Random Sampling October 2010

 Before church...Halloween day!

 Halloween festivities at my parents' house after church.  Sadie loves Grandpa!!

Fall Festival Outing Extravaganza & Trunk or Treat!

 Every year Del puts together a family get-together where we go and have a picnic with my mom and dad, cousin Julie and my bro. and his family.  This year my bros. family didn't come, but we still had fun!!

  I think this was our 3rd annual Fall Festival Outing Extravaganza...or 4th...

 We were close to a playground area and so that is where Sadie wanted to spend most of her time and so that is where I spent most of my time too!

 Del and Dad were in charge of cooking the burgers and sausage.

 For some reason, Trey was scared of the wind...we figured out days later that I think it stems from a church movie he saw when he was little and a boy gets stuck somewhere and Trey thought the wind made...anyway, it's a long story.

 Sadie running...

 The fabulous cooks!

 After the FFOE we headed over to church and did a trunk or treat...

 Del won this at work...:)

 A view of just a part of the parking lot.

The gang...plus the photographer behind the camera...which makes the complete family.  :)

The Arboretum

 My mom and I took the kids to the arboretum on Thurs. since they have all their Halloween/fall stuff out and we thought it would be something fun for the kids.  I was hoping to get some good pictures too, of the kids, but seriously, I don't know how photographers do it!  :)  You'll see what I mean as you scroll down! 

 Sadie's not so sure about what she is sitting on!

Sadie loved the flowers! 

Trying to get a good shot of brother and sister sitting together smiling on a bench.  :) 

 Still attempting to get that shot.

 Sweet Trey.

 Sadie LOVES to run away when we are anywhere outside of the house.  Here is my mom in the background bringing her back, and Trey running to me.

 Again, trying to get a good shot of Sadie, but she is interested in the camera and moves closer.

 Our pack mule (the stroller).

 Sadie running.

 A little old house.

 Sadie loved the pot she found inside the house. 

Trey inside a teepee. 

 Covered wagon.

 I had to get a picture of Sadie's cute tennis shoes.  They sparkle.

 Home from the arboretum and ready for a nap!  Sadie always sleeps with her pink soft blankie and her kitty...and now she likes to have a little book in bed too.

 Here's a shot of J's 7 month photo!  Happy 7 months JJ!

Halloween Part 2

 Trey is on the front row...Buzz Lightyear.  This is his pre-k class.

 He got to pick a pumpkin and have treats.  The parents were able to go and take pictures.

 I had to get a picture of the 3 kids on the stroller.  I push all three kids like this and get A LOT of stares!

 Pumpkins and snacks.

This is a random picture of a really awesome puppet show that I took the kids to today at the Plano library.  I have never seen anything like it.  It was so cool!  They had audio playing and several different large puppets and the cutest puppet play...This is a puppet theater built into the wall with like a room back behind where the puppeteers stand behind a curtain...so fun!

Haallooowwweeeennnn...part I

Sadie is a little confused about potty training...

 J is sleeping in his pack n play now...

Once a week Sadie, James and I go to something at church called "Music Makers" with other friends around Sadie's age.  The mom's take turns doing songs, reading books, having snacks and marching to music, etc.  It's a  lot of fun.  This was our halloween themed music makers where everyone wore their costumes and exchanged candy and did different fun activities.  Sadie is a strawberry fairy!

 Parading their costumes...

 Sadie shaking her musical instrument.

J is a horse. 

 Eating candy after the candy exchange.

All the fun put Sadie right to sleep.
