Fort Worth Dallas -

Tracy and I just got home from a wonderful trip to Fort Worth, Texas. I gave Tracy concert tickets to Billy Bobs to see Eli Young Band and Pat Green for his birthday.
Oma and Opa came in on Thursday to watch the boys while we went to Fort Worth. I am not sure who had more fun Tracy and I or the boys. The boys built a amazing gingerbread house and stable and cut out cookies with Oma. Opa took Nicholas to golf clinic and they all went ice-skating. When they did manage to stay home, Oma did school and crafts with the boys and Opa played many card games. The boys love when Oma comes and teach them Math and handwriting!Oma brings books from Tracy's childhood Christmases! The boys love to listen to Oma read!

Tracy and I got to the Worthington hotel on Friday night just in time to catch a cab (my first cab ride) to go to dinner at Joe T Garcia's for dinner. I loved the menu, you had a choice of fajitas or enchiladas and yummy chips. We walked from there to Billy Bobs to see the SOLD OUT concert of Eli Young Band. What a blast!! Saturday we hooked up with Kim and Mike (thanks Kim for the beautiful hotel room that you gave Tracy for his birthday!) and went out to lunch and walk the Stock Yards. We had a blast walking around a real cowboy street with longhorns and fun shops! We had dinner at Risky's barbecue - all you can eat ribs yum! Then we headed back to Billy Bobs thanks to our wonderful cab driver Sami. This experience was a little different- with EYB we had reserved seating and arrived at 10:15 to sit and see the concert that started at 10:30 but for Pat Green we had general admission tickets so we arrived at 8:00 and stood by the rail to save our great spot. It was a great concert but standing for 5 hours , man my feed hurt! We ended the trip with a wonderful cowboy breakfast - the food was great the YMCA is going to be calling my name!!!! What a wonderful weekend!!
