Birthday weekend in Dallas

Another weekend away.  We decided after our last fun weekend in Dallas that we definitely wanted to do it again.  So we found a hotel and a weekend and a reason, my birthday!  This time we just went up Saturday morning and stayed overnight.  It wasn't as long of a visit but it also wasn't as cold and we got in some fun outdoor time.

1st stop: Lunch at Corner Bakery and a quick walk around the mall waiting for the sun to come out.

2nd stop: Race around the park. I win!
We visited this park back in when Kyle did a research month at SMU.
(I have no idea when this was...2 years ago, 3, 4??  All those student years blend together!)




Next we headed over to the hotel to check-in and relax before an early (4:00!) dinner.  Afterwards we had a quick dip in the hot tub and jumps in the cool pool, led by Lillian,  Jack and Lillian shared the pull out couch and were asleep within minutes.  Wes had the floor as usual and took his time but I think he was asleep by 9.

The next morning we had breakfast in the room, a few items gathered from Whole Foods the day before.  And Kyle even walked over to Starbucks for coffee for us.  We got up and out by 10:00 in order to make our much needed stop at Trader Joe's (we've become very dependent) and then on to our 2nd park visit.
The hotel was shaped in a triangle with the rooms on the three walls.  The middle had three elevators for the 10 floors and three balconies going to each corner.  It was a little scary especially if Wes or Jack could get their head through the railing.

Too bad we couldn't go for a sail

This boy fell asleep with his legs crossed like this.

Who's the baby of the family?  The one with a pacifier in his mouth at age 3!
He tied it into his toy and truck before falling asleep.
