TEXAS VLOG | exploring Austin, Gruene, Waco (Magnolia), & Dallas!

I was thinking about going to Texas for me and my boyfriend’s 10 year anniversary as well! It’s weird that you guys went there! Does that mean I should go to texas?!!

I have to say this is one of the best videos I have seen it's so much different places to see

I love these style of videos

Please do a Q&A featuring Brandon soon!! I want to ask him, has Allison always been this kind and contagiously joyful of a person? I know y’all have been together for so long, I’m so curious to hear his answer! And even to hear y’all talk about how you’ve seen each other change and grow over the years. You guys are awesome, thank you for being an authentic and beautiful example of a healthy, Christ-centered marriage!!(:

Hands down best Austin vlog I've seen and I've watched a few! Makes me want to add days to our short summer visit. Thank you for all the great tips and ideas.

Such a beautiful vlog!❤️🌟I love that it was your ten years anniversary and you got a beautiful poem🥰how talented🥰✨meant to be❤️

Idk how I just now discovered this vlog since I love watching your travel posts, but I love it!! I'm a Dallas girl born and raised who just moved to NYC last year, so watching this video was very comforting :)

If you're ever back in Texas, I suggest Fredericksburg, which is only about an hour to two hours away from Austin. It's a beautiful part of the Hill Country and has some really cute outdoor spots + wineries.

Just coming back to your channel! Had to immediately pause and say, Woohoo y'all are in my home state. I'm just an hour and 45 minutes away from Austin here in San Antonio 😊 hope you loved it here! Despite the heat 😆

Hi, Allison! Can you please link your gold rings?

I just posted a Texas Vlog on my channel too! Love the content !!

Love this video can’t wait to go back to Austin and discover more gems! Such an awesome city!

Thank you for visiting Austin, please do not move here we're full thank you - an Austin native:)

😍😌

As an Austinite I was so happy to see this video, you truly captured everything in one single road trip, I applaud you for how informative you were on this video.

Oh girl I didn’t know y’all were coming here to Waco

This is the we want to see other Americans...come for a visit then go back to where you live.

just went on a trip to texas and saw so many of the same things you did!!

Didn’t you just love waco! I love living here! So much money here now! ❤️❤️❤️

I LOVE how you came to Texas to see how beautiful and amazing it is! 🇨🇱
Gruene is one of our favorite little getaways and always enjoy going there especially since we’re only about 2 hrs from here. Highly recommend coming during the warmer months & camp along the Guadalupe River!

Hi Allison! I am a huge fan of your channel and long time subscriber. I wanted to bring to your attention the manner in which you address places with "dark histories in the south" AKA places where slavery, crimes against native American, etc occurred (Gruene TX). I know that you're visiting these places as a tourist, but I think that as an influencer who promotes love and happiness, it would be beneficial to go about these places with a certain tone of respect for the events that took place there. No hate at all. I am a native Texas and I loved the video - I just wanted to bring this to your attention as a person of color who may be more aware of these issues so you can also be aware moving forward.

Who is the poet?

Next time stay one night in Fredericksburg tx its wine country in tx soo nice and romantic. Visit 🍑 peach haus while your there.

I love all the recommendations! Definitely looking back on this video if I ever visit Austin. Thank you for the hard work

Im from Austin, grew up going to Gruene, currently going to college in Waco! fun to see home from someone else's point of view.

I am in Austin, Neighbor Coffee is so good. During the first month of the Shut down in 2020 They were going to certain neighborhoods for coffee delivery. They haven't done it since but it was so nice and a fun way to get a fun coffee while being at home. <3 This vlog is so cute! It made me see places I haven't tried too!

Hey, nice trip idea, next time you visit Waco, try going to Cameron Park pretty neat place. On La Salle there are some cute Antique shops. Don’t forget to try Ninfa’s Restaurant before you leave Waco. On your way to Dallas make sure to stop in West, Tx and try a skunk 🦨 egg from Pizza House so good. And don’t forget to try there Kolaches.

I wish I would have watched sooner. You should have visited my hometown of Belton, Texas. It’s just as cute if not cuter than Gruene, Texas. You would have past it on the way to Waco, Texas. If you traveled I-35. I’m definitely going to visit Gruene though . It looks amazing. Another cute town with lots of character and antiques is Salado, Texas. You would have past it as well along the way to Waco. However your trip to Texas was jammed pack full of fun!

I want to visit Texas now that I saw this Vlog!!

Thank you for sharing your Wonderful Visit to my Home Town! Born and Raised in Austin! Barton Springs was so much fun when I was a child attending Summer Camp! Barton Springs was an everyday treat for 2 whole weeks! Tee hee. As I got older Well Barton Springs was just a Treat anytime we wanted to go! I haven’t visited Gruene, Texas since I was a little girl with my Mother and a couple of her girlfriends during the Holidays! Such Sweet & Wonderful Memories! The State Capitol is a Beautiful and Educational place to visit! My Husband actually proposed to me on my Birthday… we were on the second tier by the rotunda 23 years ago admiring the some portrait paintings! We now live in Kyle, Texas … and Yes… The Sunsets are just one of my Favorite events here in Texas! It’s grown so much … Some of the locations you have mention we haven’t had an opportunity to experience yet! But now that I know about them I will put them on our bucket list! Last week We made a wonderful day trip to Waco to visit the Magnolia Silos for the first time and do some shopping! Will definitely make this trip more! Tee hee. I am so Happy you had a wonderful experience here and you are always welcomed back!!!! Oh and Mount Bonnell… Is pronounced Mount Bon-nell with the emphasis or prominence on the Bon… Bon-nell. … Or at least that is how I grew up pronouncing it! Haven’t been there since I was a teenager … many many moons ago! Tee hee. Well… Thank you for sharing your trip with us! It was so nice to see and hear about new places I haven’t even experienced of yet! Tee hee. Ciao from Jacqueline from Texas!

What an awesome trip, thank you for sharing💕. Hubby and I drove our RV from Canada to Texas with our dog. It is absolutely the most friendly state we have ever visited. If you get a chance to go to San Antonio do the Riverwalk. We walked the entire walk with our dog and even got to bring him into 2 restaurants that also had separate dog treat menus. Apparently if you go on the weekend there is live music as well. We were there on a weekday and enjoyed it tremendously. We also stopped in Waco and enjoyed the silos, indulging in the wonderful cupcakes!

They didn’t preserve that church. They literally tore down the original that was located 3 blocks away, actual demo, and then just rebuilt a replica of it. They did use some of the original lumber, but they didn’t move the church.

You missed out if you did not make it to San Antonio...that's the heart of Texas!

Your vlogs always make me hungry, lol. Also you use a lot of fantastically descriptive adjectives for your food experiences. When you said “phenomenal” that was the word I would have said too! Lol.

Did you try the kolaches in West on your way to Dallas?

It's so fun to see you in my LAND, girl!! Also you and Michelle are probably my two most watched channels right now. I love her!!🥰

Lovely vlog... Beautiful poem.

My Birthday is on March the 10th😊. Happy Anniversary to you both💞.

i love your name so pretty and enjoyed the video very well done

So cute! You literally walked right by where I live in Waco! It's so nice to see someone else's view on my city and the surrounding cities!

I absolutely loved this vlog so much and Texas is my home state currently living in Louisiana but eventually I plan to move back to Texas but to the Waco area. My grandparents live there and I just love Waco so much. Hope y'all enjoyed the trip :)

Side note: I absolutely love the authenticity your channel has and how much of your heart you put into any of your content that you create. You're a ray of sunshine!

I went to Waco and Austin this past fall and LOVED it🤍

So glad you got to explore our sweet Texas. There is so much to do here and you encapsulated it so beautifully!!

Allison, you take your joy and pour it into these amazing, inspiring videos. Thank you so much for being a ray of sunshine in my world. Lots of love.

Mt Bonnell is pronounced buh nell (emphasis on nell). Just FYI from a native Texan 😉

Allison, you’re my comfort person

Thank you for a beautiful commentary of my wonderful home state of Texas. It's ironic I haven't seen all the places that you went to, even though I am only a few hours away from there. Life is great and always "big" in Texas!! Thank you again for the beautiful tours.

❤️

Hey! I’m the owner of Trippy Buck! Thank you for the shoutout! I hope some of y’all come by and try out our shop! We grow all the coffee ourselves ;)

Thanks Allison! I had a great time coming along with you on your trip to Texas! 😂 Where are we going next? I can’t wait! 😂
