Trip Report: Dallas

Dallas - Gina and Brock's Wedding

To start off the journey, we headed to Dallas for Gina's wedding. Gina is a dear friend of ours - so close that we even let her babysit Calvin back in the day! :D It was good to see her again. On Friday we went to her parents' lovely house for a people-from-out-of-town hanging out time. It was really nice to be able to spend a little time with Gina and to eat the delicious chocolate-covered cherry groom's cake - though I'm still not sure about this "Texas BBQ" thing :D. We have a few pictures from the wedding - most didn't come out because we didn't know how to work the brand new camera that I gave Brett for our anniversary. By the end of the trip, Brett was a pro with it, even making use of the manual settings - but our first attempts to use it were thwarted by my taking it off the "dummy setting". I finally realized that the camera really is just smarter than me. :D

Oh, and the first picture in the album is from lunch before Gina's wedding at a place called Uncle Bucks. It was attached to the Bass Pro Shop - I had never been in one of those. Let me just go on the record and say WOW. There were camping things I didn't even know I NEEDED. :D So after a giant hamburger and 8 hand crafted beers for $10, we walked around the store and limited our purchases to a knife-spoon-fork combo set and clip on LED flashlights. But wow, the camp kitchens were calling me. LOL.
