3 weeks!

It's been 3 weeks since our last post and I don't even know where to begin. We have traveled all over and arrived back home yesterday. It was SOOOO nice sleeping in our comfy and soft bed!
We left for Dallas around the 8th and went to Maddox's 1st Birthday party, visited a night with the Bell's, had dinner with Ryan and saw friends. That Sunday (12) we drove to Texarkana early to see Cristin, Joey and baby Tyler while they were in Texarkana. Her mom was nice enough to have a get together while they were in town and cooked burger, hot dogs and let everyone swim. Hailey is such a water baby so she enjoyed every minute of it. We stayed at Poppy's for a couple of days and at Mia's a couple of days. Hailey loves playing with everyone while in town and most of all Bella and Duke. We even took a trip to Little Rock to get Carly, see Aunt Tonia and my dear friend Stephanie. She brought Hailey the cutest doll and camera! Carly came back to Texarkana with us and stayed through the weekend. I could go on and on about the wonderful time we have in Texarkana each time we go. It's a great place to visit, you run around all day and are in bed early! We dine out at the local places with family and our days are filled with friends.

Hailey and I headed back to Irving on Saturday morning so we could rush to Southlake and back. Uncle Mark and Amanda came in for Hailey's 1st birthday and we were so excited to see them. Our schedules have been so different while we are all in town that one of these days we're going to be on the same one. We can't wait to be in College Station (sooner than later now!!) so we can play. Hailey always goes right to Uncle Mark which doesn't happen with very many people. The evening we met my dad after Mass for dinner and enjoyed it a lot. Thanks Jim for Dinner! The following day was Hailey's 1st birthday at Little Gym but I'll do a whole posting on that. We had a GREAT time!

The next few days were hanging out in Irving, pulling weeds, having our tenants move in, playing with friends, visiting with the Bells, Hailey's 1 year shots, a little shopping and then packing up to head back. We found a few good deals for Hailey for Christmas while we were shopping that she needs. Lynn bought me a red hat and scarf that I can't wait to wear!
