Cotton Bowl 2014

The first weekend of 2014 we headed to Dallas to see the Cotton Bowl. Our Cowboys were playing the Missouri Tigers so we met up with the Lutzs, who went to MIZ! How fun for our favorite teams to play each other. Perfect excuse for a get together! And, I got to meet their newest addition, Lily! she's so precious and barely seemed to be present all weekend. Such a good baby! The game was pretty good but sadly didn't finish the way we wanted it to. The Lutzs were happy though! 

On Saturday we had brunch at a neat restaurant that Fred picked out. His sister joined us as well and we all had fun visiting over food and not wrangling kids the entire time! After brunch we headed to Ikea.  I think I set a record and was only in there an hour...not that the guys rushed us or anything...ok, they really didn't. After ikea we stopped by my good friend, Shelly's house. It was fun seeing her and her kids and relaxing and chatting. Thanks for having us Shelly! 

After Shelly's we headed back to the hotel, super fancy and nice hotel by the way! Thanks to Fred for that hookup! We enjoyed being lazy and slowly getting ready for dinner at The Capital Grille. So yummy! 

Sunday morning we dropped the Lutzs off at the airport then headed home. Our 5.5 hr trip turned into 6.5 because bad weather had moved into Oklahoma and Northwest Arkansas. It could have been worse! We were happy to get back and see our girls. I think they were excited too! Thank you Fred, Leslie and Lily for such a fun weekend getaway!
