Another Ranger's Game!!

Well, Justin won....
After all the begging I agreed to go to a Ranger's game with him, and yes we took Korbyn with us. I must admit, it was pretty fun to be there. And there is a pretty good story too. After we parked the car we were walking towards the stadium. We didn't buy tickets in advance because we were just going to buy the cheap nose-bleed section ones, and as we were walking we saw a scalper. So Justin asked him how much, and the guy said $20 dollars each, but we didn't want to pay that much so we said no. Then he said 10 each, but we still didn't really want to pay that much. So we kept walking, and this guy that was walking by us, said here, I have a better deal... I don't want to have the hassle of trying to sell these, so you can have them, and he handed them to Justin. Of course, Justin was like, are you sure??? And the guy said, yah no prob, but you just have to give us your baby, hehe. He was totally joking so it was pretty funny! And the sweet thing was that if you look close in the pictures, we were on the 15th row, and that stadium was packed. Then we looked at the tickets to see how much they were, and they were $54 a piece!! What a nice guy! So that was really cool. 

 But whoever said it would be a good idea to take a 3 month old to a major league baseball game, was wrong!! We ended up having to leave after the 5th inning because I think it was like the LONGEST baseball game ever! It was a really close game, and so each inning took forever. We stayed for 2 hours, and it was still only the 5th inning!!! Korbyn was getting so tired, but it was SO loud, so there was no way he was going to fall asleep, so we just left. 

But definitely the FUNNIEST part of the game was this REALLY cute little old lady who kept banging a drum. It was the coolest thing ever, because all the people seemed like it was totally normal, and everyone just clapped along with the drum! And we even took video of it, you have to watch it! It is HILARIOUS!!! 

Here we all are below!! Korbyn was such a good little guy!!

He had soo much fun, but had NO idea what was going on!! HEHE

It is such an awesome looking stadium, and pictures do not do it justice!

Daddy and Korbyn at his FIRST major league baseball game! Lucky little guy!

Simply Korbyn...

Make a Smilebox photobook

I found the coolest thing. It is called smilebox and you can create your own scrapbook of pictures and then paste them on your blog! It was a lot of fun using it, and I will probably do it a lot more because it was so easy!!

Touring Dallas...

So when Justin's parents, Clyde and Ti'Ata, and Grandma Cherry were here, we went and saw some fun attractions here in Dallas. First we went to the all famous DEALEY PLAZA and the SIXTH FLOOR MUSEUM. If you don't know, Dealey Plaza is the place where President John F. Kennedy was shot and killed in 1963. And the museum is on the sixth floor of the School Book Depository, where the alleged Lee Harvey Oswald shot the infamous shots that killed him (some believe anyway!)

Before we moved here, Justin and I were educated on JFK's assassination by Ti'Ata and Grandma Cherry. We watched a few different movies on different theories that happened that day, and the famous Zabruder Film that caught it on tape. It was really fun to watch all the documentaries, and then be able to go there and stand where it all happened. Here are some of the pictures we took outside at Dealey Plaza...

So,this picture below is the best picture of Dealey Plaza I got. The road here is the one that his motorcade was driving on when he was shot. 

The building behind Justin and Ti'Ata is the school book depository, where Oswald was. 

And if you look closely in this picture below, there is an X on the road. That is where JFK was, when the first shot hit him. 

And this next picture is the second X, where the fatal shot to the head took place.

This picture shows the famous Grassy Knoll. 

Where Grandma Cherry is standing by the fence on the grassy knoll is where there is speculation there may have been a second shooter.

This is just a picture of some of the buildings in downtown Dallas, that I thought looked pretty cool...

After Dealey Plaza and the museum, we went to the Old City Park. It was really cool. It was an old historic village, which had a log cabin that was built in 1847 by the Miller family, and then next door was their mansion that they built in 1862. They were one of the first families to homestead in Dallas. The little village also had other houses, a little hotel, a doctor and dentist's office, a bank, a General Store, and a whole lot more! I feel bad though, because I didn't take any pictures while we were there! OOPS!

We then headed to Ripley's Believe it or not Museum. That is always fun to walk through and see all the strange things. And guess who we saw there... Justin's all time IDOL... TIGER WOODS!

And here is the proof...

We actually must have been there at just at the right time, because we also saw Jennifer Lopez and Johnny Depp. It was awesome!

Okay, well it was actually just a wax museum that we went to! But we did see a lot of stars!

And I got to be on the Oprah show and Justin was on Letterman!...

We did all that on a Saturday, and then the next Monday before they all left we had to go to the TEXAS ROADHOUSE. And yes it is better in Texas! Here are a few pics from that...

Here Korbyn is Sleeping in his car seat AGAIN!!! This is what he does whenever we go places, which is actually really nice, but not too good for family pictures! But he definitely is cute NO MATTER WHAT!!!! He is sleeping with his new favorite monkey blanket that his Mamoo gave him, it is adorable! 

Then, last... but definitely not least, Justin and his dad, decided to venture out to Arlington to watch a Texas Ranger's game against the Seattle Mariners. 

Here they are inside the stadium watching the game.

They bought the most nose-bleed section seats possible, and half way through the game they went to about the 3rd row, because there wasn't a whole lot of people there. Justin was in HEAVEN, seeing all those big name baseball stars up close.

Here is Clyde in front of the beautiful BallPark in Arlington. I think it is the coolest looking ballpark I have ever seen!

And here is more of the inside of the park...

Below is a close up picture of big time star, Josh Hamilton. Supposed to be one of THE BEST baseball players of all time!

We had a LOT of fun, as you can see, and now we are SO sad they are gone. Because now reality is setting in, and it's not a vacation anymore. BUMMER!

NOW STAY TUNED FOR PICTURES OF OUR APARTMENT, NEW DRIVER'S LICENSE AND TEXAS PLATES WE HAD TO GET! GOOD TIMES!!

THE BIG MOVE!!!!

Wow, sorry this has taken me SO long to post! It has been a week today that we have been here in North Richland Hills, Texas! It's exciting and scary all at once! We LOVE our apartment and the area. There is everything you can dream of and a whole lot more here to do!

Here are some pics of Justin, Clyde (Justin's dad), and Luke (our next door neighbor) moving our stuff into the truck! Sure is a lot of junk!!!

Justin decided he wanted to try and fit in down here in Texas, so for their long truck drive he grew out some handle bars. Aren't they sexy?HEHE

Justin and his dad are such great troopers. They drove 2 days to get here. The first day they drove 15 hours and the second day they drove 6 hours. Then when they finally got here they started unloading the truck at about 3 o'clock and didn't finish until we arrived at 7! Needless to say they were SO tired and ready for bed!

Well, this is how Justin and his dad drove down, with all of our stuff in the truck and towing our car...

But the women got to do it a little better, we FLEW! Thanks to our sweet husbands we had it a little easier, even though it was still rough with a little one!

This is our SUPER good traveler in his adorable outfit, sweats are so comfy to travel in! After we landed people kept saying, I can't believe there was a baby on here, we didn't hear a peep! He is so good! 

Here we are on the plane!

This is Justin's mom, and grandma... So Korbyn Mimi and Mamoo. They were such a HUGE help! It is not easy to travel alone with a baby, so I am not looking forward for the trip home (Portland) for christmas without Justin!

And here we are FINALLY in Dallas leaving the airport!

Korbyn is shown below ASLEEP, he always misses all the fun! This time he missed the fun of trying to find our apartment and our husbands in this HUGE city!

He sure is pooped! How cute!

And at last!!! Here we are in the apartment!

Grandma just about got lost in the kitchen with all that stuff!!

Finally back together again, all safe and sound thank goodness. 

It was kind of a shocker as we walked in our apartment. It just didn't feel real, but I had to make myself remember that this is where home is now. It was really a strange feeling!

Now we are getting to know things better, and feel like we are really going to like it here, although it is going to be tough trying to make friends and feel like we belong. There is some good southern hospitality here that makes you feel like everyone is so nice, it is awesome!

We miss you all and hope that you can come see us soon, we are finding more and more to do here, and it would be a fun trip for ya'll! 

STAY TUNED FOR MORE OF OUR SIGHT SEEING WE DID WITH JUSTIN'S FAMILY! COMING SOON TO A BLOG NEAR YOU!!!!
