We had a great weekend. For this trip we went with my parents and Kelsey and Micah. God is so good...He worked it out so that Stephanie and Caleb were in Dallas at the same time! The girls were so excited to have Stephanie, Caleb, Micah and Kelsey all with them at the same time. It was so fun!
We took advantage of being in Dallas and took the girls to the American Girl store. Oh.my.stars!! It was amazing. The girls were overwhelmed but had a great time! The big girls picked out bags to carry their dolls (I regret to note that I forgot and left their dolls at home. Mom fail!). Ellie also got a journal and Mollie picked out new glasses for her doll. Annie got accessories for her Bitty Baby. They all three had a great time. After our visit to baby doll wonderland, we crossed the street and walked around the Galleria. AHHH! I was in heaven. So fun!!
While we were shopping, my dad took the guys (Brian, Micah and Caleb) out to eat and to drive around a bit. They did the dad tour of SMU. They all had a great afternoon. After relaxing back at the hotel, we headed to El Fenix (YUMMO!) for dinner with my dad's sister and her family. It was so great to see them.
On Sunday, we headed over to my aunt's house to celebrate Grandpa's 90th birthday! It was so fun to have our entire family together. My cousin Chris wasn't there. He recently started a new job and wasn't able to come home. However, all my other cousins (4 guys and 1 girl) were all home. We had a great time.
Annie loved the cupcakes.

My aunt is always so sweet and has something fun for the girls. They loved playing with the chalk she bought for them.
They were serious about their art.
Kelsey, Mollie and Ellie
Ellie and Stephanie...Ellie was especially glad to see Stephanie and Caleb. She has the most sensitive spirit when it comes to family who don't live close to us.

Some things never change! :)We missed Josh, Mandy, Noah and Sam. They weren't able to go with us. Maybe next time! :)
It was so great to be a family. We are rarely all together. It's times like these that make me miss my grandma. I know she would have LOVED to see the girls and to play with my cousin's little boy.
