4th of July, Texas style

Aaron and I went out to visit Lauren and Erik for 4th of July since we weren't sure when we would be another opportunity to see them.  We loaded up the car and headed to Memphis on Thursday night and made the rest of the journey on Friday. (pit stop at Harding! - blog to come)

It was so good to see them again!

Here's a photo journal of our trip. 

The Dallas skyline up ahead.. almost there!

On our first day there, Lauren and Erik took us to a little doughnut place that had kalaches... oh.my.goodness.  We went back every single day for breakfast! 

  

After breakfast, we drove around the city some and took the M-Line trolley to see some sights.  Nothing too exciting, but it was free, so no complaining. :)
 


Found all these cows... they were BLAZING hot.

 Saturday night we headed to the Fort Worth Stockyards for the RODEO! :0




Sunday, we decided it was just way too hot to be wandering around Dallas again, so we hit up Hurricane Harbor, water park at Six Flags, for most of the day... then stopped at Sprinkles for some lovely desserts.

I had never been to an In-n-Out Burger place before... and there was a new one right by their home, so we hit it up.  Pretty yum.



Sunday night, we went to Addison Kaboom Town to see fireworks!




and a little bit of an air show!
