Dallas Visit

My daughter and I had chatted about me coming to visit her in Dallas this weekend. The trip was a bit up in the air, and then it all came together, so I’m here! Thursday morning left no time for blogging. Now I’ll try for a short one. I’m in bed with Tess right now drinking coffee and playing on our computers looking at recipes on Pinterest, outfits on Pinterest, trying to book a massage today, and enjoying good girly chat too.

I was at the airport by 6:30 pm on Thursday for a 7:30 flight, then I got bumped to the 9:30 flight, that actually took off at 11:30, which landed me in Dallas at 1:07 am. It was a lovely evening at the airport watching the Chiefs lose.

Friday we slept in and it was so nice to have nothing we had to do. After coffee and a lot of nothing, we walked to the grocery store up the street for breakfast and a coffee outside.

After that, we took a 4 mile walk on the Katy Trail with Manuel, Tess’ boyfriend.

Slackers……

 

Then…lunch stop at the Katy Trail Ice House. I love this place. All sorts of people there, some in work clothes, some in work out clothes, lots of dogs and a great view of the trail. Cold Beer too.

After a long afternoon of chatting outside, we headed home for a quiet night.

We made pizza’s and salad at home, and watched the Royals lose in extra innings. It’s been a disappointing sports weekend.

Today? We don’t feel like doing anything, and it’s kinda nice.

Here are yesterday’s eats…..

 

Breakfast – 3 PPV

Fruit and Yogurt and a Tall Nonfat Latte outside at the grocery store.
