It was the best of times, it was the Wurst of times

This past weekend we went to New Braunfels for Wurstfest.

It was so much fun and a much needed break!

Here is our gang. We are so blessed by our Galveston group of friends.

There is more people to the group but some couldn't come.

I'm so thankful for each of our friends and hope despite moves and life changes coming up, we stay connected in each others lives!

The weekend was so nice because:

a) We got cash out so we didn't worry about money at all and we blew a lot! Take that monthly budget! 

b) we ate and ate and ate some more!

c) we were spoiled by the Polk's family

d) New Braunfels is pretty awesome (our friend Kyle would be very happy to hear that! I feel his goal for the weekend was to convince us to move there.)

Here was our 2nd food we ate:

Potato Pancakes with applesauce

And mine included gobs of powdered sugar on top!:)

It was fun watching them fry the pancakes. It must be so hot back there.

They were so yummy!

Before the pancakes, came a pork chop on a stick and fried pickles.

I will always eat fried pickles, anywhere anytime.

If fact, how 'bout now?!?

Here is us eating the pancakes. We also got to hear a yodeler, very impressive, and snagged a Christmas ornament to remember the trip by.

Wurstfest ended with some German chocolate pie- yummy!

You know the rest of the weekend was spent playing games, watching football, and discovering THE coffee table at Pottery Barn.

It was wonderful. Great friends, yummy food, and away from Galveston.

I've decided we need to do these trips monthly. 

We will have to go back again.

I hope you get to experience some Wurst times too- get the potato pancakes and the fried pickles!
