Dallas Final Test.....BOARDS

Dallas has studied long and hard for his boards. That is all he does all day for the last two months...lucky for us they have let him study all day every day at work, so we still get him for part of the night.

His test was Wednesday, August 1st. We went down the night before and stayed at a hotel. It was SO much fun to get away, eat out, stay in a hotel, eat their breakfast buffet (which really was quite good) swim and leave without making any beds. It was only for one night, and just the second time that Sydney has been in a hotel (first for Kenady....how lame) and I think her and I loved it the most. Kenady you are so laid back that you like it either way!


We went to Subway for lunch and dropped Dallas off to take his test. Right across the street was AZ Mills Mall and so I decided that was as good of place as any to wast six hours. Luckily both of you fell asleep in the three minuted drive it took to get there and I was able to read Eclipse for close to an hour in the car...I would turn it on to get the car cold...then I would roll down the windows when it got to hot, finally when it was unbearable I would roll up the windows and start all over again. Kenady you woke up and so I played with you (and read) until Sydney woke up...the same time I finished Eclipse. When you get old enough to want to read novels, I will have them ready for you. They are SO GOOD! Remember your mom has great taste, I know you will love them :) heheee.

So into the mall we went and Sydney had to stop at the rainforest cafe to take a picture with the frog and watch the snake and crocidile.

This shopping excursion was mostly about Sydney. We didn't have an agenda, we started at the Rain Forest Cafe and hit every kid store all the way around. First stop, the bathroom of course, then onto the carousel, the IMAX, and then finally the crabs. Kenady and Sydney you both loved the crabs, you dint want to touch them, of course. Then to payless to find ballet and tap shoes and then to the hair salon to get Sydneys first hair cut. It is VERY Cute.

Then it was off to the pest store and finally to the Gap, yeah, mom got her first credit card...but oddly enough all of the clothes were for Sydney and Kenady. By then we were pretty wiped and Sydney made a few friends so we sat and played. Then off again, to find a stroller but Burlington did not have a double stroller in stock (which I went and bought that next week and has yet to be used). I was more than done, Sydney tired and hungry and Kenady bored...When Dallas called to say he was finished. Saved...

He felt good about his test (two weeks later he did really great, passed, and is finally a licensed DPT after taking the test only once!). We headed back to good ol Globe for another day of work and fun :)
