18 years

Brian & I celebrated our 18th Anniversary today.

We had planned on going to Victoria, so Kade convinced Noah into getting some of their money to take us out to eat.  We finally decided on Texas Roadhouse, and it was a good choice.

Praise God from whom all Blessings flow!!!

PawPaw's Birthday Costume Party

My dad's birthday is the day before Halloween so about 4 years ago we decided to have celebrate his Birthday with a costume party, and have been doing it ever since.... 

Well, today was the day for the annual PawPaw's Birthday Costume Celebration...

...we weren't real sure we would have it because he was sick last week and was in the hospital Thursday thru Saturday, but he's doing much better and we were ready to celebrate...

...Now what you've been waiting for.....

...the pictures......

yes, our son had to play the biggest joke with his costume

much better!!!!

weekend getaway

When we bought our travel trailer we talked about trying to getaway even during football season...

...well, easier said than done...

...but this weekend we did it...

...St Paul had an open weekend, so us and our good friends took advantage...

...we always have such a good time, and this time didn't disappoint either...

...we rode bikes, had a camp fire, grilled, relaxed, played horseshoes...

...we even watched the Aggie game with our neighbors (& new friends) that we met that morning... ...being a part of the Aggie family is so awesome!

We can't wait to head out to the trailerhood again, hopefully sooner rather than later.

corn maze field trip

It's that time of the year...corn maze!!! 

and Kade's class went there on a field trip...

lucky for me Brian drove the bus so I have some pictures

this & that....

...there's always something going on around here...

I know I have been bad and not posting, but some evening I don't even turn the computer on, so here's a little bit of this & that with what's been going on...

Junior High Football has come to and end, which makes Noah very happy....watching from the sidelines was rough on him....

...so that means Basketball has started...

good news for him, he has been release from therapy and has started practice today...

The fall garden is planted and growing and looking very good - we can't wait to have the fresh cabbage, broccoli and other veggies....

I actually got the fall decorations out too....pretty proud of myself....

I love driving up and seeing these cuties greeting me

And we are (almost) finished with our latest project...the thought is that it will be a grill area

Pumpkin Patch

This weekend was the pumpkin patch in our small town, they had all kind of activities going on...

but with my guys, it was go, take a few pictures and leave

...we were there maybe a total of 10 minutes...

...maybe...

...and that's because we had Conner & Cierra with us...

Net's Birthday

Net's trying to catch me in age...and as of today she's a year closer...

Happy Birthday!!!!

Hope you enjoyed your little surprises (like going out to eat last night)....

I didn't get a picture of her with her cake cuz she was eating it before I got there with the camera.

Cool!!

The weather that is....

It's been in the 50s in the morning and 80s in the afternoons - actually yesterday it didn't even make it to the 80s

...we are so enjoying it!!
