Dallas, Texas

This weekend I went to Dallas with my family. My sister Maddie and her husband are moving there in September so we went to check out some apartments and the city. We were dazzled by the restaurant selection, fancy apartment complexes and a beautiful hotel.




The trip was very fun and we're excited for Maddie and Matt to move to such a cool place!

Favorite moments of the trip...

1. Because they are now charging to check a bag we all decided to take small enough suitcases to carry on. While waiting in the security line for about 5 minutes Pat suddenly realizes that she's missing her suitcase. Sweet Pat isn't used to carrying on her bag and had innocently left it at the check in counter. Luckily no one had noticed yet...
2. We went to get a quick lunch at a place called subs-n-stuff. As we walked in and started to look at the menu we noticed that it literally looked like it was raining back in the kitchen. I guess a water pipe had broken and was causing serious amounts of water to leak. We awkwardly ordered and ate while the employees frantically decided what to do.
3. Maddie's face while people showing us around the apartments kept telling us what a social community it was. (if you know her you'd understand, she's quite anti-social)
4. The bird pooping on Pat's head.
5. Our fabulous hotel.

It was a really fun trip!!
