Outdoors

The boys and I had a busy day today.

First, we went to someone's house to buy some books for the boys.  We have a neighborhood Facebook group where people post things they want to sell. This woman was selling a bunch of her sons books that he no longer reads.  The kids loved the house.  Not for the books, but for the animals.  She rescues animals, mostly cats.  There were quite a few cats walking around that the kids played with.  We picked out a few books and then left.

Next, we met Morry at Wholy Bagel.

From there, we went to Half Price Books.  I filled up 3 bags with our old books.  I wanted to see if we could get any money for them and the boys wanted to pick out some books too.  I ended get a little bit of money for our stuff.  The boys picked out a few Garfield and Calvin and Hobbes books.

Then, we went on a hike/swim.  We went to the Barton Creek Greenbelt.  It's a long system of various trails and the stream.  We walked about 1/2 mile to the stream, that was pretty full and busy.  The boys had a great time playing in the water and swinging off a rope.  Then we did a little more walking around and found a nice spot with a bridge/deck.  We hung out there for a little bit too.

We got home mid afternoon and both boys fell asleep. They almost never take naps.

We had to wake them up so we could pick up some dinner.

We go Subway for the boys and Via 313 pizza for us.

We ate at home and now the boys are getting ready for bed.

Here are some pictures from today.
