Texas


 We spent the Fourth of July weekend in Dallas, because when you feel hot where you are, it is always good to go someplace hotter.  That and I have family and friends in Dallas.  It is an enjoyable break.  I live for vacations.


My cousin lives where you can shoot off fireworks.  Unlike Arkansas, they are not under drought restrictions, so we bought a ton of fireworks and really we needed more.  We ended up with one injury from Ms. Peanut.  She dropped part of the sparkler on her toe, and it left a nasty blister.  




We also went and saw my friend Janet and her family.  Janet and I have been friends since I moved to Little Rock about 14 years ago.  



She has two beautiful children, and our kids call one another cousins which is is super fun and cute.  We went to the zoo, where they had an Australian exhibit.  







Generally, i would not have fed the birds, but I am so glad we did.  The kids had an absolute blast!  There was also a small splash park that we got to go to.  We all went home and had a nice rest after being out in the hot sun and enjoying our day.







We had the opportunity to watch part of a bird show, but BabyP started bullying small children, so we left.  LOL.  When the thug gets so strong he can't overcome it, it is time to take a rest.
