Dallas!

During Benjamin's week long holiday break in November, we spent a bit of time in Dallas...enjoying a few places we've always wanted to take the boys:  NorthPark Mall's Train Exhibit, the Perot Nature & Science Museum, Reunion Tower, & more.






We're on vacation!  Trevin's cute little hand-me-down rolling suitcase from Hannah.



 A travelling exhibit at the Perot Museum...so fascinating.  These animals were preserved by a technique called Plastination.  It took me back to all my Biology and A&P classes.  The boys loved it.

 3-D flying like a bird...Trevin loved it.

 Benjamin raced against someone...can't remember who

Neat trip. We are heading to TX next summer. Since Dallas is first on the list, looks like we will have to add the museum to it!!! Fun times!!

Fun to see your new posts! My sister & family enjoy Dallas when it works to go also. Last year for the kids' birthdays they had so much fun there. Looks like a very fun time!
