In other news… the boys and I are heading to Austin tomorrow to hang out for a few days with family and do some fun summer stuff while Tim hits “Sin City” for a little down time with some of his co-workers.

If I get to it, tomorrow I may set up an auto-post for Monday (since the internet at my folks house is still back in the dark ages…) but if not I will “see” y’all middle of next week. I will miss you dearly oh internet friends!

I leave you with this… : )
