Pumpkin Time at the Arboretum

Every year since Jax and Cooper were born, Wanissa and I have met up at the Arboretum to have some pumpkin fun with the kids this time of year. There is a hay maze, petting zoo, pumkin houses and plenty of other places for them to run and play. This year wore me out a bit more because of Jake. He was all over the place but had a great time. By the end of the morning, I had 2 tired boys. We wore them out good. We tried to get a picture of Jax and Cooper as we were leaving and boy was that a bad idea...they were both screaming and not cooperating...it was pretty funny. Enjoy the pictures!

Cedar Hill Football

Jax finally got to go to a home game for Cedar Hill. Jeremy helps out in the booth for the varsity games so we finally went to one - Cedar Hill vs Midlothian. Cedar Hill killed Midlothian so it wasn't much of a game but Jax enjoyed the field after the game was over. Cedar Hill does the school song and then the longhorn stampede where the kids get to run down the field after the game. Jax enjoyed it very much. Some of Jeremy's football players ran with him and tried to teach him the school song. He had a great time. He was the last one of the field...literally. They were cleaning up and we bribed him with cookies to get him to leave. We had a great night. I don't think Jeremy will ever forget it!

We also had western day at mother's day out this week. Had to include a picture of that as well...here ya go!

State Fair of Texas 2011

Another year at the fair - we had a great time as always. Well, Jake might have screamed a few times because he didn't want to be in the stroller but what's new! When we got there we went and looked at the police horses and then enjoyed a dog show. Jake sat completely still and even clapped. I was shocked. After that, we got the boys an ice cream and saw the marine corp band. After that we went and saw Big Tex (Jax calls him "Big Woody" from toy story) We then got the boys some cotton candy and looked at the rides. Jax had no interest in riding anything! We walked around some more and finished our afternoon with a corny dog, french fries and lemonade. On our way out, we took the boys to the petting zoo. Jax got to feed a few animals - they loved it! Jake didn't make it home. That's how I know I did my job...I wore him out! Enjoy our pictures.
