Church Friends

Ready for Young Wives at church...

Gotta love the 80's

WOW...glad we don't dress like that anymore!

Halloween this year has been somewhat different because we didn't do our party this year. But that sure didn't stop us from going non stop! It actually was really nice to do so much together as a family and not feel stressed about a party.

Here are the boys ready for their school parade on Thursday

My Superheros:
Dash and Spiderman

Micah in his parade

And Sam with his class parade

The boys had a great day with the parade and party at school

1st Field Trip

Sam had his 1st field trip last week to the pumpkin patch!
It was so fun to see him interact with the other kids in his class.
I wish I could post some of the other pictures with his friends.
Especially his girlfriend, Claire!
She is precious and they hold hands and stand by each other in line.
Sam says that he loves her!

My Sam is getting so big!!!

Teacher Gift

This was my teacher's gift this year for the boy's teachers.
Thanks to Anders Ruff for the cute labels. I am in LOVE with this website!
And thanks to Annalee for the snackmix recipe and How Does She for the caramel dipping sauce recipe. I could not be so creative without the internet! Thanks girls!

The Incredibles

Meet The Incredibles:
Violet, Jack Jack, and Dash
also know as: McKenzie, Will, and Sam

These are our sweet friends from church, so fun that they wanted to be the Incredibles too!

Love this next picture of Sam in character!

Halloween is so fun with friends!!!

Oil Ranch

This was our first year to visit the Oil Ranch that is super close to our house.
We will be making this a new tradition in our family!
We had a great day, just the 4 of us!

If you know me well, I LOVE pumpkin pictures...

We brought our lunch and enjoyed a great picnic

Once you get in, then everything is free!!!

Milking a cow

Hayride

Learning about the indians

and a free pumpkin!!!

It was a wonderful day!!!

Aunt Audrey and Uncle Taylor

Aud and Taylor came in for a wedding and got to stay about a week.
The boys were SO excited to see Taylor!!
It had been forever since we have seen him, I think since Christmas...

So here are the boys loving on Uncle Taylor

And of course, they are ALWAYS happy to see their Aunt Audrey!

We love you Aunt Audrey and Uncle Taylor!!!
We can't wait to see you at Christmas!

A Love for Hippos

After we finished with Camp Gigi the boys REALLY wanted to go to the San Antonio Zoo to see the hippos. My boys LOVE hippos and we don't have any at our zoo. I was just hoping it would be worth stopping.
