My 22nd Birthday

For my birthday, Alex came to visit right before my dad went home and so they got to see each other which was nice. Then Alex took me to Dallas (45 mins away) for a romantic getaway. We went and saw the King Tut exhibit at the Dallas Museum of Art. It was very cool and super interesting. Then we went out to a really nice dinner and got all dolled up. I love getting dressed up :) We stayed in an amazing hotel in a really nice room. Alex's parents upgraded our room to one with a terrace for my birthday present which I was totally cool with. Anways...it was a great birthday and a relaxing, much needed weekend away.

Bringing Dad's Weekend to Texas

My dad came to visit for a little over a week (Oct 31-Nov 8). The first weekend we went to the NASCAR races at the Texas Motor Speedway. It was our substitute dad's weekend since i'm not in Pullman anymore. It was sooooo much fun! We had a blast :) My dad hung out with me until Tuesday evening and then he went to a conference he had in Southlake (about 20 mins or so away). We met back up a couple times for dinner and Alex came with us on Friday (he came for my birthday...post coming for that soon!). I was so happy to see my dad and I can't wait to see the whole fam (and everyone else) when I go home for Christmas.
