It’s time for yet another guest appearance from me, Clint. And I was just kidding with the blog title; I have the best in-laws ever. Steph’s parents made the journey from Bartlesville, Oklahoma for a weekend trip so see us, uh hmm, I mean Lane – and to bring the plethora of toys from Christmas that would not fit in our car on our drive home. 
Upon their arrival late Friday evening they immediately headed upstairs to Lane’s room. It is a blast seeing Lane’s grandparents love on him non-stop. Following a late-night meal and some cuddle time we were all ready to hit the sack. Saturday meant playtime for all, including Murphy. There is a group here in Central Texas know as the Austin Bostins club for owners of Boston Terriers. The club has monthly meet-ups at local dog parks. The Boston total on Saturday was roughly 15. This was our first event and thought Murph would be ‘all over this’, but that was not the case. We did get some great video of Murph playing with a few of her cohorts.
Following the park we ventured south to the outlet malls in San Marcos and then to Gruene for dinner at the Gristmill. We try to get down there at least once a year for tubing and dinner, but tubing in January is not big business so we opted out. Check out the photo of Laners falling asleep in his highchair during dinner.
Sunday involved me sleeping ‘til noon and then Larry and me working outdoors while the girls tackled a few items on Steph’s creative to-do list. Following a light lunch on the back porch, we headed to the stores and finally dinner at the Hula Hut on Lake Austin downtown, along the way driving through some of Austin’s more luxury neighborhoods.
And today, I sent Grace and Larry packing. We had a great time this weekend and next month, my family makes the trip down. And the next month, her family comes back. The grandparents are under the assumption that whoever comes to visit Lane more wins a prize. We’re ok with that assumption.
See yall later.
Clint
