Alumni Band Weekend

Alumni Band was last weekend.  I had a great time seeing my friends and playing with my flag.

Flag Girls

The boys had a lot of fun at the Friday night family event.  Gabriel and Kase had a little chill time together, and Noah enjoyed watching the clown with Kaiden (and all the other kids).

Gabriel’s First Steps

Gabriel is learning to walk. Watch out world! Here’s a little video of the goings on in our house…

Trick-or-Treat

This is the spooky pumpkin that Noah and Daddy carved.

Spooky

Noah fed Gabriel a bottle so we could get ready for trick-or-treating faster.

Getting Ready

A robot, a monkey, and a bride… all ready for trick-or-treating.

Chris and Nancy came over to trick-or-treat with us and watch the Longhorn football game.  I guess you can tell what their priority was.  Hook ‘Em Horns!

Noah filled up his Thomas bucket quickly.

Our little monkey couldn’t have cared less that he was trick-or-treating.

Pumpkin Patch Time

We went to Sweet Berry Farms for our annual pumpkin patch fun.  This year we were lucky and Uncle Ryan and Aunt Erin were in town and got to go with us.  We had so much fun.  We did a little fishin’.  We did a little paintin’.  We did a little plowin’.  We did a little ridin’.  We did a little racin’.  Uncle Ryan was convinced he could beat Noah in the pumpkin water race.  I think he won one out of five.  The maze was closed due to all the rain, but we had a great time anyway.

Hard at Work

Here’s Noah’s class hard at work.  They traced their bodies and then they had to color them in.  Noah’s looks great.  By the way, Noah is on the far side of the room in front of the piano.

Family Time

My cousin Stephanie and her family came for a visit to Austin this week.  We really enjoyed spending time with them.  She has a daughter, Nichele, who is 5 months younger than Noah.  They had fun playing together (for a while).  :-)   We went to Wonder World in San Marcos and had lots of fun in the cave.

2nd cousins… aren’t they too cute?

How cute!

You would never know how close in age they are just looking at their size.  But they both definitely have 4 year old attitudes.
