Dallas/Ft Worth, yippe ki yay!



We started our Dallas visit with a trip to the 6th floor museum. Located on the floor of the warehouse where Lee Harvey Oswald shot JFK, this museum was a great place to learn all about JFK. We moseyed around downtown a bit more before heading to the Hopkins’ house.  (As most people know, Dallas is famous for many things and one of those things is the Hopkins Family). It was Cindy’s birthday, so we went out to celebrate with the fam.  We hadn't seen them since Matt's 29th Birthday Bash and it was so wonderful to catch up, share some laughs and drink some margaritas.  They were also kind enough to let us spend a night (and use their washer/dryer - much needed after all the camping!).


Aren’t those kids cute?

The next day we explored the Dallas Arboretum. One of the most beautiful gardens I have ever seen. We loved all the water features and bamboo.  It was also the Dallas Blooms Festival (Or was it Dallas in Bloom?) so most of the garden was blooming!























That afternoon we headed to Ft Worth to meet a Lewis family friend: Stephanie Anderson. We cooked a yummy meal and then headed downstairs to the bars. Dallas/Ft Worth was a bit of a whirlwind visit, but it was great seeing all these friends.
