My Dallas Adventure

 My main reason to go to Texas was to help Jeff and Amy
 
 after this cute  little person joined their family

But they really spoiled me.
First stop on the way home  from the airport
...  La Madeleine's for a yummy lunch.

During my week there I spent a lot of time with royalty

Princess Stella came with me from Aunt Janet's house.
She and Presley became good friends.
If Stella wasn't getting a wardrobe change, she was playing hide and seek.
Sometimes Stella would hide
Sometimes Presley would hide.
Sometime they would just be in disguise.

Stella even jumped on the trampoline with us.
But she did have to stay home when Presley and I went to the pool.

One day...
 
while Emersyn was getting her newborn photos
We made new friends at the library
 
 Kissed a couple of frogs
 
Hide behind a tree
And then just waited....But it was worth it
We got to go to Pei Wei's for lunch.

'
During nap times I was able to
  stitched up a couple new blankets from
Amy's fabric stash.  And did a little mending.

 Sunday was Amy's birthday
So we made her a cake
with homemade fondant.
Then she got to decorate it herself.


She did have help blowing out the candles.

Jeff  grilled the perfect steak for the occasion
(He was out to usurp the title from Chad
..who had also grilled the best steak I had ever eaten).
The winner is....too soon to tell. 
 I call for a re-match.

Jeff had Monday off
So to continue the birthday celebration
we went out to a little quaint diner called Spoons for breakfast.
...we got there in time for lunch.
We topped our meal off with a dessert waffle
since we were celebrating Amy getting older.

Tuesday 
 I was scheduled to fly home 
and Jeff had the day off
 (he did work Saturday and he is a dentist).
 so he took us out to lunch at a great Mexican restaurant,
 Christina's.  
(Killing a couple of hours at the mall's indoor play area)

  I did cook a few time 
But they really did spoiled me
 when I was suppose to be spoiling them.
Thanks for the good time.
