Feelin' Pumpkinish

If you are a Zoboomofoo fan you may get that reference..lol! Anyway...we hit up the pumpkin patch at The Woodlands United Methodist Church with the purpose of finding our "pumpkin family." According to Katie we must get a pumpkin for every member of our family. We were successful and got some cute pics to boot! They guy working there was a hoot...he made funny disney character voices. :D

Oh So Spooky!

First off...Katie wants me to tell everyone to pretend you hear spooky music. She is very proud of her haunted house and has been working very hard on getting everything just perfect. Mommy on the other hand was about the throw the thing in the trash trying to line up the various cut outs and edges which weren't cut "just perfect." But alas...it came out perfectly imperfect and perfect spooky! And it really does play perfectly spooky music!

Halloween Preview!

My Mom's Group had their Fall Festival this week and it's a nice little dry run of Halloween. It's also nice that we get to wear our costumes more than once! Here's Ryan all dudded up as Sheriff Woody from Toy Story...and Katie will be Jessie! All her idea by the way! Who am I to say no to coordinating costumes!?? She had to miss out on the fun due to school. Boo!

I know I'm biased but I think he's the cutest thing EVER even though he wouldn't cooperate for pictures ;)

Dewberry Farms!

4 Years ago almost to the day we went to Dewberry Farms...One less kid and a couple feet :)


The place would be a blast if you could have half the amount of people and if it were 10 degrees cooler. Although I shouldn't complain...it was beautiful weather by TX standards!

Katie had a blast!


Ryan decided he didn't want to have fun until 2 hours in when we all were exhausted, grumpy and ready to get out of dodge. He LOVED the animals and riding the "hayride" out to pick pumpkins.


Maybe we'll go back in another 4 years :)

Soccer Super Star

Grandma was here this weekend...life was good, Katie was in heaven!


Katie is having a ton of fun with soccer and she was excited to show Grandma all about it. She loves doing anything with her pal Jackson. Jackson I must add...is a super good sport. How many boys would let a girl hug on them all the time ;)

Piggy Back

Funniest series of pictures EVER!


Poor Daddy...meanwhile Katie and Grandma look adorable :) We introduced Grandma to the shopping mecca known as Charming Charlies :D

Smilin' and Swingin' and Hello October!

October came with a welcome cool down in temps...can I get an AMEN Texas peeps???? I cannot get enough of being outside. I think we have the opposite type of seasonal dissorder that you hear about in the Northwest. I get depressed in the summer and being stuck inside hiding from the opressive heat!

Anyway...it's BEAUTIFUL right now...I hope it stays!

Here are the kids playing on the swings. They can't get enough and it's just about the only thing want to do outside. Ryan loves to swing like a big boy and is getting pretty good! Now if I can get him to not get off randomly and run in front of his sister :S




Katie looking sweet and Ryan looking a bit crazy :)


Katie making Mirabelle "fly"


No worries...no SERIOUS injuries were caused. Just a couple boo boos
