texas trip part 2

We made a trip to downtown Dallas with some of our family. There was a park right in the middle of skyscrapers where the kids could play.
 
Riley liked riding the merry-go-round.


He looked way too grown up on this thing!




Riley has discovered that he likes wearing his sunglasses.

This was a beautiful building that had blue lights shining from the ground that lit up the building at night. It was really cool to see but I wasn't able to get a picture of it.
 
 
 
Joy and Carson in front of the building in which JFK was shot from.

 
A memorial to Martin Luther King, Jr. and Rosa Parks.
 
 
 Something I've wanted to do for awhile... eat from a food truck. There were six food trucks to choose from and this one had the best looking menu to us.

Sliders-- fried chicken topped with mashed potatoes, bbq pork with tomato and jalapenos and a sausage slider with onions and cheese. They were yummy! Also they had the best tater tots I've ever had.
 
One night we went to the American Airlines Center to take pictures of a night sign that was flying.

Riley fell asleep on the way and slept the whole time we were there. Thanks to the timer for this picture as the camera sat on top of a garbage can.

The night sign. A night sign also flew and Samuel and Donna's wedding saying "Congratulations Samuel & Donna". I wasn't able to get a good picture of it at the wedding. The words change to form a sentence or phrase. In this picture it says "Mavs" which is short for the Dallas Mavericks.
 
I should just have one more post of our visit to Fort Worth.

Very cool pics. I ate from a food truck when Patrick and I went to NYC, and it was amazing!
