McKinney Falls State Park Austin, TX

Week 1 is now under our belts. After forgetting our crock pot on at our brick home, discovering a leaking toilet THEN a leaking sink in our RV and retrieving a few forgotten items, we began to settle in. We are so fortunate that Greg is good at making repairs because if we have to take our RV in, it means we would be without our home!

We spent the week getting back in the groove of homeschooling and visiting with a few more friends before heading out. We had a wonderful time!

Our kids got a Wii game console for Christmas and had not yet been able to play with it because we did not have the right cord at our brick home. It is now set up in the trailer and for those who were wondering... Yes! There is actually enough room to play the Wii in an RV!

The kids made some new friends, Harrison and Cheyenne, at the campsite next to us. They played together every waking moment that either group was not doing school. They were very sweet kids, especially Cheyenne who made Jordan and I rainbow loom bracelets after finding out what our favorite colors are!

The kids found this in the brush near us and rushed to show me. I, of course, took a quick glance around and then rushed the other way!!

The falls were flowing nicely this visit!

The park has a nice visitor center with some very fun things for the kids to check out. Unfortunately, it is still closed due to being flooded during the Halloween floods. I still have a hard time imagining the water up that high!

I think this is one of the prettiest areas of the park where the bike trail winds around underneath the canopy of the trees and through the picnic areas. Sadly, it too has been affected by the floods with downed trees all around.

Next stop: Kingsville, TX!
