As some of you may know, my birthday was last week.... so was my first anniversary! Poor Steven!
For my birthday, Steven took me out to dinner at a place called Baris. It was the perfect choice for so many reasons. He knows I lust after pizza, always. This was a place where I could get great pizza and he doesn't have to have pizza too! Plus, this was the very first restaurant we went to in Pflugerville. It was a good way to end the summer. We finished off the night with a girly movie (my choice, of course) and chocolate cherry skillet cake!
Two days later marked one year from our wedding day. It also marked our last day in Texas!!! We started out the morning with gifts and then made breakfast together. (Steven set an alarm to get up and make me breakfast in bed, but I was awake before it went off! lol oops!) We headed to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin. It was a place I'd wanted to go to for most of the summer. It was so great! They had a lot of interactive learning activities in the buildings. We had a lot of fun learning about biospheres and about all the different kinds of flowers!
It was a pretty big place. They had lots of different "theme" gardens. They also had a butterfly garden where there were a few different types of butterflies moving around.
My favorite part was the gift shop at the end. As soon as we stepped in, Steven made a comment that something smelled great. I said the exact opposite. "No it doesnt! It smells terrible!" We wandered the gift shop and saw some pretty cool stuff, but before leaving Steven asked what he was smelling. The lady working there didn't even hesitate before saying "Oh something died in the walls" I had to walk away I was laughing so hard! We laughed about it the rest of the day!
MANY more to come
