Darren & Caroline

We had a fabulous Thanksgiving weekend with Darren & Caroline, who so graciously flew in from Indy. Thursday we enjoyed a traditional feast complete with turkey, California blend, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, gravy (the pregnant woman’s fav), stuffing, cranberry jelly, cheesecake, and coffee. Friday, we painted the nursery. It looks great! Thanks so much! Friday evening we went out for dinner, and then had dessert in Reunion Tower, a Dallas skyline fixture, including a rotating lounge 50 stories up. The view was beautiful. Saturday we headed over to Fort Worth to try out some vintage Texas in Cowtown. We saw some longhorns, enjoyed Riscky’s, an old west restaurant, and we talked with the characters before they shot each other in the show. Diedra and Caroline were mesmerized by the fumes…I mean, the spray-paint artist who skillfully created Texas landscapes. Sunday included church, junk food, euchre, lots of laughs, and good conversations. Now the apartment is too quiet, as they returned to Indy on Monday. Thanks again for coming! It was so much fun!
