Fort Worth














We decided to go to Fort Worth on a mini vacation. We traveled down on Wednesday afternoon and pretty much relaxed. We tried to find a Walmart, but had no success so when we came upon a Kroger we were so excited. On our second day there we went to the Hulen Mall and found our way around Ft. Worth Streets and highways! I found the cutest pink Adidas Tennis shoes! We went to lunch at panda express one of our favs and then went to see License to Wed, which was quite funny and had a lot of the characters from the Office which was a plus!








We went to the Ft. Worth Stockyards and here is Tanner with a guy taking down a bull!












At Billy Bob's we played some pool and some video games!













We went to Billy Bobs and had fun dancing and looking at the handprints! This is Kenny Chesney's!!! How exciting!











Right before we went into the Dallas Aquarium. The Aquarium had so many birds and bats and fish!! Lots of fun!











They put out the sloth for 4 hours in a bunch of trees! It was fun to see! I took most of the sloth pictures for my nieces who love to watch Dora the Explorer :)










One of my favorite animals was the penguins! They were so cute!












This is the leopard we saw! It was hard to get a good picture because of the lighting and he was surrounded by glass, which is a good thing!

























Here we are at our hotel that was well.....interesting. It didn't have a trash can in the room, or a tv remote control, no water pressure, the elevators didn't work and the phones went out!! So eventually I went out to talk to the lady and she did NOTHING, but luckily Tanner went down and we got a new room and a huge TV too!

We had a great time in Fort Worth and now can actually navigate around on our own! We were so excited to get a chance to relax even if only for a couple of days!

I hope you enjoyed reading about parts of our mini vacation!

  1. That's fun that you guys were able to get away & do something fun. Your hotel experience sounds familiar- One time Rusty & I got the nastiest hotel in Southern CA... we just needed somewhere to stay inbetween our drive from TX to CA & didn't want to spend a bunch of money. That was a mistake- it was so gross!!! Anyway, its so fun seeing your pictures...keep it up. Try to take p[ictures when you go up to Sunset because it's fun seeing what everyone else is up to also!
