Good Times in Oak Cliff

This weekend we had a blast doing fun artsy things around Oak Cliff during the 2nd Annual Art Crawl. This consisted of the Urban Street Bazaar, A Better Block, and many, many other activities and functions.

Ian squats for a better view of the goats at the Better Block's petting zoo.

Eating his favorite food at La Reyna's on Davis @ Tyler

Ian and I ate lunch together at Cafe Brazil on Saturday. The waiter kindly posted our Spring Bash poster in their window!

Ian chills at the Urban Street Bazaar with goat poop on his shoes - nice!

Outside in the Backyard

Jason and I are certain we have a James Audubon in the making. Ian loves to be outside and wants to be there all day long. We spend hours out in the backyard, the park, or walking down the street. Ian touches all the flowers, picks some of the weedy ones (which is just fine thank you), and points at the sky yelling, "Ta-tas!" (birds).


He and I spent a couple hours out in the backyard on Saturday doing nothing really. Just enjoying the incredible weather and looking and touching EVERYTHING. Every now and then I would do a crossword puzzle, scoop poop, or do a little weeding.

Ian is truly an outdoors type. We have this sand and water table on the way, and I cannot wait for Ian to get his hands on it! Here are some photos and a video from this past weekend. Enjoy!
