Weekend fun!

This weekend we decided to head to Dallas for the day on Saturday. I have never been to Dallas and although we were only there for a few hours I really loved it! It is like an oversized Charlotte, and for those of you that know me well, know how much I love Charlotte!! There are two big malls there but we only went to one while we were there. We didn't realize that yesterday was the Texas vs. Oklahoma game and it is played in Dallas. There was tons of traffic and we were afraid that we would get stuck in it so we headed home early afternoon. On our way to Dallas, we passed this truck. This is very common here in Texas.

Yep. Those are pigs. . . 

Most of the drive from Waco to Dallas is pretty boring. Mostly farm land and not much to see. When I saw this, I knew we were there!! 

THE BIG D!!!!!!! (and I do mean Dallas!) -Grant 

We went to lots of stores. . They had every store you could imagine!! It was a little rich for my blood, but I just pretended I had lots of money yesterday :-) I did get my very first pair of TOMS. I have been wanting some for a while and finally got them yesterday! I am very excited. 

The mall was four stories and even had an ice skating rink on the first level. Yes, I said ice skating rink.. There were kids everywhere having a great time! 

Today the weather was beautiful here in Waco. We went to Cameron Park this morning for a hike/walk and then headed over to the Baylor campus to walk around.

 The bears were out having a snack so I got a few pictures of them. They really are so cute! 

We then walked over to see where Grant's new office will be. They are renovating one of the old buildings on campus and he will be moving next year. There were not many people around us and it was very quiet. I heard someone walking behind us so I turned around and guess who it was?!? Britney Griner!!! For those of you that don't know who that is, she is the star of the women's basketball team. This is now the second time we have seen here on campus. I thought it was so neat and I thought about going over to ask for a picture with her, but just snapped one as she walked by instead :-) 

And of course, I can't write a post without including our precious girl!! She really wanted some of my burger last night. And of course, I gave in!! 

Have a good week!!! 

 Clare, are you impressed??!! Two posts in one week!!! Good luck tomorrow! I will be thinking about you and am so excited for you! xoxoxox
