Courtyard By Marriott Austin Central

I want to wish everyone a happy thanksgiving.
I had a great thanksgiving week. I want to thank some of you who have already donated. Thank You.

My grandparents came and brought me money from some of my sponsors. I had to make sure I sent out thank you e-mails. My dad had to send in more money to People to People so I could get a confirmed spot in the program.

I will have soap for sale soon, and details of my other fundraisers.

Susan and I finished packing all our clothes and gear this morning to start our excursion. Since we will be traveling for a month, we needed both warm and cold weather clothes. We also packed our skiing gear in case we stop at a place where we ...

Hello

... love of the child or fear of the loss? I cannot say. But I know it makes me wonder. It makes me wonder if there isn't an inherent dose of one always within the other.

We can fall out of love. We can overcome fear. It is possible to be dealing with the good and end with a bad, and also to start off with a bad and end with a good. Is one innately more desirable and beneficial than the other? I would have to disagree.

It happened to be some Harley Davidson Rally weekend. Well doing some research now...I see it called ROT (Republic of Texas) Rally 2009 which is the biggest biker rally in Texas. As you can imagaine. There were hundreds of bikers and their bikes all over the place. Streets were closed off to allow this event to happen. I was definitly liking it. I like bikes...so this was a unexpected highlight event for me. This lasted throughout the first weekend. We ...

My friend Bev threw an amazing going away party for me. We all got together at her house and had bloody marys, burgers, and beers. Derek came in town and brought his special lady friend, so I got to meet Kelly. Omar came in from San Antonio. Layla and Dave came up. Janello was there. My friend Moni had met me for lunch a ...

... a good conversation. We feel like we identify with their style and personality. She asked me to schedule a conversation with their executive pastor to get some more ideas about what we could bring to their team. After that we headed back into downtown Austin. I gotta say we are really enjoying it. It feels alive, there is so much energy. We grabbed a meal at Guero's Taco Bar. It was very tasty. Outside they had a small stage where a band was playing while people ...

... que l'on retrouve sur les murs et les planchers. En 1995-1996, les Texans ont procédé à une restauration afin de permettre un agrandissement pour ajouter des bureaux administratifs. La particularité de cet agrandissement est que tout a été fait, cinq étages, sous le niveau du sol avec un immense atrium au centre, qui fait les cinq étages avec un toit en verre qui nous permet de voir le ciel et même une partie du capitole. Un guide nous ...

... coaster, but that's another story - suffice to say he's better now! Fingers crossed. So what have we been up to? Well, we spent a very enjoyable couple of hours in a supermarket - I know we're very sad aren't we? But it is a spectacular place as you will see. (Those who followed us last time will know about it already) It really is a delight to wander down the aisles, meander ...
