Kevin was out of town, in San Antonio, most of last week.
Boyd kept us safe.
He spent the rest of the time looking cute.
{and wearing me out}.
My mom came over on Sunday night to hang out with Boyd, and I slipped away {as fast as I could}.
I was so excited to be having dinner with my friends Megan, and Cindy....who just flew into town Sunday evening. I've known them both through blogging for a couple of years now, and adore both of them. A couple of months ago when Cindy told me she'd be coming to Dallas, I was so thrilled.
When we saw her and her husband pull up to the restaurant on Sunday, I almost knocked the table over getting up. True story. {too much margarita}.
Plus, I was just so happy to see her.

We had a great dinner, lots of good, easy conversation and laughs.
It was an extra bonus to meet Cindy's husband. I've been drooling over his cooking, from afar.
They brought us some homemade pepper jelly, and I can't wait to try it.

It was such a good night.
I picked Cindy up today, and we went to the West End, downtown Dallas.
I'm sad to say I took very few pictures.
I was too busy talking.
We walked over to Dealey Plaza, to see the old Texas School Book Depository.
We had lunch at Ellen's Southern Kitchen.
It was scrumptious, and I think I'm now officially full for the next week.
I'm pretty sure I could have sat there for hours and talked to Cindy.
She has the most easy going spirit about her, and I could learn a lot from her.
We finished lunch and I took her back to the hotel, and made my way back home.
God has blessed me with some sweet and beautiful and true friends, near and far.
I am so thankful.
love,
nicolle
