Off to Dallas we go!

This past weekend Ray and I went to Dallas. We left Friday and drove down to Texarkana to drop the kids off at my parents house and then we kept going on to Dallas. We had a wonderful time! Ray had made plans for us to do events the entire weekend. First he planned for us to stay at Hotel ZaZa which is located in uptown Dallas. Friday night we arrived into town, we had time to refresh, unpack and go downstairs for drinks and dinner. After a fabulous dinner we went to House of Blues and watched Blue October perform. We weren't familiar with many of the songs, but the show was amazing, that band is very talented. After the concert we went back to the hotel for some drinks and a night together to sleep in late!! We were thinking we might actually sleep in but I still woke up at around 7:30 am. So we got ready and set off to shop. We decided to spend the morning shopping, and then Ray wanted to go to the Boat show to look at the boats. After the boat show we went back to the hotel to enjoy a couples massage (which was much needed), and then after went to the room to get ready for a night of sushi (my favorite)! drinks and music. We ended up at the Ritz drinking drinks and have great conversation with some couples that we met while we were there. They asked to come to there place for some drinks and to see there view of Dallas. Ray nor I had ever seen a view like we saw from there condo, it was amazing! We did not leave until 3:30! We were exhausted but it was well worth it! The next day we met up with some friends of Ray's from High School for lunch and then set out for nana and papa's house to pick up the kids!
The kids had a wonderful time - we are so greatful to my parents and my brother David for watching them over the weekend! We missed them so much - but as you all know all parents need a little time for themselves! Here are some pictures from the weekend that my mom took of David and Evan in the pool and of Evan's new golf club set. He has not put them down! All he runs around and says is golf ball, golf club and golf cart! Enjoy the pics!
God Bless, hope you all had a great weekend!
