Monday-Wednesday we hung out at home and just enjoyed not being on a schedule. Aaron was off on Thursday and Friday so we got out and did a few things.
First we went to the American Girl Bistro & Boutique in Dallas. The girls got their dolls all ready and we headed out. We were a little disappointed though because we did not have reservations to eat (I should have known better) and we got there around 11:30 and they told us it would be 3 or 4 before they could seat us. Needless to say, we did not wait. The girls enjoyed walking around and looking at everything in the boutique and we promised to take them back to eat!
Sallie had so much fun looking at all the dolls
"Look Daddy!"
"Daddy, we need this!"

On Friday we went out to the Botanical Gardens. We go out there a good bit but it was such a beautiful day and we went to the butterfly exhibit. It was so crowded! I prefer the gardens a little less crowded. I did take a few pics of Millie which I will share later but I did not get to do as much as I would like because there were so many people. 
Friday night we went to Granbury and walked around on the town square and then to the drive-in to see Horton Hears a Who. We had so much fun! The drive-in was really neat and we all loved it. For any of you in the area who have never done that, you should (and it is so much cheaper than theaters).
Lizzie enjoyed the popcorn most of all
The screen before the movie started. I took some after it started but they were not good. 
The movie does not start until dusk so it was around 8:30 when it started. Lizzie lasted a while but by around 9:30 she was fast asleep in my arms!
We had a great time spending time as a family! Too bad we can't just play all the time! It was good while it lasted!!!
