Our Weekend...

On Saturday, we enjoyed a picnic lunch while watching the local air show. The weather was gorgeous! The Blue Angels performed later in the day, however, Landon has been a bit under the weather so we didn't stay long enough to watch them.Watching airplanes.
David taught Landon how to make semi's honk!

Saturday evening, we went to a neighbors costume party for a bit. I love going to costume parties and seeing all the costumes. My favorite ones are the homemade ones!! We went as the game board Twister and I thought it turned out so cute!

A Twister Family--Landon was in no mood for pictures!
A cute Twister boy.

An old couple.

This grandma was so life like up close...it was sort of creepy!
The kids played organized games like Simon Says and Bobbin' for Apples outside.My cute little guy playing games.
Kitty Litter (this was supposedly very good, however, I couldn't get past the looks of it)Eye balls. I brought these tasty little cake balls...they were yummy!!

David took Landon trick-or-treating to a few of the neighbors houses this evening, so I will get some pictures of that posted within the next few days! Landon went as a Redskin football player!

I often wonder what Landon will be when he grows up to be an adult.

Maybe one day he will be a firefighter,
or an astronomer,

or a Texas Longhorn,

or a doctor.

What ever this boy grows up to be I am going to love him just the same. He is such a blessing to our lives.

Go Rangers!!

We are not huge Rangers fans around here, but it's hard not to get into all the hype that is surrounding us since they are going to the World Series.

This morning I had to put Landon in his Rangers shirt since they are playing tonight!
So, tonight we will be yelling, "GO RANGERS!!"

Happy 50th Birthday, Mom!

Happy Birthday, Mom!

We are so blessed to have you in our lives. We are thankful that we were able to celebrate with you this past weekend! As grandmother would say, 'Celebrate ALL year!!'

Enjoy your special day! We love you!

Medieval Times

On Saturday, Landon and I went to Medieval Times with my mom, her 4 sisters, and my grandmother to celebrate my mom's 50th birthday!

David and I went to Medieval Times back when we were dating and we had so much fun, so I was excited to take Landon and spent some time with some very special ladies! My mom, grandmother, and aunts. This is one very fun group of ladies! There is NEVER a dull moment when they get together!
Mom and Landon before the show.

My sweet little guy!

I'm not sure what is going on in this picture, but it was too funny not to post!

Landon cheering on the red team!

We had a wonderful evening celebrating mom's 50th birthday!!

Rain Boots

I found a pair of rain boots on clearance at Wal-Mart for Landon and I just couldn't pass them up! They are a little big, but that just means that he will be able to wear them for several seasons!

Landon put them on as soon as we got home! Landon's sitter has a muddy backyard in spots due to some remodeling, and two of Landon's friends there always bring their rain boots to wear when they play in the backyard so that their regular shoes don't get muddy. Now Landon will have a pair of rain boots to wear, too!! I think he looks so cute in them!!

State Fair

We spent the entire day on Saturday at the State Fair, and it was SO crowded, however, the weather was absolutely gorgeous, so it was totally worth it!

The carousel was the only ride that we rode the whole day!! My cute little guy waiting for the dog show to start.

I think Landon's favorite part of the day was the petting zoo. He walked around with his little cup of feed acting like he owned the place! Ha!

We made it to the petting zoo pretty late in the day, so, of course, some of the animals weren't very hungry. Landon had no problem bossing them around. He would holler at the goats, "Come here!! It's time to eat!!" Then he would yell even louder when they ignored his food filled hands poking through the fence.

So sweet!

We really wanted to try some of the fried food, however, the lines were always so long for the things that we were interested in. The line for the fried cookie dough was always the longest! Doesn't fried cookie dough sound so good? It does to me!! Maybe next year!
We finished up the day watching a parade followed by a light and fireworks show. We took the train into Dallas as we knew the traffic would be horrendous. We didn't check the train schedule for the times coming home and we ended up waiting at the train station for over an hour, which made for a super late night!! We were one exhausted bunch by the time we made it home!!
