Sunday in Austin...

We had a great Austin Sunday today. After church, we stumbled into the "Gospel Brunch" at Stubb's. Now, I am not somebody who generally likes brunch - I like my breakfast food at breakfast and my lunch food at lunchtime, but this was a buffet brunch not to be missed - brisket, sausage, chicken, fried catfish, biscuits and gravy, potatoes, and other yummy goodness. It was fantastic! We got to hear some good gospel music too from a live band while we ate. I highly recommend it, and we'll definitely go back.

Afterwards, we went to the Travis Heights Art Trail, a tour through several Travis Heights homes/galleries of neighborhood artists showcasing their goods. We saw lots of interesting sculptures, photographs, paintings, ceramics, glass, etc. And, of course, it was neat to see some of the other houses in the area. We also got a great photo taken of us in a home-made "photo booth." I already have it framed and on display in the house.

Tonight, we went to see the state Christmas tree in front of the Capitol.
Speaking of Christmas trees, we got ours yesterday and decorated it last night (while K watched football, of course).
(And, note that I am wearing a tank-top on December 2nd. It was HOT today! I know last weekend I was complaining about the cold, but let's settle on somewhere in between!)
