Red Ribbon Parade

To conclude Stay Drug-free week the kids from all the schools get to participate in a parade!  Kaleigh has been so excited about it and she thought it was so cool even though we basically walked around the block!  It was fun because she was able to walk with the infamous Cayden and her beloved teacher, Mrs. Collingsworth!

Stay Drug-Free Week

Kaleigh's first school project that had to be done at home.  Presenting her Leaf Princess!

"Sock" it to drugs day (Crazy Sock day)

Camo day (only in TX does every child own camo)

Crazy Hat day

Sports Jersey Day (At least someone was wearing the right colors)

Museum Trip

We have been here in wonderful Texas for a year now which means that our yearly memberships to our favorite places are just about to expire so here are pictures from one of our last trips to the CC Museum!

Pumpkin Picking

So we discovered that pumpkin picking and fall-related activities are not quite the same in Texas as they would be in NY or any other colder state but nonetheless we had fun!  We went with the Erdners to a local church and picked out some pumpkins and took some pictures.  We enjoyed dinner and then ice cream on the beach!  It was a gorgeous fall day and then the girls came home and decorated their pumpkins with face stickers.  Fun stuff!

Goooooal!

Today was Kaleigh's 5th soccer game and she played awesome!  She scored twice (even though one counted for the other team) and she hustled, dribbled and ran so hard!  I am so proud of her and feel horrible that this exciting news cannot be accompanied by pictures because I forgot the camera today.  I hope the little soccer player keeps it up and I'll catch her in action next week!  Now I understand why parents are so intense on the sidelines.  I'm not gonna lie I was into it and yelling with excitement quite a bit!  It was so fun and I am such a proud soccer mom today!

BOWLING!

Cheering!

Lucas and Amelia

Today we went with some friends to the good ole bowling alley and had a blast.  It was the girls first time and Kaleigh really liked it!  Loganne of course did not play but was so excited for the other kids she didn't really care.  She enjoyed cheering and snackin'.  So much fun and definitely an activity we will be doing again.  After bowling we went to Los Comales (awesome Mexican food) and then we hit McDonalds' play place!  It was such a great afternoon/evening and now everyone is pooped and ready for some zzzzz's!
