Dallas Vaca

August 4-6, 2017

We didn’t get all the way to the beach with a newborn this year, but wanted to do something fun with Mollie before school started…. so to Dallas we went.

It was a hectic time for Nate.  He went to help move Mamaw and Papaw into an assisted living home and came back all in one day, so the next day he could take his little family to Dallas for some fun.  I am so proud of him for always putting his family first.

This was Reed’s first vacation at 3 months old.

We got to break in our new car and enjoy all the extra room.  The first night we went to the Rainforest Cafe and Mollie picked out a new rainbow giraffe she promptly named, Twilight.  Reed slept through the whole dinner… even during the “rain storms” when all the animals came to life.

Of course, Mollie loved the hotel.  She loves when she gets her own bed to set up with her 20 stuffed animals she insists on bringing….and of course, she loves to swim.

The next day we went to Lego Land.  It was full of fun… and full of people.  I took a lot of pictures and everyone’s favorite thing was the 3D movie and R2D2.

More family fun in the hotel room:

The next day we went to the aquarium.  It was so fun!  They gave Mollie a little book to collect stamps at every new exhibit and she loved that!  We rolled right along and they even made me walk across a glass floor… with sharks underneath.  Yikes.

And after one more night, we loaded up and came home.  It was a fun time for sure!
