Texas

Lilly and I got to go to Dallas to visit my sister Paige and her family. WE HAD A BLAST! The Barrons really know how to have a good time.

Here's a list of some of the things that we got to do or that happened while we were there.

-touring the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (The place where they make money. You can't take pictures inside.)


-touring Log Cabin Village






-picnicking in the park

-visiting the Botanic Gardens





-watching the Long Horn Stampede



-stockyard museum


-playing Tag on the grass


-pony rides




-pizza


-rodeo


ALL OF THE ABOVE WAS IN ONE DAY! Man were we tired by the end. It was SO fun!


The Barrons have a really big yard with lots of animals.(goats, chickens, cats, fish, turtles, and a donkey) The rest of these activities happened in their back yard.

-swimming

-fishing



-hunting for eggs

-three new baby goats were born





-swings



Thank you Tag, Paige, Quincey, Briggs, Boston, Piper, and Sarger for showing us such a great time. It was a dream come true!

Playing tag with Tag? Is he extra good at it?
(That's probably an old joke and not funny anymore, huh?)

Your blog makes me miss you so much! Also, didn't know your sister moved to TX. And Lilly is NINE?!? Seriously...nine? How is that possible? One last thing: I didn't know Nelly was a nickname for Helen! Did you know that if Jackson was a girl he was going to be Nelly?

Me and Mr. P... said...
