As part of of my ‘me time’ today, I went to the Asian Festival in Dallas together with my girl friends. My dear husband took care our darling daughter today. I woke up very early for this trip. It was a pleasant day to go to Downtown Dallas. My friend, who lives just a mile from my house, picked me up this morning.
My darling daughter was still sound asleep when I left this morning. I know she will be looking for me when she wakes up. But I told her last night that I will be gone for a while today and will be back in the afternoon. I also told her that she and daddy will be planting more seeds in the vegetable garden. Our little princess likes to help in the garden. And she is very interested in planting. So she already had the idea of tomorrow’s activity.
Because I am used to going out with darling daughter with me, leaving the house for a girls’ day out or party makes me feel guilty sometimes. But I know deep within me that I need to get out of the house by myself once in a while. My husband is very understanding. That’s why I love him more and more.
At the festival, me and my friends had a great time. We looked around for interesting booths from different Asian cultures. We saw nice cultural performances.
Playing the roulette. My friend won a hand sanitizer. I won the same thing, too.

The Maharlika Dancers performing one of the Philippine Folk Dances – Tinikling
One of the things caught my attention was the fountain by the entrance of the venue. I saw kids enjoying themselves splashing and getting wet in the hot sun. I thought of my little girl while I was looking at the kids having fun. If she was with me today, she would’ve dragged me to the fountain in no time wanting to join the kids as they play in the water.
Fountain of fun!
The festival was held in Main Street Garden in Downton Dallas. It was a successful event.
what fun and what an awesome hubby
Yes, everyone-even Mom’s need some ME time once in a while!! That looks like a great place to visit with your friends and I am sure you had a great time. And I will bet your daughter had a great time with Dad!!

Looks like you had a great time. Hopefully your husband enjoyed his father/daughter day.
I love getting to have grown-up time for myself when the husband watches the kiddo.
I bet the dancers were fun to watch! Looks like a good time. Hopefully you had a lot of fun.
I did, Corinne. I was picturing myself performing on the stage. 🙂
It looks like a super fun day! I would probably run through that water myself!
I was nearly tempted to run and play with the fountain. 🙂
That’s neat. You get to see other asian people in that festival and I’m sure everyone is friendly.
