The kids are on Spring Break this week.
We are spending time at the lake and we are also ...
Spending time visiting colleges.
My twins will be 17 in April and will both be off to college next year.
When I was a kid ... well, all I'm going to say is ... I am doing way more stuff to help get my kids ready to go off to college than our parents ever did for us.
It's a full time job - all the research and preparation.
We visited The University of Texas in Austin on Saturday.
It was a good tour ...
We went with some friends whose daughter is also considering UT.
These girls would fit in well at this well known Texas university!
Well ...
When they grow up ...
Just a little more.
Did you know that UT has about 50,000 students? It is HUGE and it's a beautiful campus!
On Monday, we visited Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas.
The total enrollment at UT is more than the population of the entire city of Georgetown.
Southwestern is a beautiful private liberal arts university and has a total enrollment of about 1300 students.
It is a beautiful old campus and so different than UT.
(It's the home of the Pirates)
Little Billy doesn't care a thing about college right now ....
He's too busy enjoying his Spring Break.
Alexis too ...
Time to play and time to relax.
Lots of time before she has to think about college.
We're going to spend the rest of Spring Break doing as little as possible.
Hope you have a great week.
