Then we got some dessert at the bakery... it was $13! hahaha Isn't that about right - spend more on dessert than dinner??? In our defense, we got a dozen cookies to take back to the boys. 
But we did get a Zuppcotto... heaven on a plate! It was chocolate mousse meets sponge cake meets delight! It was fabulous!
We (read Kim) were a little nervous about finding the Center and parking since it was on the HUGE UT campus, so we got to the campus about 2 hours before show time. It was my first visit to the campus, so it was neat to walk around and see the stadium, tower and more.
Finally it was showtime!!!
The show did not disappoint! It is hard to pick favorite parts.... but Jason really liked Defying Gravity. This time I really liked For Good. It got me all sappy about the people who have touched my life.Saturday we slept until 10 - GLORIOUS treat!!! Then we walked the Capital of the GREATEST state in the nation!
I loved the door knob!
There was a high school government assembly that day. They took a lunch break and we walked onto the floor of the House of Reps. It was awesome to see/touch the chairs and desks. Then after I was taking about a zillion photos, the adult leader got on the microphone and said if we were not a part of the school group we could not be on the floor. Oh well, it was fun!
Check out the door hinges!
The top of the dome gives me chills every time!
The real flag from Gonzales... the boys would have freaked out! Seeing it made us commit to going to Gonzales this summer!
After about an hour on the Capital Grounds, we hit the road home. Lockhart is one of the BBQ capitals of TX. We ate a delicious meal at Smitty's...
We got beef shoulder, ribs and sausage. I also got a small potato salad and Jason got beans.
This is really not intended to be of the ATM, but to look beyond the ATM to the long tables of the dining room.
The rest of the way home we did our FPU homework... more on that later! All in all, it was a wonderful treat to get a little break and to invest in our marriage. Thank you Mom and Dad for keeping the boys!
