The Dallas Aquarium

Last week my good friend Lauren came up here to North Texas, so I decided to be VERY, and I mean VERY, adventurous and meet her at the Dallas Aquarium. For those of you who don't know me very well, I don't like driving in big cities, especially when I don't know where I am going. You might be thinking, "you live in a big city," but everything I need is on just a few select streets, and if I have to venture off of them, I usually have a small panic attack. Anyway, everything was going fine until we missed the exit, which I still say wasn't clearly marked, and ended up in the ghetto near the Cotton Bowl. I knew this wasn't a good area to be lost in because I had been to the Cotton Bowl several times (yes, it was a long time ago when the Aggies were actually good enough to go to bowl games)! Sam had my Garmin in his work truck, so I called him at work and told him he was going to have to leave his office and come and rescue me, although I wasn't sure we would still be around by the time he got there! He did get me back on track, but I wouldn't let him get off the phone with me until I was in the parking lot with Lauren in my sight!!! It was definitely an adventure, and next time I think I will let someone else drive!

It was a really neat place to take the kids, although not stroller friendly! We had a blast with Lauren and the boys, and we are so glad that we were able to meet them there!

Agghh..it won't let me upload the pictures so I will try again later!
