Gone to Texas

Well, we loaded up the kids and left early Saturday morning and headed for Allen Texas...home of the Premium Allen Outlets, just north of Dallas. (Great place, different stores) Jord took the scenic route down and we arrived around 11:00 am, ready for shopping. I took the kids and away we went. We shopped until they were wore out (I was not the one who complained the first....although I was beat!) We made the big loop and headed back to the car to find Jord taking a nap! Evidently his shopping didn't take as long. We all found great deals and everyone seemed pleased, but we were ready to crash at the hotel. We stayed at the Fairfield Inn which had a indoor pool and hot tub....the kids and I swam and Jord crawled into the hot tub....both felt great. We crawled out of bed the next day and did more shopping all the way home to Oklahoma. It was a much needed break for all of us, we haven't been anywhere over night since last summer's trip to Washington. The weather out here is crazy as usual....one day its 75 and the next its 30. It would be nice if it was a little consistent.....you never know what your going to get. Miss everyone....we haven't decided if we are coming this summer. Jord really wants to come for Christmas. He also wants to grow melons this summer.....he's missed out the last 3 summers on his garden. I'm hoping we come out for 10 days in the summer and then come back for Christmas!! Ha! What are the chances of that?
