Mini vacation to Fredericksburg!

                                          
This past week we were so blessed to have my parents stay with the kids while Brent and I went to Fredericksburg.  This was part of my birthday present back in December but we wanted to wait for better weather and shopping conditions.  :)  We ate at a cool brewery for lunch the first day, Brent had cheddar-ale soup.  So yummy!

 And what day is complete without a visit to the local icecream/candy store?  Definitely a highlight.
 On Main Street....tons of cute little stores.  I found some really neat things for our new decorating scheme.
 The antique stores were really neat as well.  This is a huge antique store that had only old books in the basement.
 Our cute little room.  We stayed at Haven Inn in Comfort, TX just about 30 minutes outside Fredericksburg.
 This was some of the best pizza I have ever had.  It was just a little hole in the wall place with only out door seating.  It was called Fredericksburg Pizza Kitchen.  Going back here for sure.
 On the deck in the morning...great view, great coffee, great time to relax!
 View of the front of the B&B...
 Again, some of the best food ever!  Man, those country women can cook!!
 We went to the Settler's Museum.  This was called a "Sunday House" because the early farmers only came in town on the weekend to get supplies and go to church.  They needed a small place to stay while in town, thus the Sunday Houses were established.

 Cute little school house...reminded me of Anne of Green Gables.  :)



 Old barber shop...Brent is laughing at the maniquin.  We have something of a history with those...ask us sometime.  :)
 Replica of the oldest city building in Frederickburg.  It was originally in the middle of Main Street and was used as the town hall, church, and school.
 Here is an old pic of the above building....this was the towns 50th year parade and celebration.
 Behind the B&B.  This is the Guadalupe River.
