Chihuly Girls Night

One of my most favoritest things I did while we were in Texas was our girls night. Don't get me wrong, I love me some time with Gar and Jack but spending an evening with Hannah, Lauren and Jennifer is always an adventure. One evening the four of us drove down to the Dallas Arboretum to see the gardens and the Chihuly glass exhibit. Basically I knew nothing about Chihuly or blown glass before we went but now I can say I am a big fan. And I actually realized, while reading his wikipedia page, that I had seen a Chihuiy before - he has a piece on the ceiling in the Bellagio. But before we got to the Arboretum I made us stop at Sprinkles Cupcakes because I literally have a cupcake problem. I was really looking forward to going to Sprinkles since it's the "original" cupcakery, all natural ingredients, blah, blah, blah - but we were all disappointed! I'd take a boxed fun-fetti cupcake over those any day. Sors.

Apparently if you go to Sprinkles you have to take a picture of the cupcakes... or at least that's what everyone on Instagram thinks. But seriously, don't be fooled by how cute they look.

This is my favsies picture, you can see the Chihuly glass in the pool and then White Rock Lake in the background. Beautimous.
