Bowl Trip Day 4

Day 4 was another adventure for us!!  Daddy had some time in the morning to hang out with us which was nice.  We also had to switch hotels so that we would be closer to the stadium for game day (packing and moving everything was not fun!).  Before switching hotels we went to the Fort Worth Water Gardens that were across the street from our hotel. 








The Water Gardens were very nice--and once again--the weather was perfect to be outside.  But we were off for another adventure. 

We were off to see the JFK Assassination Site.  Although it didn't mean much to the kids--they can now say they have been there.  Julie--was very interested in this!  She actually said it was on her bucket list--so glad we could help her fulfill that!  The whole site was very interesting to me.  It was just a weird feeling being at the place that I have seen so many pictures and video's of of such an important event in history. 

Two things were especially of interest to me---One was that there are two marks painted in the road where the actually two shots hit JFK.  And seeing the building and window that the shots came out of was pretty interesting also. 

(Excuse the blurry pictures--one of the munchins got her smudgy fingers on it).




It was such a nice day--we spent quite a bit of time walking around.  We also went into a small shop across the street and got some ice cream and watched a short video being played of that day.  We didn't make it up to the 6th Floor Museum though--as I was pretty sure the kids would not have done well there.  But to say we have been there, was pretty neat!

After our afternoon adventure we made it to our new hotel and got settled in again.  We decided to divide the kids up that evening, which was great!  Jamison stayed with daddy and ate with the team and helped him with the football boys.  Raegan stayed with Julie and was asleep by 6:30.  Poor girl didn't even eat she was so sleepy.  She slept all night til 6:30 the next morning in her clothes!   Brooklyn went with me to a TU Bowl Bash.  We had a lot of fun!  We ate, and then she got some dancing in!!  It was a fun night!








Great night!!  Now off to get a good nights rest so we are ready for GAME DAY!!!
