It's Fall Ya'll!

Last weekend we thoroughly enjoyed our Fall Break! We, as in we I mean pretty much my entire family. We decided to load up and go to Dallas. Allen had been planning this for sometime and it was a much needed get away. You see, when you have a large family (like mine) you learn to travel in a pack and we have gotten very good at it.

Headed Out

Our Fall Break started out with a surprise visit to my Grandma Donna and Grandpa Dave's home. They had not seen the girls since their 1st birthday so I thought that it was only appropriate to drop in and love on them for a bit. The girls had a great time there and we loved seeing the girls GG's.

Time with our GG!!!

Loving on our GG Dave

This is a very special picture to me. The following Monday after we left, my grandma found my grandpa Dave unconscious, he has been in a coma state for the last week. At fist we were told that he probably would not make it but as of Friday, the doctor seems a bit more hopeful. We are praying that he opens those eyes and fights like the bull that we know he is. We love him very much, it has been an emotional week for our family. Our trust is in God and we know that his will is what will be. I am just so so so thankful that I got to see him this past weekend and that he was able to see my girls.

Livi and her dancing skills, this girls can dance!

 Londyn was mainly interested in the cat.

Here kitty, kitty...

After we left my grandparents, we went to meet the rest of the gang at Northpark Mall. We had lunch at this incredible South American restaurant. Then we let the girls stretch their legs in a children's library that is located in the mall. They enjoyed the tunnel-like seating. 

Next we headed over to Neiman's Children section. I swear they have some of the cutest clothes. They have this great area set up for children to play in. The girls thoroughly enjoyed their time here, especially at the pink piano. I am so hopeful that my girls will play the piano, it seems as if they are already enjoying it.

My little Livi playing away!

Excuse the hair, it had been a long

 day and you know she pulled those 

pigtails out as quickly as possible.

 Rebel.

I warned you, she is a little ornery!

But I like it!!!

Of course they had to try it out together...

 It looks like Londyn won!

Miss Livia decided to enjoy a sweet treat.

We tend to be a little more lenient on trips.

Cupcake before dinner, why not?

Londyn enjoyed one too, but she prefered

to walk around with her. Picture impossible.

At the Galleria they have the 

greatest children's play area. 

We spent lots of time here!

You see my friends, the key to 

shopping with small ones is...

Let them exude all of their energy then

Shop, Shop, Shop,

Repeat. Easy as pie - yeah, right!

 We found another kid friendly area at

Nordstroms children's department.

These stores are genius for putting

in areas like this. I bought them a pair of

shoes while we were exuding some energy.

1 chair, 2 girls. We make it work.

 Sharing at its finest.

Daddy is getting really great at this!

 Our only Family Pic!!!

What a great break, I can't wait to do it again.

Love You Guys!!!

P.S. Thanks for always helping...
