Friday, we watched the game....SFA lost but it was neat to see them on TV and have the announcer talk about SFA and Nacogdoches! That night we had a date night and went to a restaurant RB had been wanting to try, Cuba Libre. It was aw-ight ;) The fish was good and the mojitos were tasty too but not so sure we will be running back anytime soon.
Saturday, we woke up full of energy and took Cha Chi on a nice long walk. We walked down to the Starbucks and around the neighborhood. Cha Chi was so tired he just passed out when we got back. RB still had a bunch of energy and missed working in the yard when we owned the house so he called our friends Alex and Morgan and asked if he could come over and help Alex. We spent the morning over there. I got to play with our Goddaughter and Morgan and I went to a couple garage sales.
RB hard at "work" with MalloryWe stopped for a hamburger at the one and only Keller's. It is so fun to park there and people watch and of course the burgers can not be beat!
That night we had four different things going on but had to pick just one so we choose to go to a friend's house for a crawfish broil. Everyone there went to SFA so it was fun to watch the Texas basketball game there but then just to catch up with everyone. We also played Flip Cup and I must brag that I did awesome! It was a blast and I may have to introduce it at the next family get together! RB was our referee and was too darn funny. For those who do not know what Flip Cup is...
The people in the video (FYI...don't know any of these people just found video on youtube) had way to much beer in their cups and yes, Mom, we drank responsibly and RB did not play since he was the DD.
We left that party and went and meet some of my H.S. friends at a pub for a going away party. Didn't last long there b/c it was super crowded and we were ready to go home. We were craving tacos so we went to Fuel City. When ever any of the family comes to visit this is one of the places we will take ya. Here is a (cheesy) video but you have to see it...
Sunday, we got up a little late (for us) and I had to get ready for a bridal shower that I had to attend. I am a bridesmaid in the wedding and it is in less then a month in Mexico! This weekend I will be hosting a lingerie shower here at our place...more to come on that later!
After the shower I came home and RB and I decided to go out and enjoy the amazing weather. We got on the trolly that runs in front of our place and took it up to West Village. I know I am playing a lot of cheesy videos but didn't take many pictures this weekend so...here ya go again
We will be making the trolly ride to all the Uptown (which is where we live) restaurants and bars a every weekend tradition. Here in Dallas, brunch and patios are a HUGE deal. We decided we need to see what all the fuss was about and let me tell you...we are hooked. We first started at Manny's Uptown and enjoyed the signature margarita and split a large botana platter on their patio. Both were really good and we will be back there often. Then we walked to Mi Cocina and got a great table on their patio and had a margarita and beer and just enjoyed watching the LARGE crowd enjoying all the patios around West Village. It was so much fun!!!
Well, kids, that was one long weekend and this week we have a lot to do. I will update when I can!
Mom & Dad, even though we had a fun weekend here we are sad we didn't get to spend the weekend with y'all in SA like we used too! Glad, y'all two wild kids had a blast ;)
