McFadden's Fall Dallas Vacation: Part 3

We'll call the early part of the day, "Spa Day"...it was a bunch of relaxing and not doing much during the day.



 Baby got stamped!  She insisted on every limb being stamped, some twice!
And Cary might want to close his eyes during this part:  mom decided to paint the little one's toenails.  They matched!



Oh Sonic, how I've missed you and your delicious Strawberry limeades!!!
Uncle Bill came over to hang out for the evening, and we all went to Palios for dinner and then enjoyed a tasty treat at Marble Slab afterwards!


**I would like to make note that this was my 3rd night away from Cary during that trip, 3 out of 13...and I was really starting to miss him!!!

McFadden's Fall Dallas Vacation Part 2

Thursday:
Brylee and I got to go to lunch with 3 dear people to me:  my best friend from high school, his wife, and their adorable son, who is close to Brylee's age.  Due to trying to just chat and catch up, I failed, yet again, to get any good pictures of them.  I have failed as a picture-holic!!!

For dinner, mom, dad, Brylee and I went to Spring Creek Barbeque--yummy Texas bbq, oh how I've missed you!!!  (this is a picture of my dad's plate.  Mine looked rather boring compared to his, so his got the spotlight)
 And then off to the mall it was so that Brylee and her grandparents could reunite with play area and play while I hunted down my Project 52 picture (and a little 'for your trouble' purchase...)






JCPenney already has up Christmas decorations...I think it is too early to have some up anywhere, but I was also kinda excited to see it...

Looks stormy out!


And we weren't kidding about the stormy part:  not long after we got home, dad got called to the Fire Department to monitor the incoming severe storms that we got.  Lots of lightening, but I know Texans weren't complaining...it had been a long time since they had seen rain!

Pictures Of The Fall

To those who know me, it comes as no surprise that I love the fall.  So much so, that it helped in my recovery from my last trip to Dallas (the fact I missed my family so incredibly much almost had me trying to see if I could extend my trip).

Cary and I spent our first date night in 2 weeks traveling the scenic New Hampshire Route 112, from Conway to Lincoln and going through the White Mountain National Forest.  What an incredible night, including dinner at an old train station and some geocaching in the rain. 

Here are some pictures I took from the mini road trip, all leaves, and lots of happiness to experience this with my Never-Ending!

McFadden's Fall Dallas Vacation: Part 1

Our first day visiting Dallas consisted of traveling with a 5-star Oma and then staying at a 5-star home, complete with jewelry, sprinklers, flowers, and transportation to delicious food.









 And once Poppy came home from San Antonio, more of this ensued:





Ninjago With A Special Guest

So we took B to go see Ninjago, The LEGO movie a couple of weeks ago, and by we, I mean Cary, myself, my dad, and...my grandfather. Odd co...
