Dallas Part Deaux

On Saturday, we just maxed and relaxed. It was so nice to not have anywhere to be, have any clothes to fold, and no dishes to do. We got up between 8:30-9 and just sat around in Leah's living room for about 3 hours. Leslie went to eat breakfast with her friend, Claire. We waited for her to get back before we went swimming at Leah's neighbors. We basically went from a spot on the couch to a spot in the pool all day. It was so nice.

After our relaxing morning and afternoon, we came in to get ready for dinner and Wicked. We went to Screen Door, a modern southern restaurant. I didn't make that up...they did. We checked out the menu before we went and all ended up splitting the same thing. Big Mama's fried chicken with mac and cheese. Yum-o! We felt like food photographers at that place. Amanda and I joked about how are husbands hate that we take pictures of every single little thing. After looking at these pics...they are right!

Here we have the spicy crawfish dip with Tabasco crackers. Mmmmmm...

Yes, we asked the couple dining to our left to take our picture. It was OK though because we offered to take their picture, too. Amanda, Leah, Leslie, and me.

Leah and I had motitos. It was just a mojito made with tea. It was pretty tasty.

Here is the Big Mama's fried chicken. Isn't it cute with the little skillet of fat free mac and cheese?

Here we have the shortbread crusted berry cobbler with vanilla bean ice cream.

Outside of the restaurant, we were waiting on the shuttle to take us to the theater. We used a cement post and set the self-timer. We are those people. Little did we know that the shuttle wasn't for our theater. We ended up getting to our seats 5 minutes before it started.

It was Wicked cool!

We were in the nosebleeds about 5 rows from the top. We could still here all the music and see everything, though. It was a fabulous play. It was so creative and I never would have suspected what happened.

I took this picture of the stage right before they said that flash photography was prohibited. Oops.

Look who was there! Casey came all the way up to the balcony during the remix to intermission. She was there on a double date with her husband and her couple bffs.

It was a great trip! Can't wait to do it next year.

Thanks so much to Leah for opening up your home to us. We made it safely back home to Shreveport and Amanda made it back to Indianapolis. That was a fun much needed girls trip.
