Living La Vida Lasley: Dallas

Last weekend Darren and I decided to head to Dallas to see Marnie and the kids. We planned on heading out of town after getting off of work on Friday and after we dropped off the dogs at my parents house. Well...that was the plan at least. Marnie text Friday morning and told me that Presley REALLY wanted me to bring the dogs. Who could turn down such a precious 6 year old. So after work I went and packed up the dogs and we headed out of town. Normally when the dogs go on car rides they sit in my lap, I was not sure that I could handle 3 hours of that so I put them in their crate in the back.

We were honestly SHOCKED by how good they were. Gidget whined for a little bit but then the both fell asleep and stayed back there the entire time! Such good babies!

When we got to the house Marnie had to give us the tour! They just moved into their house in January and it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! I am so happy that they found such a wonderful home that is so perfect for them. After the tour we all settled into be to get a good nights rest for the long day of playing that we would have ahead of us.

This is what I walked out of the shower to Saturday morning... (a little blurry)

We all got ready Saturday morning and hit the town. Their house is so perfect because it is WALKING DISTANCE from everything. So we walked over to the plaza and had some lunch. After of course we had to hit up the ice cream shop. Here are the kids playing on the chalk board.

Later that afternoon we went home and got ready for a night on the patio. Everyone got their swim gear on and we prepared some pizza. Their house has and AMAZING brick oven on the patio so we had HOMEMADE pizza...basically like the Italians do it :)

I started by kneading the dough...
