I just got back from a fun few days in Dallas! Wednesday night, me, Ash, Meredith, and Marla went to see Bon Jovi. It was SUCH a fun concert!!! We went to eat first and then headed for the concert. It was a little crazy getting downtown to the American Airlines Center...at one point we were driving on the trolley tracks and two cops stopped us to let us know :) I told him, "Look, we're just 4 stay at home moms, trying to be cool and go to a Bon Jovi concert....we have no idea how to drive downtown!" One laughed and was helpful getting us back on track (no pun intended) and the other cop didn't think it was so funny. We finally got there, got our seats, and had so much fun! Although, at one point, Ashley did take a little cat nap....how in the world she did it, I don't know :) But she rallied afterwards!
Mom and I took Pearce to see Grandma, or Memaw, as Pearce likes to say :) He was so sweet to her and loved on her and I know Grandma loved see us!
Since Nathan is a big Kindergartner now, I wanted to be sure to go eat lunch with him at school. We surprised him and he was so excited! He was so cute saying hi to all of his little friends.
We all went to the Dallas Arboretum on Friday and it was such a nice cloudy, cool day. Loved it! Nathan was in school, but Ashley was babysitting one of her friend's little boys and Pearce just loved Trevor! We had a picnic and had fun roaming all around and seeing pumpkins EVERYWHERE! Auntie Ashy made this cute little jacket for Pearce...I can't believe she actually sewed it! She has been going over to mom's a lot and has started learning how to sew!
On Saturday, Mom and I took Pearce to the Heard Museum. It's a neat outdoor area with lots of walking trails, sanctuary animals, and they always have some sort of exhibit going on. This time it was "Dinosaurs LIVE!" There were tons of life size dinosaurs that moved and made sounds. Pearce loved walking the trails and seeing all the dinosaurs. There was even a little village of houses you could explore. Pearce loved going from house to house. The last one he went to had all kinds of pots and pans and brooms...he loved playing house!
One of Pearce's favorite things to do at Mama and Papa's house is to go for a "dof dart" ride in Papa's golf cart. They went on several rides while we were there. He loves feeding the ducks....but a lot of the time, Pearce would get a piece of bread and then eat it himself instead of throwing it to the ducks :) We always go to this little bridge to see the fish and two big turtles that live there.
It was another great visit in Dallas....next up...Josh Groban concert in just a few weeks! Mama and Papa, get ready for another visit from us!!
