Auntie LeeLee's Visit

My best friend Leana came to visit this last weekend. Leana and I have known each other since sixth grade, so we had a good time reminiscing, marveling at how our lives have changed since we were 12, and trying to beat Mike at Nertz. Leana at least managed to be successful at beating him once, and I came up empty with no victories to my name for the weekend. We've been playing Nertz since high school, and the only thing that's changed now that we're in our 30s is Leana and I have somehow lost our dominance in the game to Mike, and that's both perplexing and infuriating to us at the same time...but I digress.

Leana was eager to meet Cameron, and he obliged her with his sweet, charming self. We kept her busy with all the exciting activities in a six-month-old's schedule. She witnessed one especially messy cereal feeding:

Leana got to meet Cameron's friend Jack, who hosted his first birthday party for the Wolfpack. As you can see, Jack REALLY enjoyed his birthday cupcake!


After spending a humid morning on the hike-and-bike trail, we cooled off by enjoying a delicious brunch at Moonshine (Austinites, I highly recommend you check this out, if you haven't already done so). Darrell Royal happened to be there, and since Cameron (and Mike) was sporting a UT onesie (well, Mike wasn't wearing a onesie - sorry for the visual image), I really wanted to get their picture taken together. For those of you who don't bleed orange, Darrell Royal is a legendary football icon and led UT to three national championships in the 1960s.


Leana, Cam, and I also went shopping at the Domain. Cam was a very good shopping buddy, but he found out how exhausting shopping can be! Like father, like son...
Leana's visit went by very quickly, and now Cameron misses Auntie LeeLee...especially her bright, sparkly rings!
