The rest of our trip...

Another couple important (to me) trips to note while we were in the Dallas area are our IKEA excursion (LOVE that store) and a stop by  Whole Foods for fruit (LOVE that store too).  We also dropped by Sam Moon to check it out but I really didn't find much for myself (1 pair of earings) & Isabella picked out a necklace/bracelet set & some hair clips.  They had a TON of stuff, but most was just way too gaudy for me. ;-)
After leaving the Great Wolf Lodge, we went over to east Texas & visited Mike's Uncles & Aunts there (near Mt. Vernon).  We stayed two nights & had a nice visit and dinner with the family.  Unfortunately we didn't get any pictures of this visit.  Must remember next time!


We then headed over to Camden, AR for Hulon's (Mike's Dad's) 80th birthday party.  And the party was a success & great fun to celebrate with Hulon on his special day.  Isabella met her cousins (Uncle Pat's grandkids) and had a blast playing with them.  She also had lots of fun with Uncle Pat and Uncle Joe as well as Grandpa & Granny.  We stayed two nights in Camden before our long (6.5 hr w/ stops) drive home.  We were sure glad that Mike had taken that Monday off work so that we could all recoup from our whirlwind trip together!  Despite having to replace our tires on the Prius (1 tire needed to be replaced b/c it couldn't be patched & the others would need to be replaced w/in 1000 miles so we just replaced them all) & having to get a new dual screen DVD player (ours broke when we were leaving Grapevine), we had a really great time!
