Dallas, Texas!!

Mallory and I got to spend an entire week in Dallas visiting Lindsey and Ryan (and their families of course). Mom was also there as well as Emily and little Cody bear. It was a little tricky to plan around  five kids and nap schedules but we were able to make a lot of memories!

Little Reagan was a sweet little cousin who let us invade her space and her toys. She was so sweet giving hugs--though on occasion the two had their differences. 


We went to several really fun parks. Mallory and Reagan just love to swing while Bryant and Derrick run around and climb on anything and everything. The Dallas sun and humidity was new for us so poor Mallory was always a clammy little thing. 


Derrick wasn't always sure about Mallory--she has yet to learn to respect others space and things. 


We also explored the Dallas Arboretum which was beautiful and so fun for the kids. They had gorgeous gardens with cherry blossoms and tulips galore. They also have a fantastic kids garden with so many play sets and science experiments for all ages. 




The kids garden had a tree house that had a net to climb around on--Mallory isn't quite convinced of how much fun it is. 



This is also part of the kids garden--a preschool play area. Mallory loves to play with water! 


We went for great walks in the warm evenings. Mallory couldn't get enough of this little push along car. I think we'll have to buy her one now! 


Bryant is a sweet little boy who is full of loves and hugs. He was so full of fun wanting to slide, swing, ride his scooter, and tryke. He even shared his toys with us and built us amazing spaceships out of blocks. 


Like I said before we went to many parks and Dallas is so full of great ones. This park is right down town. If the sun had been out the kids would have been running through all the water and mist. 



Reagan is a lover of baths and so is Mallory. They look like a couple of big girls together! 


All in all we had an amazing time playing with our cousins in Dallas! We can't wait for the next visit!
