January 29, 2012 - The Egg & I

Breakfast at The Egg & I

I ended up waking up and taking my father to the airport. He came out to help support the family. It was really nice to see him and I was really glad that he was able to meet Diva at Christmas. After the airport we went to brunch with Dean and the Iowa Family. I had never heard of this place before but Dean said that him and Diva went there before. I got the french toast special, which was essentially eggs and sausage between french toast. I ended up eating half of this. I wanted to eat more because it was so delicious, but regretted even eating half of it because I was beyond full after.

Although not the best picture, here is proof of the bird again the next day.

Dinner

Later that day we met up with some of Dean's extended family in Houston for a family dinner. They do a family dinner ever single weekend and I love it. I have always wanted to have something like that.  Perhaps someday we can. 

They were serving make your own fajitas. This was a spectacular dinner, especially with those jalapeno poppers. Mmm.

The whole family shared even more stories about Diva, and how she affected each and everyone of them, and how she even helped several of their friends. It was a very therapeutic dinner.

After the dinner, Mike and I headed back to Austin for a long yet mostly uneventful drive home. We did end up hitting something on the side of the road, but no flat tire this time. We were paranoid though and stopped and made sure.
