Trip to the BIG CITY

Last Thursday we

left our country life

and headed north to Big D! 

Dallas, Texas

We packed a lot into our trip to the Big City

We arrived Thursday afternoon,

went over to visit Dan's mom

and took her to dinner.

Later that evening our son came to

our hotel to visit.

We sat out in the courtyard by the pool

and caught up on what's going on in his life,

very nice visit.

Next day, Dan had a business meeting.

After his meeting we went to

my daughter's and hung out

with her, my son-in-law, and

two grand kids.

Great to see them!!!

That evening Hubby took me out

to one of my favorite Dallas

Restaurants to celebrate

 our 38th wedding anniversary!!

 

But first we had to fight the Dallas traffic!!!!

Adelmo's is a tiny Italian Ristorante

in the Knox/Henderson area of Dallas.

It's one of our favorite

places to go for a special evening.

Isn't the atmosphere lovely?

Decisions, decisions.....What should we order???

We finally decided -
Soft shell crab sauteed w/ mushrooms and spinach for starters.....
Next, we both chose Osso Bucco w/ Risotto Rice for our entree
and a nice bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon
......we finished with yummy cups of cappuccino

A heavenly meal!!!!!!

Saturday morning we drove through Dallas to Rockwall

where my mom lives and took her out for Brunch.

My sister and her hubby were able to join us and we

had a lovely time.

So glad we got to see both our moms on this

Mother's Day Weekend.

But after seeing our family,

taking care of a little business on Dan's part,

and a romantic meal at one of

our favorite Dallas restaurants

it was time to head home!!



Good Bye "Big City"

Good Bye City TRAFFIC!!!!!!

Time to head SOUTH

We don't relax till we are

through Waco and out of the traffic

...but once we are on Highway 77

it's smooth sailing

HELLO
to open roads.....

.......Open fields

 Time to soak in the beauty,
enjoy the peace and quiet,

 We are headed HOME!


Oh, and BTW,
My husband was sweet enough to make a stop
in one of the small towns we pass through and let
me shop a little........

But that's going to be in a future post!

Every Little Birdie says -

Don't forget to stop by again soon!!!
You wouldn't want to miss it.

going 70 miles per hour.......Hubby doesn't slow
down for photo ops.
