Dallas trip- last day

On our last day we hung around Highland Village.  We hit up a hobby lobby and a awesome store called 5 Below (where we found tons of souvenirs for everyone back home! 

Mindy used to live in Texas and loved Whataburger so that was a must for lunch! 

After lunch we went back to the house, made thank you card to put all over the car we used, and finished trying to cram everything we bought into our bags! 

It was bitter sweet dropping everyone off at the airport, but I think we were ready to go home and be with our families!  April can't come soon enough when we got to go and see them all again!

I was dropped off at Love Field airport where my southwest flight was delayed for hours, then had the worse turbulence I had ever experienced in my life. My butt left the seat several times, people were screaming, and the flight attendants had to drop to the ground in the middle of the aisles just to hold on.  Flying though storms can be crazy scary-  I was just glad I never blew chunks! haha  I was so happy to finally be off the plane and kiss and hug my 2 favorite boys!!

What a fun filled trip it was, I can't wait for our next one- where should we go next time? We were thinking maybe Seattle or Oregon coast?!

A video of the trip!

Dallas day 4

Sunday- A day for worship and relaxation!  Their church started at 8:30 so we after church I enjoyed a nice long nap! :) 

 My aunts friend let us borrow their suburban for the entire time we were there.  It was so fun to be all together in one car, and not have to worry about the money to rent one!  It sure was a blessing! 

My aunt has THE BEST plates around.  I love all of the different varieties- when I have a house with actual storage I am going to start my own collection!! We also took a nice Sunday stroll around the trails they have by their house!

Sunday is for baking- even if grandmas rolls never rose they were still yummy! I personally think Chelsi's  M&M cookies were the best!

Sunday game night! 

Dallas trip day 3

Our Saturday started off in a splash when we decided to do the polar bear plunge into the freezing cold pool water! 

After a nice warm shower we got ready and went to go see our little cousin at his soccer game (that my uncle coaches!)  On the way there their car died at the gas station so after the game we came to help jump start it! 

After a bathroom and snack break we headed out for more shopping! We hit up what we liked to call he "hooker boot store" where most of the shoes were all under $10!  to bad they don't really carry shoes for those of us with huge feet, but some of us found some steals!  I for one liked walking around and checking out all the awesome shoes!

For lunch we were excited to the out the most unique Mcdonald's... only to find out they had just remodeled it a few years before...

The Dallas temple was so pretty, and it was nice to see some soft green grass (red ant free) haha  We were going to go in but I had been sick all week and I still had crazy nose congestion and couldn't stop coughing and sneezing so we decided it would be best to just go around the outside! 

Up next the Gallaria Dallas Mall-  This thing was 3 stories tall, with hundreds of shops (okay I don't really know how many but I would bet there was that much!)  We had fun shopping for some mother of the bride dresses for my aunt (we can't wait for Ashlee to get married in April!!)

Pretzels for the win!

From pregnancy and sickness crap I was pretty good at spotting all the chairs and couches in all the shops we went to- I did however find a really cute dress for the little miss!  

^^ Dressing room selfi! ^^

The whole night crew- we would ship Nathan off to a friends house all day and my Uncle and Becca would work all day so nights were fun to have everyone together for dinner and games! (oh and lots of popcorn and ice cream!)
