Book Character Parade

We dressed up as Cat in the Hat, Thing 1, and Thing 2 for our book character day at school.

Randal dressed up as Buzz Lightyear!

Here's Bethany and Zachary with their class.

I snapped a picture of them playing together on the playground...I love my little Things!

Friends

Bethany, Zachary, and Jake got to have a playdate this morning...

I think Jake won the race!

Eating popcorn and watching a movie.

 Look how all the cars are lined up.  It's so fun to watch them play together!

Go Cowboys

We're ready for Monday night football!

Homecoming Game

I got to see my grandad (Bob Hodges) in the Grapevine homecoming parade on Thursday as the 1941 Coming Home King.  Then we went to the football game tonight, and he was introduced on the field.  It was so fun!

This was before the game...too bad he didn't get to throw a football.  He used to be the GHS quarterback!

I think he enjoyed it :)

The kids LOVED their first football game and were taking everything in.

Future Food Network Stars

I got a video of Bethany and Zachary "cooking" this morning.  They love to pretend they're stirring and eating, and Bethany always says she's cooking an onion.  Saying onion can also mean she wants to watch a cooking show on tv.  I guess I was watching the food network one day, and that's where it started.

Getting Pampered

What a fun weekend!  My best friend came into town with her family, and we got to have a girl's day.  We got pedicures, shopped around the Southlake Town Center, and even got feathers in our hair.  Hope you have a happy 30th birthday, Christi!

Pedicures!

We tried to get a picture of all of our kids.  Not too bad :)

Park

We met my friend Kim at a park by their house this morning.  Bethany and Jake were having fun on the swings!

While Jake and Zachary were running around, Bethany was busy eating snacks :)

Zachary climbed right up the stairs...

And then he went down the slide (over and over).

We played in our backyard after lunch, and Bethany has been obsessed with "cooking" lately.  She stirs her spoon in a bowl, and when you ask what she's cooking, she says ONIONS!

Back to School

We survived our first day of preschool.  Taking pictures at 7:30 in the morning is never a good time to get smiles.  At least they're dressed!!

Labor Day

We enjoyed spending the night in Granbury, and as you can see, they sure need some rain!  The lake was as low as I've ever seen it.  We got to walk around on the "beach" by their dock.  And the weather was SO nice...I think we spent the majority of our time outside!

Hunting for shells and sticks.

Playing on our own beach!

Bethany and Uncle Adam

We always have fun at Grandma and Papaw's house.  I think they were ready for naps!

Bounce House

While I'm on hold with the AT&T customer service people, I thought I'd update with some pictures.  We've been going to the Grapevine Community Center on Thursdays for playtime, and the kids have loved jumping in their bounce house.  See for yourself!
