Our Dallas Vacation

Gabe and I decided that we wanted to go somewhere for a few days at the end of the summer before we headed back to school. We thought about going to the beach, but the drive was just longer than I wanted to do and we couldn't really find anywhere to stay. We decided on going to Dallas where we would be able to do more things and the drive was much shorter. We were going to go to the water park, but it rained at some point everyday that we were there. We took Sadie to the Aquarium and to the Children's Museum. The rest of the time we spent swimming in the hotel pool, eating good food, and a little shopping. It was a great time to be together as a family and a just the relaxing time we needed.
Here we are with the flamingos at the aquarium. They were Sadie's favorite.

Waiting for the IMAX movie to start. Sadie loved seeing all the fish.

Sadie loved the water station with the giant rubber duckies. Gabe said it looks like she is wearing a baptismal gown and baptising the duck.


Sadie loved the elevator at the hotel. She had fun just riding on it everyday, trying to jump, and running out when it stopped.
