What a fun weekend we had. Mom, Madison and I went to Dallas for a girl's trip. The plan was to finish Christmas Shopping but I think we might have bought ourselves a little more than we bought others, BUT we had a GREAT time and hit some big sales. Truth is we are a very giving bunch so to actually get ourselves a few things felt good and it was fun. Plus, now we get to have the fun of finishing up our shopping this week.
We left Friday morning at 6:30. We hit the outlet mall in Allen, TX first. It was fun but we actually did not buy anything there.
This was when we first arrived in Allen before hitting the stores! Only group pic of the trip
Then we went on into Dallas and hit Sam Moon. We LOVE that store. Madison bought a new duffle bag (super cute) and I bought a few small Christmas gifts. We ended up at Uncle Julio's for dinner. Very yummo. If you have never been it is a must eat if you are ever in Dallas. On the way back to the hotel we stopped at a HUGE Tuesday Morning and bought some Christmas Cards.
We stacked our dinner plates in front of mom and then teased her about eating so much.
Saturday morning we were up and at the mall when it opened. We started out at Grapevine Mills, which is actually where we bought the most stuff. All of us left the mall w/a pair of shoes. Good deal, right?!
My sweet friend, Bonnie, had given me money for Christmas and made me promise to spend it on myself. I bought 2 really cute shirts in Burlington. 1 more dressy and 1 more casual. I had Madi send her this picture as proof I bought something for myself!
Mom got these really cute rocket dog tennis shoe/boot type shoes. She tried them on w/her pjs and of course she looked adorable!
After Grapevine Mills we went on over to the Galleria. Parking was INSANE. Took forever to find a spot and it was on the 4th floor of the parking garage. Creepy garage too, it was to low for my taste. Felt like we were boxed in!
HUGE Christmas Tree at the Galleria Mall. The ice rink is around it and they also had a Choir singing Christmas Carols. The mall was 4 stories and they had about every store regular malls have plus all the rizty stores where I do not shop!
After we left the Galleria we hit some other shops that were not in the mall. Sunday morning we got around and headed home. So overall we shopped for hours everyday...ate some good food....did some people watching...had some great laughs...
Mom and Madi at Texas Roadhouse when we were on the way home. VERY good food. It's kind of like a Logan's but they have this delicious cinnamon butter they bring out w/the rolls and their sweet tea was delicious!!!
Overall, it was such a good time. Quality time spent w/the 2 most important women in my life. Came home feeling very blessed!
