Our Dallas Staycation

Birthdays have looked much different this past year and with Austin’s birthday (today!), I wanted to celebrate him in a way that was safe, yet allowed us to feel like we were on an actual vacation. I surprised him with a Dallas staycation over the weekend and we had the best time.

Highly recommend taking a little staycation if your city is open. It was great for our mental health and like I said, felt like a mini vacation.

We stayed at The Thompson which just opened a few weeks ago. We loved the hotel and overall vibe. The spa was closed, but we walked down the street to the Adolphus and got a massage (we prefer the Joule spa but it books out SO FAR in advance now with COVID).

For dining, we wanted to stay on property. If you can, grab a reservation at Catbird for drinks and small plates. We went at 5:00p and it wasn’t very crowded and people were spaced out. It felt very safe. They also have contact-free room service if that’s more your thing! We ate brunch at the Nine and it was truly incredible (get the sourdough pancakes).

Here’s a few snapshots from our birthday weekend! Thanks for reading xx AR
