Mid Week Vacation

So Josh has been working crazy hours lately. When I say crazy, I mean "a la NYC" crazy. He goes in at 7 and comes home at 7 but then after Tivon's bath, he works from home until 2 ish. So all this equates to little quality time with ti ti and me. Sooo, I was pleasantly surprised when Josh decided to work from home this morning. He got up early to get a jump start before Tivon was awake. Then Tivon and I played in the neighborhood with Wilson while Tivon wore his Santa Claus pajamas and darth vader slippers--missed that photo opportunity! He may forever be known as "Darth Claus" now.

Finally Josh decided an early lunch was in order. Where else to take a lunch break but Deep Eddy pool? The pool is in the background--like the infamous Barton Springs, Deep Eddy is a spring filled pool--no nasty chlorine. Tivon is saying "geese" in the picture.

The first time we took Tivon to the pool he screamed and wouldn't get in so this time I came armed with toys: balls, duck, cars, and squid. This worked like a charm. It was hard to get him out of the pool. He likes to drop things in the drainage ditch and watch it float.

And what is a lunch break without lunch? We stopped at a local taco joint that is operated out of an airstream trailer. Tivon LOVED the spicy queso on homemade chips. This boy loves him some spicy--definitely doesn't have Indiana taste buds. :) Our little outing felt like a vacation!
