Our week in pictures

Ohh, October. How busy you've become.

Painting our pumpkin patch pumpkins:They ended up having more fun mixing the colors and their pumpkins ended up black!
My mom's birthday last weekend:
Happy Birthday, Gran!
Birthday Coconut Cake
Monday was a holiday, so my sister and I went to the state fair with the kiddos. My dad says that I have been, but I do not remember such things. It was busy, hot and EXPENSIVE. I'm not sure this will make the cut as an annual thing for us.
From the aerial tram:The "train" that Walker and Lucy chose to rideCotton candy!!!

I brought a cookie cake up to Lucy's school today to share with her class. She was so surprised!
They both had "awesome" days at school, so I took them to the park. The weather is great right now, and they had fun. Here is a frame by frame of my fearless one, climbing the rock wall.
Looking forward to birthday weekend fun for my sweet girl!!

Ya'll always do such fun things! We went to the state fair and I was thinking how expensive it would be to go with a family!

Jason was off Saturday, and I was really looking forward to a family weekend. He usually works Saturdays, but when he is off and we get 2 days in a row all together, we are so happy!! Friday night he called on his way home from work, and told the kids to get dressed in their cowboy boots, we were going somewhere. The kids got so excited, and ran to their rooms. Lucy got some new cowgirl boots for Christmas (2 pairs, actually), and has been wearing them alot!! They got all dressed up in their cowboy stuff and we waited for Daddy to get home. He took us to Trail Dust Steakhouse in Arlington, and he invited my sisters, too. It was so fun!! I hadn't been there since my 16th birthday party, and the kids had a blast; sliding down the slide, dancing on the dance floor and eating yummy steak. It was such a fun night!!! If you wear a tie, they cut it off and put it on their wall!! He wore an old tie on purpose The weekend just kept getting better!! Yesterday, Jason and I had a great date ni...

Well, you find things like this in your backyard: There are lots of fun things about living "out" here and having more than an acre of land to explore. We have roadrunners, roosters, chickens, lizards (apparently!), bonfires, and lots of fun. The kids were so intrigued. They have really developed a love for animals and outdoors A close up of our friend

Happy Spring Break to Walker and Lucy!!

This week Walker and Lucy are off from ARK School. They are actually NOT excited, they love school!! Caitlin is home this week, too, though so that is fun. We had a great weekend to end my break and kick off the kids. Saturday , we drove to a drive-in theater in Granbury. Colleen (my friend and Walker's teacher) told us about this drive-in and it was showing Horton Hears a Who!, so we decided to check it out. I am so glad there is still one around. Drive-ins are just one of those things I have great memories of and want to do with my kids. At the drive-in, with a good spot. Being comfy in our jim jammers!! Enjoying our picnic dinner. Fruit skewers, pb&j roll-ups, and cheetos!! Sunday , we had a great family lunch at mom's, then it was off to the TCU Easter Egg Hunt. The kids looked so cute, and had fun hunting eggs. However, they could not be persuaded to take pictures with the Easter Bunny or Super Frog. Oh, well. Lucy, looking around for some eggs Showing off his loot! My...
