brantastic: lunch with connie and bret, who traveled almost three hours to come see us. ❀ we had a wonderful time!
brantastic: what even........i didn't set out to capture this particular moment, but it does include the most hilariously nonsensical (to my eyes) slide ever, so i'm pretty happy about it. πŸ˜‚ fp did a fantastic job and i'm super proud of him! ❀

brantastic: at halley's suggestion, we ate our first austin meal at micklethwait craft meats. this brisket frito pie is just a small part of what we ordered, but it may have been the prettiest. food here was ridiculously good.
