

and the next, we are high tailing to Long Horn Country in Austin, Texas! Why Texas, why now? Well why not??? Actually, we figured this was the perfect time to move because Shelby Lynn is not yet in school and schools were one of the deciding factors, along with cost of living, southern charm and graces and of course Miss Melanie and her family, and since the purchase of the other home fell through we took a leap and cannonballed right into the heart of Texas. I came on down to find us a place

We decided to go to the parade in downtown Round Rock, it wasn’t all that grand but we still enjoyed getting out.

After the parade we grabbed some sandwiches and had a quick picnic in the park.
