Jack O Lanterns

We made Jack O Lanterns with the kids last night. It was so much fun!!! They had the most fun seeing them lit up. We all picked out the faces, drew them on and cut them out. Neither one liked the gooey insides and didn't want to try cinnamon and sugar roasted pumpkin seeds, but Mom and Dad had a blast. I think they like pumpkins with candy inside the best!! Happy Halloween!!!!

Fun in Ozarks

We spent several days last week in Arkansas. We go every year to visit some craft shows, four wheel and just relax in the quite hillside of the Ozarks with family. We had a great time this year. Here are some pics from the trip.

Number 3

It is so hard to believe that almost three years ago I brought this beautiful, tiny baby girl home. She is still beautiful and tiny, but not a baby. She can carry on a conversation, go to the potty, and has to do everything herself. My how time flies! Here are pics of her parties on Saturday. Yes that is parties. I ran myself ragged Saturday with a friend party followed by a family party. Thanks so much to Summer who helped make the friend party so wonderful for both our girls!!!! Also to our family who made Emily's day very special!!! (but I don't think I'll do two the same day again)

Should We Be Concerned?

For all of you who know our family football ties, the picture below is concerning. Emily colored this Tuesday at Sonshine School. Needless to say I was shocked and wondered were we went wrong? Having an orange football, in a red football home is strange and confusing and we find ourselves wondering if this is a sign of things to come??? Don't get me wrong, we have no problem with the color orange itself, but when combined with the football, this is worrisome. I think this means we have more teaching to do. We like OSU, except the beginning of October when they play OU, but if this is for Texas, well, we have some serious discussions ahead of us. :-)

Emily's First Date

Emily had her first date last night. Disney's Princess on Ice is at the State Fair and her Daddy took her out to see it. She got dressed up for the occasion and had a wonderful time. Randon said she watched intently and he bought her a banner to commemorate the event. She fell asleep on the way home, but woke up to tell me about it and show me the pictures Daddy took. She was even sweet enough to get me a cinnamon roll before heading home. I think it was a very special night for them both!

Ready for a fun night with Dad!

This one is blurry, but you can tell she is enjoying the show!

She didn't want to miss a thing.

Coming home from a wonderful date with Dad.

Mexico Fun

Here are a few pics from our trip to Mexico at the end of July. We went to a quite town south of Playa and had an amazing 5th anniversary trip.
