We all have something in common!

Twins that is! We could talk for hours and actually did this past weekend at our 2nd Annual Twin Mamas Off-Duty Trip! We spent the weekend on Lake Travis and had a wonderful time.

Here’s the group from L to R: Hannah, Amy, Shelley, ME, Liz, Leah, and Kristi

We arrived Thursday and these sweet girls surprised me with a baby shower. It was TOTALLY unexpected and such a fun surprise…it was actually my first shower pregnant seeing that I had my baby showers post delivery of the girls since they came so early!  Their decor was super cute, very creative and BEST of all…it was a Cookies and Milk shower which is MY ALL TIME FAVORITE snack! I have cookies and milk every night before bed…and no it’s not a pregnant thing, although I wish it was! I was in heaven the rest of the weekend from literally having to eat a cookie on the hour, every hour, since there were so many. Thank you girls so very much for such a special shower, the cute gifts, fabulous cookies and for all the work you put into it, especially since it was ‘on the road'.

 

 

Onto the rest of the weekend festivities!

Our hotel and view. The Island on Lake Travis

 

Our boating experiences! Kristi brought the boat and I played Captain. It was very comical at times, but for the record, we all made it home safely.  Shout out to Brad for hauling the boat and getting it to our hotel! Thank you!

 

 

 

 

 

What would a trip to Lake Travis be without a GW stop? AND it was ticket FREE! Yes, 7 mamas of twins can pull it together to find: 7 life jackets (not to mention 2 of them were for children, but he gave us a B for effort), a whistle, fire extinguisher, and 2 square throwables.

 

Some group pics!

Already looking forward to next year…and I will make sure my car is parked in the correct spot! What a way to end such a great weekend by walking down to the parking garage to load up your car and it’s GONE! Towed that is! Yes, I accidentally parked my car one spot over from where I was supposed to, mainly because I didn’t really pay attention, the garage was empty and didn’t think the parking was that important, and the Condo owner to the spot I was parked in had my car towed! After a few phone calls, $245, and a trip 30 miles away, I had my car. Thanks Kristi for taking me and I loved getting to spend a few minutes with A&A!  Luckily, the Condo owner didn’t follow homeowner policy and they are reimbursing me…because they had my license plate on file and never researched it or tried to contact me. I also had to throw in that I was 7 months pregnant and sometimes don’t think very clearly! It worked!
