TEJAS!!!

Wow! So disclaimer, I always somehow end up uploading the photos in reverse order... oops! I'm sure y'all will still get it!!

Anyhoo, I went on my much anticipated trip to Texas last weekend and had a blast! I went to visit one of my best friends from Semester at Sea, Anna. We mainly stayed around Waco and Austin for the weekend but there was plenty to do there. On Friday I went shopping and got the AMAZING panda (WWF) shirt that you see in some of the pics below... WHOOHOO! Saturday was our big day!! We started off in Crawford to stalk Georgie and Laura's ranch... which apparently you aren't supposed to stop, stand, or park around so we just looked while driving! And just so you know, Crawford is THE smallest town I have ever seen... 751 to be exact! WHHHAAT??!! From there we drove on to Austin to check out the Whole Foods head quarters... I know, I know... I'm my father's daughter! We had an amazing lunch there before heading over to Lockhart to visit another friend from SAS, Wes. Wes lives on a cattle ranch and we had a BLAST playing with the cows!!! We went waaaay out on his property to find a bunch of cows so we could feed them! Once we stopped they began surrounding the truck and, I'm not gunna lie, I was a tad frightened! BUUUUUUT, all was well once we shared the food! They are soo cute, especially the babies! The next day it was time for me to leave... but not before we went to Austin's one and only Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf where I took the wrong drink... woopsie!!! Whatever it was, was uber good! Before heading to the airport we also stopped by Swirl, an amazing self-serve (that was my favourite part) frozen yogurt place! Yummmm! Overall though the trip was really good! It was great to see Anna and Wes and the memories are endless! I always feel so at home when I'm around SAS friends and I can't wait for our next reunion! :)
Enjoy the pics!
love love love
