We just returned from a lovely spring break getaway in Dallas, Texas, where we visited aunts, uncles, cousins, and of course, Didi, who couldn't miss out on a chance to see her little granddaughter :)
What do you do in Texas in the Spring?
Well, for one thing, go take pictures by the blue bonnets. It's all the rage! (Seriously. There were lines of vehicles illegally parked along the highway while couples and families took pictures.) So, we couldn't pass up this popular and pretty pastime.
Zoë fit right in - a little southern (blue) belle!
Best family picture of the trip. We never did succeed in getting all three of us looking at the camera...
Brooke (Zac's cousin) and her precious little girl Rebecca
Zac's Aunt (Zoë's Auntie) Gloria with her daughter Brooke and granddaughter Rebecca
The happy grandmas!
Didi with Zoë
My little goofball!
Another thing to do in Texas when it is 92 on April 1st is go swimming in your backyard pool. Oh. Yeah. And hang out with more cousins!
Check out those babies in bathing suits! Little Andie, Rebecca and Zoë
Zoë absolutely loved this pool - waterfalls and all
Zoë and Andie "hitting" it off...quite literally :P
Swinging with Hallie
And finally, after surviving tornado chaos, go to the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens. It's gorgeous!
Daddy and his girl

New mommas stick together
Chillin' by the waterwall
Giant spitting frog! Zoë seems a little frightened...
or maybe just not happy about the water sprinkling on her
Lovely sisters, lovely Zoë and lovely Azaleas!
And then there's Zac... :)
There you have it - our trip to Texas and back. What a great time! (You know, besides fighting a nasty virus and watching breaking news about tornadoes and realizing they weren't very far away :s) But really, we had a wonderful time with our loved ones. And now it is time for bed and getting back in the swing of things.
G'night y'all!
