Spring Break Part 2: Dallas

After our time in Houston, we flew up to Dallas to visit Grandma and Summer. Maddie opened a bunch of early birthday presents. What a lucky girl!


Maddie was a little more interested in the beautiful wrapping than what was inside. Summer always wraps everything so nicely!
Later that day, we all took B to the park. Summer, Maddie and Grandma all swung on the swings together ... and yes, Summer did fit in the baby swing! :)
Maddie had a fun time running around with B and Summer. Daddy and I had a nice time just sitting and watching. Running after a toddler can really take it out of you. It was nice to have a little break!
The next day, Maddie put on ONE of her new dresses and we went to the botanical gardens in Dallas. All the tulips and daffodils were out. They were beautiful!


Both Maddie and Gaga were not all that into the flowers. Meh.
Maddie had fun, though, walking around with everyone.
Ahhh ... back in the Great State of Texas.



We attempted a family photo ... no go.
Maddie had so much fun at the park with her Grandma and Summer.
We went and saw a model of an old Texas village. We all agreed that AC and indoor plumbing are two of the greatest advanced ... ever!

Maddie took her new shoes off and wandered through the grass.
Then ... wait a minute ... what is that? Maddie took off squealing and running ... so excited to see a ....
... tractor. Seriously! She climbed up in her beautiful dress ...
... and yelled vroom vroom!


Her father has never been so proud.

Finally, a smile.

Maddie and Grandma posed for a shot. Too cute!

Later that day, we headed over to Grandpa and Grandma Susan's house to play in the sun. Boy that Texas sun was warm. Maddie and Grandma Susan did her bunny's hair with some new toys.




Then Gaga and Grandpa joined in on the fun too. They loved doing dolly hair. Grandpa is very experienced at it thanks to Summer!
