What Now?: June 2014

I just arrived back home from a ten day trip to Lubbock, Texas. And man was everything bigger! I went with Bre to her hometown and had a total blast meeting her family and friends. We did things the Lubbock way, which basically means we ate a ton of delicious food, because that is all there is to do there. Nah, just kidding, but not cause we ate so much good food, and yes of course I took pictures of all of it!

We embarked towards Dallas at 7 am on a Friday morning in a red Ford F150 with no working air conditioner, a cooler of sandwiches and snacks, and the LBK playlist ready to blast. I would say overall we played alot of:

1. Rascall Flatts

2. Multiplied

3. Vertical Church Band

4. I-G-G-Y

5. Frozen

6. Coldplay

7. T-Swift

8. Justin Bieber

9. Katy Perry

10.Play it Again

We also listened to a couple sermons, and tried to read a book aloud, but that didn't work super well with having to have the windows rolled down most of the way there.

The original plan was to stay the night in Dallas with one of Bre's brothers and family, but we just had the traveling vibe and wanted to get there fast, so we drove all the way through and arrived in Lubbock around 12 am. So it was a wonderful 17ish hours!

The whole Tardy family was so sweet to me. To highlight just some of the fun things we did:

1. The Reborn- life as it was meant to be- dance recital, which was so beautiful everyone was in tears as these dancers shared the Gospel through dance

2. Eating at Rosa's, Raising Cane's, Bahama Bucks, Sheridan's, Triple J's, The Arrogant Texan, Torchy's Tacos, Keva Juice, Whataburger, Buns over Texas, Macey's Home, Tardy Home, Eddies BBQ, Hopdoddy, and I'm sure I missed some in there

3. Driving the truck out in a cotton field with pillows, blankets, and a bunch of wonderful girls to watch the sun set and the stars come out.

4. Celebrating Sydney's 20th Birthday with The Fault in Our Stars, Olive Garden, and Hot Tubbin

5. Smores

6. Running with the kids to get a half gallon of Death by Chocolate ice cream and downing it with a few spoons.

7. Going to the pool

8. Shooting with all the girls

9. House sitting with Bre's friends, swimming in the pool, gourmet grilled cheeses, and The End of the Spear in the Theatre room.

10. Learning to make homeade Biscuits

I know I left a lot out, with all the people I met and all the things I did, but this was just a few. On the way back we stayed in Dallas with another relative and had a great dinner at Hopdoddys and headed back to NashVegas the next day. So I'm gonna add all my foodie stuff to my foodie blog if you are interested ;)
