Austin's 2008 Tree of the Year

I used to live behind this park, Central Park. I would go to school (UT) then come home and walk over to Central Market for lunch or groceries or dinner (aaaand sometimes all three).
My brother Mike would meet me for dinner with baby Zoe and then later with baby Anica as well. Mike, Zoe, and Anica met me for lunch today at CM as I was passing through Austin to head back home.

I love, love, love seeing my nieces. I wish I could see all nine of them all the time. Alas. I miss four of them year round. We had a good long lunch and playtime all around the tree.

They're growing up so fast.
