Halloween weekend

We had a super Halloween weekend. Friday we went to the Fort Worth Zoo for their annual "Boo at the Zoo" event. It was Heidi's first trip to the zoo and she was fearless around the animals! The same little girl that just four months ago was petrified, terrified, pee-in-your-pants scared of any animal mascot in the same room as her, came "thisclose" to the tigers (with glass between, of course), snakes, birds, and more. It was so much fun. The sad part was that my camera's battery died as soon as I pulled it out and I didn't get any pictures. Lesson learned.

Saturday was Denton Bible Church's fall family festival. This was our second year to go and it was a blast. Pony rides, a petting zoo, train rides, carnival games, bounce houses, face painting, candy...what more could a kid ask for.Tonight, of course, was trick or treating around the neighborhood. Tobin rode his scooter and Heidi hitched a ride in her favorite pink car and we were off on a candy hunt. It was a such a fun night!

Anyone out there?

Hi there! Remember me? Does anyone even read this thing anymore? I can't believe it's been so long since I've written. Even now, I don't have much time to update so here's some pictures of what we've been up to the last couple of months. I'm so happy fall is finally here (although it doesn't quite feel like it yet since the weather's still in the 90's). Matt has finished his volleyball season, I'm doing my first craft show in two weeks, the kids are wonderfully busy, and the Rangers are going to the World Series. That's all the excitement going on at our house right now! Okay, here's the pictures of the kids since I know that's what everyone wants to see!

We took a very fun trip to the new Fort Worth science and history museum with one of Tobin's best buds, Beck. Here are the kids digging for dinosaur bones.
Heidi's favorite part was the play grocery store. I think she would have pushed this cart around all day:I loved watching Tobin's face as he learned how to hoola-hoop:
We did new landscaping in our front yard and put out some of our favorite Halloween decorations:


Last week we took a trip to our favorite pumpkin patch.
Happy Halloween!>
