Desirae's 30th Birthday - Austin, Comal River and Lake Travis

We went to Austin June 25th - June 27th for Colt's aunt, Desirae's, 30th Birthday! We drove down on Friday and stayed at her condo that night. She lives at the Milago on town lake in Austin close to downtown.
It was pretty late when we got there because I had to work Friday afternoon. So when we got there on Friday, they played darts and they played a game of poker.
On Saturday, we woke up pretty early because we were sleeping in pretty close quarters and pretty much when one person got up, you were all up! We ran errands Saturday morning with Desirae's fiancee, Todd, to get stuff for her party on Sunday. We grabbed lunch at Freebirds and then headed to float the river.
Colt and Todd were a little torn between staying and watching the USA soccer game and going to the river but they recorded it and we went ahead and went to the river anyways. Colt was determined not to hear the score of the game until we got back home and he got to watch it. I made him a little mad after we got back and I looked up the score on my phone and went "ooh!" Sorry babe! I really didn't mean to give it away!  
Getting on the river was a little bit of an ordeal with as many people as we had, but we had a ton of fun once we got there!

As soon as we got back we had to watch the USA game. Unfortunately, they lost.
The Saturday night we walked a couple blocks to Luster Pearl. His aunt had wanted to go the night before at like 1 in the morning and we didn't go, so we went with her Saturday night. We didn't stay too long I think Desirae and Kristal closed the place down. We stayed in a hotel on Saturday night because there were so many people and we actually ended up getting our room free because the hotel we made a reservation in's A/C went out. Lucky us!

Sunday we met the party bus out at Lake Travis to get on the party barge for Desirae's party! We were there from about 11 to 3 and it was a TON of fun. The barge was nice and it had a slide and everything! We had hamburgers and all hung out all day before we had to head back home that afternoon.

Colt went down to the end of the dock where there were a ton of catfish.

A man fed them dog food and they went crazy! There was even a duck in there in the middle of them trying to get some food.
You can see the duck in this one!
This was the boat we were on for the day
.Lake Travis was very pretty. It's definitely the clearest lake water that I've ever seen.

Happy July!

Yesterday was the first day of JULY! Our 1st anniversary is on the 18th! It doesn't seem like we've been married a year already! The pic below is one of our "first look" wedding pics. We also go on vacation at the end of the month to Mexico. It's going to be a busy and fun month!
