If you haven’t been to “Painting With a Twist” in Georgetown, Texas, you haven’t lived!
Even if you think you aren’t an artist…like you think youreally have NO art talent…you could be wrong. We joined with a group of friends to experience these “art classes”. Well, I don’t know if what we did is a true art class. They guide you through a specific formula on how to paint the same chosen picture. Hmmm. I’m not sure that pure talent is involved. But, maybe.
All I know is our husbands thought we were hiding some hidden talent they knew nothing about. Boy, did we fool them!
It really doesn’t matter that much because we ALL had so much fun. We had no idea we were capable of painting a really cool picture that we might be able to actually hang on our wall. I guess only some of us hung them on our wall. Ok…maybe one of us hung it up.
But, we don’t care if our paintings were “wall worthy” or not. Our instructor gave us very fun, specific instructions, turned us all into mini-artists, and sent us away having had an awesome time! We were all so pleased with our work and simply loved the group interactions. We will do it again. That is for sure. If you want to come with us next time, just email us or call us. We’ll put you on our list for next time!
Let us know if you’ve done this before and what painting you painted. Better yet, post your painting on our Facebook page! We’d love to see it!

In a constant effort to keep abreast of what is available in residential developments in our vicinity, we try to take field trips to visit new communities. One of our teammates, Angie Moore, recently sold a beautiful new inventory home in Santa Rita Ranch. So, with coffee cups in hand, off we went to get a better look at this amazing place to live.
We were most pleasantly surprised to visit with the people in charge of the development, visit the amenities, and get to know their event planner for the subdivision. You must take a moment to look through some of the photos we took while on-site. It was so exciting to know how many events they have and what a great effort they make to be sure their Buyers/Residents sustain a lifestyle of community…a place where people know each other and care about each other and are there for each other. This development makes every effort to assure that. In fact, they thrive on it. And it is working!
The amazing amenity center in Santa Rita Ranch provides a large party room, a large conference room, a lap pool, a pool with giant slides, and a kiddie pool with colorful fountains. There is also an outdoor fireplace with a stone patio area and comfy chairs. Sit by the fire in the winter, drink your wine, read a book. In the summer? The sky is the limit. Swim, slide, sit under the fountains, have a picnic, or watch the kids play on the play scape. The entire perimeter is fenced with 8 foot wrought iron fence to assure safety for the kiddos.
There are 5 reputable builders in this development who build homes from the $200s to the $700s. The builders are (in no particular order): Castlerock, David Weekly, Pulte, Grand Haven, Westin, Wilshire, Scott Felder, and Highland Homes. All of these builders are building great homes in Santa Rita Ranch.
This is a master planned community with homes in the prestigious Liberty Hill AND Georgetown School Districts. Grocery shopping, restaurants, and shopping are within minutes. You get the best of both worlds…live in the hill country and enjoy the views…and drive a short distance to great places to dine and shop.
We felt this development was a treat. We know you will, too. Check them out at www.santaritaranchaustin.com. Then, call us and we’ll happily give you a tour. We know everything we need to know to help you buy a great home here. And YES we do represent our Buyers with new construction. We negotiate for you and guide you through the entire process. For this professional representation, you pay us nothing. Our commission comes from the Seller’s proceeds….not yours!
Well…WE have. True to form, Hopdoddy’s serves one of the finest, juiciest burgers in Central Texas. We might just have to call their hamburgers “decadent”. We also need to tell you that you might have to wait in line to get one, but it is well worth the wait. (and the weight!) Everyone in line is dreaming about the reward just the same as you. For the most fun experience, sit at the bar to enjoy your meal. It is a fun experience to watch the bartenders throw their incredible margaritas together….and their handmade milkshakes.
Hopdoddy’s Burger Bar serves the freshest available, all natural ingredients. Their beef comes from “Humanly Raised Cows” which are never given growth hormones or antibiotics. All of their beef is Kobe beef ground in-house so it is as fresh as possible. My Dad used the say the secret to a great cook is using quality, FRESH ingredients…even if that means going to the grocery store or the local farmer’s market every single day. I have found that to be incredibly true and it seems that might be one of the secrets to Hopdoddy’s success. All we know is….they are darn good!
You can’t beat a hamburger with a bun made from scratch and baked fresh all day every day. I have to admit I make a pretty mean burger myself. The quality of the beef and the quality of the bun go hand in hand. If you have one or the other as substandard, you end up with a mediocre burger. No mediocrisy at Hopdoddy’s. That is for SURE!
Try the Truffle Fries…just try them. All of their french fries are hand cut Kennebec potatoes. Or, if you like, try the french fries with Hopdoddy’s handmade chile con queso on top. Mmmm mmmm.
I’d like to tell you they have fabulous salads, too. But, seriously, do you go to a burger bar to have salad? They look great….really they do. But, I just can’t go to Hopdoddy’s for a salad!
Check it out…You will NOT be disappointed! And let us know with comments below if you agree. We’d love to hear from you!
Oh my gosh…it has been SUCH a busy March that we haven’t taken the time to blog. But, there are so many things we want to share with you that we are going to go blog crazy! So, let’s do this in chronological order and tell you what’s going on with our team!
First, we want to say thank you for helping us have so much fun at the First Friday event in early March. We had such a great turnout. Our clients who have become our friends came, our friends, our families, the other agents in our office, and our owners of Century 21 HS came to the party. We had lots of libations and tasty cake pops made by Sugar Momma’s. What’s wine without cheese and crackers and grapes? So, we had to serve that, too.
Everyone helped and it was a fun event. Know what? We LOVE treating others. Everyone has to let their hair down every now and then. So, we did and you did and we appreciate it.
Don’t worry….we’ll do this again soon. And again….thanks! We so appreciate you!
