The Euken's ... Life as we know it!

puerto ovilla

It is not really a place ... just a road with a Spanish twist :) and Puerto Ovilla sounds more exotic and interesting than Red Oak, TX.

Nonetheless, that is where I spent 7 days of spring break!

I had a blast with my family! I love them!

There was St. Patty's Day: we had Sprinkles cupcakes :) I chose the Irish Dark Chocolate ... Belgian dark chocolate cake with Bailey's cream cheese frosting ... it was as good as it sounds!!! but would have been better with more Bailey's in the frosting :)




And we had to spend some time at a pub :) Here are Tim and Danielle




And Aimee and I




Among other things we:
-shopped
-ate at cool restaurants
-watched morning TV
-shopped
-sat in the sun
-watched basketball
-shopped
-laughed a lot
and made these Mocha Cupcakes with a Chocolate Mocha frosting :)




And like any good trip there were a few mishaps:

A broken pizza stone :(



A flat tire on the side of I35 :(


Here is my brother changing the tire ... we sat in the car and secretly took pictures :)


And a broken microwave :(

I love Tejas

I don't think that last picture is a microwave... what in the world is that? Somebody eating dirt off the side of the road??? Glad you had fun!

Laughing. I was going to say something similar. Guessing it's your brother changing the tire while you sat inside the car? ;) The cupcakes look delicious!
