monday

eagerly anticipating the next two days. a trip up north with the girls. we're hitting the road early in the morning. heading up to Dallas for my first trip to the Texas State Fair (yes I've lived in this great state for 16 years and have never met Big Tex). not to see the livestock or eat fried butter (no really) but to visit the Garden Show.

a night at a Dallas b&b and then up (maybe early) and onto Autumn at the Arboretum.

there will be lots of chatting, laughing and ooohhing and aaahhing. a bit of eating and drinking. and an astonishing amount of girl stuff.
