On Daphne's actual birthday, we woke up bright and early!
First thing on our agenda: Family Pictures! One of my dear Texas friends, Emily Mulkey, is an incredible photgrapher. I somehow convinced her to take pictures of us, so we headed over to the Dallas Arboretum:
Emily's pictures are works of art. I can't wait for y'all to see them! Go to her website to find out more about her! Emily Mulkey Photography
I LOVE the Arboretum! I so wanted to go exploring the whole think like my friend Marcy and I used to do back in the day!
You'll notice that most of the pictures are of Isaac and Daph because Tori was sort of done with the photo shoots at this point....

They have so many new exhibits since the last time I was there... like the Beatrix Potter village.
Here they are walking into Peter Rabbit's house... we actually saw a little brown bunny hopping around outside! Victoria was ecstatic!
Unfortunately, the kids were way too hot after just a little bit of exploring... we probably only explored 1/3 of the park! Although we had been in Texas all week, the only time we spent outside was in the pool. My kiddos were covered in sweat and we were ready for a break. Since it was Daphne's birthday, we wanted her to choose where we had lunch. The only restaurant she wanted to go to was Cafe Rio... but they don't have those in Texas. So... I suggested we go to my favorite Mexican restaurant in Dallas... Mariano's.
I LOVE Mariano's! I dream about their salsa sometimes.

Ummm... excuse me, I ordered the LARGE bowl of soup....
And tiny tacos....
Sisters snuggling!
After all the yummy fajitas and salsa, it was time for the birthday song, this time in Spanish!
After lunch, we took Tori and the boys back for naptime, while I took Daphne for a birthday treat: Mani-pedi at the nail shop!
Daphne's favorite color is blue:
Daphne LOVED getting her nails done... she often asks to go, so this was a fun birthday treat for her! Lots more birthday pics to come!
