Ahh...... sweet, sweet spring break.
The trees and flowers are blooming, the weather is warming, and the kids and mommies and the daddies are off work (or take off work, but what's the difference!)
We had a wonderful week of adventures...and grew together as a family even more:
We parked it up, donned our rain boots, and explored the creek and even passed through the tunnel to the other side. You guys were so intrepid and sloshy-footed as your boots filled with water. The hunt for treasures was very, very productive.
We stayed in the lap of luxury at a La Quinta Hotel (your second hotel ever; which was met with much amazement...WOW a Microwave in the bedroom! WOW AN INDOOR POOL! WOW A BOOK IN THE NIGHTSTAND!)
We explored Sundance Square...
...and even at at a Seafood restaurant where you two decided that you LOVE Mussels Marinara (and at the whole thing!)
We checked out the world-famous Fort Worth Stockyards and were transported back in time to witness a real cattle drive and a real shoot out! And we bought REAL cow-boy hats!
...well a real-enough shoot-out. The cowboys said they were real guns, but fake bullets because they had to "use the same bad guys tomorrow."
And we dined in the world-famous Joe T. Garcia's Tex Mex pavillion extraordinaire:
We returned from the Old West to modern times and did fun stuffs and things with family and friends and together...
...and before we knew it, the flowers had blossomed, the temperature had warmed, and it was time to return to our regularly scheduled lives...a little bit warmer, and a little bit more blossomed due to our fun adventures, road trip, and time together.
