Christmas at the Capitol

Since we live in Austin and Austin is the capitol of Texas, we attended the Capitol tree lighting and caroling this year at the Capitol. It was really COLD! Hutson had fun exploring the Capitol and listening to the music. Unfortunately they didn't light the tree until the end and it was a little too late for us to stay out that long.

Listening to the caroling.

Taking a break inside the Capitol building for a picture.  Their eyes look a little weird because I shot this with my point and shoot and there was terrible red eye.  It was difficult to fix.

Running around and checking everything out in the building.  Did you know the Texas Capitol Building is actually a little taller than the US Capitol building?  Mike frequently reminds me of this.

This was taken where we parked and it also happens to be the parking lot of Mike's work.  He works for the Texas State Teachers Association which is only one block from the Capitol.

My two Texans!
