Mini Vacation

Well we just got back from a mini vacation, we took a trip to Dallas which is about 4 hours from us. We left on Tuesday and back today. We didn't go for a reason except to get away from here for a couple of days.

When we got to Dallas on Tuesday, after we ate at Olive Garden (YUM!), we went to our hotel to check in. It was crazy busy! But we had already booked our rooms, (yay!) so we go to our room (Room #313) and the toilet was running. Well Davud couldn't get it to stop running and each time it was flushed it would leak water. So maintance came and had to replace a kit on it, while he was going that we decided to start Bolt. Well one of the speakers in the tv was broken and the maintance man would have to fix that after the toilet. So they decided to move us to another room (Room #432). So after moving rooms and getting settled we didn't go to sleep the first night till around midnight.

On Wednesday we went the Dallas World Aquarium, it was pretty neat but super crowded. There was a sign up that they were expecting 550 school age children from different programs on that day. Plus the rest of the world. (ha! Ha!) We went to the Galleria, which was a very nice mall with a ice skating rink inside of it. We also watched some movies in the hotel. We watched Bolt and Hotel for Dogs, which we had seen in the theatre. We also saw The Tale of Despereaux, and that was super slow and boring. The boys didn't like it at all. But they liked Ratatouille when we saw that, and the Tale of Despereaux was a lot like Ratatouille, but slower. And David and I watched Four Christmases and that was very funny!! We really liked it. I would recommended to anyone that hasn't seen it. And we swam in the hotel pool also. The boys and Samantha loved the swimming, and surprisingly we had the whole pool to ourselves which was awesome!!

None of us wanted to come home. I came up with all kinds of ideas on where we could go next, we could even just stay in Dallas and not come home. But David said no, we had to come home. :( So we are home now.

We are really looking forward to Walt Disney World in Sept!!! David may have to literally drag me home from there. LOL!
