catching up...our Thanksgiving trip


Well yes it has been a while!  Lots to catch up on...so we'll start with our trip to Dallas for Thanksgiving.  Of course my parents are there, and we love going down there for Thanksgiving...the shopping, eating, staying up late playing games, eating more, and shopping even more!  We had a blast and well probably gained a few pounds for the winter ha :)

Since we just hang around in our pj's most of the time while playing games and eating...I refrained from picture taking.  But here's a few pics of the kiddos playing at their new playground in the subdivision...it's quite nice and they had a blast!  From the time they woke up every morning, all they wanted to do was go to that playground.

Fun times! 

 

We had more fun in later in the week.  Grapevine, TX has a North Pole Express (similar to the Polar Express in Branson), so we of course had to try it out while we were there.  It was pretty fun; however, I will go back at night if we do it again.  The kids enjoyed it and it was worth the money I suppose, but we'll have to try out the Branson version one of these days.  Here are a few pics from our adventure...

We have our tickets...
