Henderson's birthday was Friday, and there's nothing I love more than celebrating my husband. He really wanted to go to the DFW Auto Show on Saturday since he's in the market for a new truck. But I had a surprise up my sleeve so I convinced him to go on Friday night. And it was a great excuse to eat at Tillman's Roadhouse in the Bishop Arts District.

When we got home Friday night, I gave him his cards and gifts. In one of them was a poem I had written just for the weekend. The poem described how we were going to get up Saturday morning and head to Fort Worth for a fun over-night stay! We started off at the zoo!
The baby elephants made an appearance!
It was the best weather to be out exploring the zoo! Not cold at all!
We then headed to the Stockyards to check-in at the Stockyards Hotel and grab a late lunch. We ate at Risky's BBQ and since it was in the stockyards, I wasn't expecting anything good but I was very surprised! I had the brisket tacos and they were so delish!
We continued walking around the stockyards and shopping until it was time to get ready for dinner.
I made reservations at Reata and it was so good!!
They gave us free champagne to celebrate.
We went back to the hotel and had drinks at the bar. I couldn't resist a photo shoot!
Sunday morning was the Fort Worth Marathon and we got to watch it from our window. It was so much fun to watch and I even saw a few people I knew! We had breakfast at the hotel and then headed home. Such a nice getaway with my love!!
