Bratwurst before Turkey...

Dave was off the whole week of Thanksgiving so we decided to take our little fam of four on a mini vacay before heading to Houston for the holiday. We headed south to Fredericksburg to stay at Mimi and Paw Paw's B&B. Dave and I have been several times and took Anna once, but this was Graham's first trip to the German town. Fredericksburg is such a cute little German town full of good food, unique shopping, great culture, nice people and beautiful scenery! Now I steer clear from the brats, but they are famous for their authentic German food.

Good morning on the porch swing in our pj's. The B&B has a beautiful backyard and we always spend a lot of time out here. See Graham checking out the chiminea.
On a walk downtown checking out the fish pond.

Had to make a stop at the park downtown too.

They were working on putting in the ice rink for the Christmas season.

I forgot what these are called, but aren't they purty!

We enjoyed some good food!

Lots of swinging in the hamock in the backyard.

and some fun baths in the cute old timey tub.

Dave's cousin Scott and wife Hannah had their baby a few days early and since we were so close to Austin, we made a quick morning trip to meet baby Maggie.

And while we were in Austin we got to meet Amanda and Rhett for lunch! So fun!!

It was a fun little trip for our fam!
