The Letters "C" & "D"

We've been moving right along in preschool...
The letter "C" gluing Cheerio's to make a C!
A couple of our letter "D" projects consisted of "dogs"

And digging for dinosaurs!
The girls are still having fun and learning a lot!

Family Time at the Revel!

We had plans for a family fun night at the Revel after Daddy got out of football practice. Football takes up a lot of his time and he is WONDERFUL about doing things with us during any free time he has. Hannah decided she wanted to ride the Ferris Wheel. This is the first "big" ride she's ever rode on or even wanted to ride on.

Daddy and Hannah in line...
Her little "cheerleaders"
Hannah waving, she is ready to go!
Getting strapped in and I'm just waiting for the panic and her wanting off...
Yep, still here cheering her on...
But, boy was I wrong, this girl LOVED every second of the ride. Just look at that smile!!



Well, after Priss saw how much fun Hannah was having guess what...
It was our turn!
Now, I REALLY didn't know how this was going to go because one, I'm not a fan of these rides and two, Hayley wasn't 100% sure either.
Bravely waving but not letting go for ANYTHING!

We did great and she loved it! Guess we will be doing that again next year.

Next, it was off to the "store" for some grocery shopping.
After the store, the girls wanted to get their face painted so, we headed over to get it done at 7:40 and they were CLOSED! Although this was the sign at the entrance...
And, as you can imagine the melt downs began. The people were still in the tent with all their stuff set out (cleaning up) and with three little girls crying and throwing fits at 7:40, they still wouldn't paint their faces!! Mama bear was in full force for sure! I called and complained and we got free tickets to come back!

Luckily, we found the clown and he made them some balloon hats, that made it somewhat better.
We had a great time on our little family outing. LOVE getting that time together making memories!

Family Fun & Breakfast

Sunday morning after our company left, we decided to go to McDonald's, have breakfast and let the kids play. We NEVER expected to see this...

(Hayley at the top left, SB and Hannah in the bottom right)
Yep, that would be our little SB way up at the top. This kid fears NOTHING!!

Landry's 3rd Brithday Party!

The twins little friend Landry, had a Halloween Carnival/Dress up birthday party. It was AWESOME, and the girls had a BLAST!
All the decorations were so cute!


Hannah, Landry, Katlin, and Hayley
Getting ready to sing "Happy Birthday"


There was even a clown making balloon animals.
My little Princess Bell and Princess Cheerleader (costumes of their choice) had so much fun!!

Weekend Fun!

It has kinda become a tradition for Mima, Morgan, and Gyvonne to come visit for the weekend during Red River Revel. The kids LOVE it and the adults get to take a lot of pictures...HA!

Morgan helping SB with her "grocery" list...

Hannah is on a mission to complete her list...
Gyvonne wanted to participate too!
Hayley getting everything (and more) on her list...
Hannah needed some eggs...
Hayley and her fruit! This kid is going to turn into fruit she eats so much of it!

Yep, that's SB with not two but THREE BIG boxes of Goldfish (her favorite snack)!
So, we did more than that but, those are the only pictures I took. The Brookshire's "Store" is by far their favorite thing to do there!!

Saturday night, we had a "campfire" (as Hayley calls it). We roasted hot dogs and made smores.

Ummm, and my socks...
We had a fun time with them and can't wait until next year!

Mama's Little Helper

Hannah has become quite the little helper around the house. She loves to dust, help vacuum, fold clothes, and help cook!

I just hope it lasts awhile and the others will join in!!
