I promised an update upon our return from Dallas, Texas and I am delivering! I can't even begin to describe what a fun trip we had! We left from Dulles airport at 6:30am on Saturday morning, arriving in Dallas at 9:15am with an entire day to enjoy. Upon our arrival to DFW Airport, we picked up our rental car and headed towards our hotel... conveniently near Cowboys Stadium :) Driving into the entertainment district of Arlington, we spot...
Cowboys Stadium! What an incredible first look at the new stadium! Half of the reason Andy and I wanted to get out to Dallas this season was to check out the digs. Jerry Jones has built the Cowboys a palace! We were even more excited for the game and the visit upon seeing this magnificent site upon our arrival. We were so lucky to have found a hotel about 1 mile from the actual stadium. We went and checked in early and relaxed, napped, and showered before our tailgate festivities. Around 2pm, we headed to our parking spot to kick off the football fun!
After meeting some local Texans and enjoying a few drinks, we headed towards the stadium to check out what it had in store for us. On our walk up, we were lucky enough to see some of the players entering the stadium from the players lot.
Nose Tackle Jay Ratliff
Tight End Martellus Bennett
For our anniversary a year and a half ago, Andy ordered us a personalized brick to be placed around the sidewalks of the stadium. We were on a mission to find our brick. It took us awhile, but we finally found it!
After finding our brick, we headed into the stadium. We got to walk around inside, visit the proshop, and get some delicious foods before finding our seats. We sat down just in time for the entrance...
We had a great time cheering on the Cowboys in their dominating performance against the Eagles. Being surrounded by Cowboys fans and yelling together for the first playoff victory since 1996 was great. We truly couldn't have asked for a better game or trip!
Winning celebrations
Next Up: Minnesota.
LET'S GO COWBOYS!!!
Hoping for Playoff Victory #2...
