Big Tex

For Christmas my sister and her husband gave us a trip down to see them and their new house in Dallas. We planned the trip for President's Day weekend which subsequently was also when Dallas decided to have the largest snow storm in the history of Texas. It never snows but mother nature decided the weekend when we were going would be a good one to blizzard. Our flight was canceled on Thursday night but we went stand-by all day Friday and finally made it out.

I forgot to take pictures of what we did, but a lot of them would be of us eating. We tried to fit in all of our favorites and got in some of the best BBQ (Riscky's) and Southern Cookin' (Mac's Bar and Grill). I could have literally drank their BBQ sauce.

Superman and Batman came out to defeat their arch nemesis...We went to the stockyards and the zoo and saw these beauties.On Saturday my other sister and her family surprised us by coming down from Lubbock and throwing a surprise baby shower. This baby is already so spoiled. Matt's been practicing burping the baby.For Valentine's Day we all made Valentine's sacks and wrote love notes to each other. Matt's sack was my favorite.We had such a great time and we hope we can make it back down again soon. Thanks again Em and Rus, we love you!

You two are so much fun! You crack me up! :) And you thought you could get away from the cold, but at least you brought spring back here to Utah.

We are so ready for spring!
