Dallas Getaway

Jeff finally finished his micro course last week so we took off for a much needed family weekend getaway. You will be seeing this cheesy smile a lot. It's how Annabelle smiles for the camera when we say "smile!"

Yes here it is again. On our way into Dallas we did some shopping at the Tanger Outlets and then we went to dinner.

After dinner we walked around White Rock Lake Park outside downtown Dallas.

Annabelle liked throwing sticks in the water.

The next morning we took Annabelle swimming in the pool at our hotel. It was too chilly for Jeff and I but after thinking it over in those chubby legs...

she decided she loved it!

Then Jeff and I took turns going through the Dallas Temple. It was sooo nice to spend a few days together with our little family and not have Jeff do any studying!

After the temple we went to the Holocaust museum in Dallas. Then we walked around downtown and grabbed some dinner.

We then headed to Waco, TX to visit Jeff's brother and his wife. Here are my two cute BYU fans.

We all went to lunch in Austin and then Jeff, his two brothers, and his Dad went to the BYU football game. We met up with their old foreign exchange student from Japan for lunch.

The guys were a little bummed they lost but I'm sure they still had fun. Crystal, Annabelle, and I went shopping while they went to the game and then the girls headed back to the house.

Giving the cheesy smile to Aunt Crystal. Annabelle was busting out some classic breakdance moves. We haven't had time to put the video together yet but we will be posting that shortly.

Hanging with Uncle Todd and watching videos of herself.

Having a nice drink with Aunt Crystal.

Here's that cute cheesy smile again!

And again.

Sometimes in the morning she watches the "Little Rascals" in our bed. She laughs at the part when Alfalfa sits on a whoopee cushion and then she tries to imitate the tooting sound. She came up with this all on her own which is hilarious.
