Dallas for two

Dan and I were able to go on a fun trip to Dallas all by ourselves (no kids). We felt like such grown-ups getting to make decisions all by ourselves about where we wanted to eat and what we wanted to do. First off we headed to the Utah (go Utes) VS. TCU football game.


We stayed at the same hotel as the team and were able to see lots of players and lots of coaching staff. We also bummed a ride on the faculty bus over to the game and sat right by Coach Whittingham's wife. The bus even got a police escort to the game! We had great seats right by all the parents of players and after the game they were nice enough to introduce us to lots of the team and even give us a ride back to our hotel. We love the Utes!

After the fun game, which the Utes won, we headed into downtown Dallas. We saw Texas School Book Depository where JFK was shot.

Whoa! I'm in the car with JFK and Jackie!

Here is Dan in front of the Grassy Knoll.

We also had tons and tons of yummy Tex-Mex. We really miss yummy Mexican food and it was so great to eat real Tex-Mex almost every meal while we were there.

A BIG thanks to Mandy and Eddie for watching our kids for four days while we were gone! We owe you big time thank you so much we had so much fun and our kids had so much fun with you.
