Spring Break Getaway

Shane and I will be celebrating our 10 year anniversary in April this year. Due to schedules with the boys and work, we did not have any time to celebrate then, so we decided to take a little trip over spring break to celebrate. While his parents watched the boys, we headed to the hill country to stay at a nice bed and breakfast and just relax.

We arrived in San Marcos and did some shopping at the outlet mall prior to heading to our destination of Sage Hill Inn. The view there was absolutely gorgeous. While there we enjoyed good food, beautiful scenery, and a peacock named Kevin.









 Our second day there, we headed to Wimberly to the Wimberly Glassworks where they do glass blowing. After that we headed to Wimberly Valley Winery, then to lunch back in Wimberly, then to Duchman Family Winery. We then made our way back to Sage Hill Inn where we went on a hike on the grounds. It was a fun filled day.

Today, we left Kyle, Texas and headed to Hamilton Pool Preserve. I had not been there since my college days at UT. Interestingly enough, in the early 1990's it was not an overly popular place and we drove right in and went swimming in the pool. Fast forward to today when you have to wait in line to get in to see the pool and no swimming is aloud at this time due to the bacteria in the water. Regardless, the wait was worth it. It is beautiful and relaxing. We went on a yet another hike that followed the water flow from Hamilton pool out into the Pedernales River. It was a nice, relaxing hike with more breathtaking views.






















After that we headed to The Oasis in Austin, had some lunch and then headed home. It was a nice, relaxing time away.
