Having your beau with you the whole time and in Dallas for an extended period? = Priceless! Joyous! Happiness! Woohoo!
What a weekend! We pretty much spent the entire weekend in a car. The map above sums it up!
My ever so thoughtful and loving FI decided to move down to Dallas for 6-8 weeks to be with me; but, before he moved, we had to make a bit of detour. Unfortunately, my place in Dallas does not allow dogs...so...we had to take the ladies to his sister's place in Fargo. I flew up to Chicago on Wednesday night, we headed to Fargo on Thursday morning (bright and early), got a bit of time to spend with FSIL and FBIL, left Fargo on Friday afternoon, stopped at Topeka, KS, for a night, then made the rest of the trip to Dallas on Saturday.

CD and I are very excited about our time together and looking forward to our adventure in Dallas; however, it was incredibly difficult to leave our girls behind...(I think we will have a real hard time in the future if we ever need to send our kids away to camp, to grandparents', or college!) Well, at the least, they won't be bored with Boggs chasing them around and Molly will keep them in line! And, most fortunately, my FSIL is one heck of a 'dog whisperer' - total, complete, utmost trust in her that they will be great in her care. We are so grateful that she (and her hubby) have taken them in. :)

Wow! That's a lot of driving! But road trips can be fun. Based on the picture, I guess FSIL is Chuck's sister. (FBIL doesn't look related to Chuck.) Have you met up with the Chung's yet?
Enjoy your time together like engaged couples do!
We saw a lot of farm lands...cows, horses, and haystacks...and some tiny oil rigs. In Kansas, I even got to go to Hooters for the first time! We were so tired and just wanted a restaurant that we can walk to from the hotel.
FSIL = future sister in law (Nikki, Chuck's older sister)
FBIL = future brother in law (Jeremy, Chuck's sister's husband)
Boggs - their 1.5 yr old "Cockapoo+" (mutt)
Molly - their 10 yr old German Sheppard!
Now with Patty and Selma, they have a full house! :)
Oh, we have plans in motion to meet the Chung's at Austin at the end of the month. Wish you could be there, too!!! :(
