I recapped our Waco/Dallas trip from a little over a week ago on Instagram (the likes of which I haven’t done in a long time), and I thought I would do the same in a (really) longform blog post. But I haven’t. Simple as that. I still want to, but not all at once. Otherwise, I’d probably be posting it in December. Anyway, I think I’m going to just put out bits and pieces here and there as I feel so inspired. I’ll still have it to look back on that way.

So starting backwards, here’s my souvenirs from our trip:

IN WACO

Magnolia - I got a cute spoon rest. We’ve been here before, so I have a magnet for our fridge and a couple of other things. The spoon rest was the perfect little souvenir.

Dr. Pepper Museum - Again, we’ve been here. My husband got a lot of stuff because he’s a big DP guy, but I just did a smashed penny. Might put a pin backing on it and add to my travel pin collection.

Waco Mammoth National Monument - I got a pin for my travel pin collection.

Homestead Heritage - We’ve also been here. This time, I bought this beautiful matted roadrunner watercolor to add to my bird art wall.

IN DALLAS:

Globe Life Field / Texas Rangers - This was a revisit too, so I have things from here. This time, I got another pin for my travel pin collection.

Sweet and simple things. I didn’t spend way too much. Not everything is “branded.” And I really like it all. Exactly how I like to do souvenirs.
