Texas Pride!

Our weekend was really nice...we got a new recliner for the living room and also got a new computer desk for our office! Sunday, we tried out a new lake called Lake Calhoun (just for you mom!). It was so pretty and was just packed with people laying out, swimming (burr!), and BBQing.

The highlight of our weekend was Saturday's lunch. We went to lunch at a place walking distance from our apartment called Baker's Ribs. It is authentic Texas BBQ!!! The owner is from Texas so the whole restaurant is covered in Texas paraphernalia. It was SO neat! He had TX license plates, Texas Monthly magazines, UT stuff, and best of all Texas A&M stuff! Of course we had to sit at the table by the A&M stuff and picture of Kyle Field! :) Michael was most excited b/c it is the first place that has served real (and non-flaovred) sweet tea! It was really fun and neat to see a place like that in Minnesota! I told Michael while we were eating that I hadn't felt all that homesick yet until we ate there! And when the older man walked in the restaurant with his UT hat on, I told Michael to hurry and put his A&M hat back on so we could represent! :)
