Last weekend, Colson and I flew down to Dallas to visit Beth and Jake. It was so fun! Unfortunately, the only pictures I have on my computer are of us at Chik-fil-A because the rest of the pictures with Beth and Jake are on Colson's computer. Beth has posted a bunch on Facebook, though, so you can go on facebook and just look at pictures that have me tagged in them.
On Friday, we went to the Hurricane Harbor water park and had an awesome time. Later that night, we drove across the street to the Rangers game and watched the Rangers lose to the Twins. Afterwards, they had fireworks in the ballpark that were really good and synced to some great music.
Later that night, I proceeded to be like a little kid and had a stomach-ache because I ate too much junk food. You think I'd learn by age 23.
Saturday, we went to Chik-fil-A (a great chicken fast-food place for all you northerners who have never experienced it) and then Beth and I went to this AMAZING and cheap jewelry/purse/etc. store. We also experienced "Yogurtland"--this frozen yogurt place that was so good. And finally, to top off the day of eating, we made fondue at Beth and Jake's apartment and watched a movie. Good times...
The weekend was made even better by the fact that we got to hang out with Kellen and Kristina on Sunday. Kellen was Colson's roommate of 4 years at Wheaton who has now moved with his wife, Kristina, to the Dallas area. That weekend was their first weekend of being in Dallas, so we got to hang out with them a bit and all feel like outsiders in Texas. Here's a pic of the guys trying to fit it with Texas culture...

Oh and on one last note...the weather while we were there was AWESOME! It had been about 108 degrees the week before we were there, but the entire weekend in Dallas, it didn't get over 95. At night, it got down to about 86, which was perfect weather for the Rangers game.
