Three things to get out and do in DFW

The Trinity River Audubon Center has over five miles of trails, which are perfect for a Spring hike. You can take a nature class, spend some time bird watching, or even camp overnight with a reservation. If your kiddos want to spend some time outside while they are out of school, you can check out their fabulous Spring and Summer Camps. Considered the ‘largest urban forest in the United States’, the Trinity River Audubon Center is an adventure for all ages!

Although you won’t be getting back to nature, a unique way to spend an evening outside with the family is at a Texas Ranger’s Baseball game at the Globe Life Park in Arlington. With reasonable ticket prices and games throughout the Spring and Summer, your family is sure to enjoy an evening spent under the stars watching Dallas’ home team. Even if you’re not a fan of baseball, you’ll enjoy the atmosphere, food, and fun of the game!

If you’re anything like me (and most moms I know), you might be a little obsessed with the TV show Fixer Upper. Well, if you want to spend a day feeling like Joanna Gaines walking through the antique market, cute boutique shops, and hand crafted wood shops, take a trip slightly outside of Dallas to Canton for their monthly First Monday Trade Days. Every weekend before the first Monday of the month, hundreds of vendors set up shop in this huge combination indoor/outdoor market. If you really want to make it an outdoor adventure, you can camp overnight in the nearby Purtis Creek State Park.
