Last weekend, we headed down south to drop Landon off with my parents for a couple of nights while David and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary in Austin.
Our first night in Austin we found a restaurant called Eddie V's and it was delish! I had snapper and it was the best fish I've ever had. David dined on steak and lobster stuffed shrimp and it was just as yummy. Our waiter brought out this anniversary dessert and it was made with warmed Godiva chocolate topped with ice cream...we were in heaven! 
After dinner, we took a carriage ride around downtown Austin (I know...so very tour-isty) and saw the state capital lit up at night.
You can't go to Austin without walking around 6th street, so that's just what we did. We did lots of people watching and just enjoyed each other without feeling rushed to get home. We also watched the show 'Esthers Follies'. If you're ever in Austin go see it! It was AWESOME! We laughed the whole time...so much fun!
The next day we walked around downtown and stopped in for a tour of the state capitol building.
We also found this beautiful Catholic church, so we decided to take a peek inside and it was just as beautiful on the inside.
We attempted a self portrait in front of the church, but this is as good as it got.
Here we are at The Melting Pot enjoying our yummy dessert! We chose the Flaming Turtle, which is chocolate, caramel, and chopped pecans, for dipping all of our dessert items in and by the time we finished we could hardly move...we were so full!
Cheers to many more happy years together! :)

So we basically planned on skipping dinner and just going for the dessert!

During the course of the weekend, we also did a little shopping, watched the movie, Horrible Bosses (which is hysterical), and enjoyed our time together. Thanks mom and dad for spoiling taking care of our little man for us!
After picking up Landon it wasn't time to come home yet. David had a conference to attend in San Marcos for a few days so Landon and I spent time with my dad while mom worked. When David finished his conference we headed to the beach! I'll be posting about those adventures soon!
