Fast and Furious...

Alright, well, not so furious, but this week has gone by fast! Mostly because we made a spontaneous trip to Dallas. Our friends the Neeley's were there visiting family for Thanksgiving and Dustin needed to go up to Dallas for work, so we jumped on the opportunity. Dustin's boss encouraged him to take us (me and the kids) and go to a resort the next time he had to go on a marketing trip, and having our friends there to entertain me and the boys was the perfect way to do it!We stayed at the Wolf Creek Lodge in Grapevine, TX. It was very family friendly. The coolest thing was their indoor water park. We were so glad that the Neeley's got guest passes and spent a morning swimming with us. Carson had a blast- he even went down the kiddie slides and LOVED them. Dustin never did get to play in the water, because he was working both days that we were there. But we did get to go to dinner with Sheri and Derek (no kids, except for little Jensen) which was great. We wished that we could have squeezed in a game of Cities and Knights, but by the time we got done with dinner our kids were exhausted and we decided to be good parents and put them to bed. It really was too short of a visit, but since they live far away in Omaha, NE, we were sure glad we took the opportunity to see them (even if we did have to spend a LOT of time driving to do so - darn holiday traffic!)

And wouldn't you know, even though I carried my camera around the whole time, I never took a single picture!

Otherwise, our week was great. We had a good (and yummy) Thanksgiving and we were brave enough to venture out on Black Friday (to Costco because I needed diapers). I even started getting Christmas up at our house. Now...on to the next crazy 3 weeks.
