A Taste of Texas

The first weekend in April we were able to take a great vacation to Dallas, TX. Gabe, Evie and I flew out on a Thursday and spent the next 4 days with a big group of our friends for our annual get together. Everyone in our group has kids the same age along with babies on the way! The kids had an awesome time playing together.
We were loving the nice, warm Texas weather! Such a nice change from the snow that welcomed us home as we arrived back home on Monday.

Evie loved the plane rides. She loved "flying in the sky" and going "really fast" on the runway... so much so that she could hardly stand waiting when we loaded to taxi.

One evening we took all the kids to the Wiggly play center to jump and climb as they pleased- Evie LOVED jumping!

On Saturday we visited the Dallas World Aquarium which was amazing! It was like an indoor rainforest. Evie is still talking about the sharks, spiders, flamingos, and the gross snakes!

We spent most of our free time at Michelle's house, letting the kids run free!
