Happy Halloween!

Hello friends!

We had a great time trick or treating last night. We had a Halloween party at our neighbor's house and then all went out trick or treating with our sweet kiddos. Anderson was a bee. He was insistent that he wanted to be a bee for Halloween...ha! Adam and I dressed up too. Adam dressed like Magnum P.I. from the 80's t.v. show and I just dressed like I did as a kid in the 80's.

 Party festivities

The kiddos!!

 Our family!!

 The whole crazy group!

 Getting candy! Anderson told me " I don't like waiting in these lines to get candy...it's not fun"

 Magnum and the bee :)

 Clara, Anderson and me!

At the end of the night, Anderson told me "Momma, you hurt my feelings making me walk all over the place tonight. I feel like we have been in the Tiki Room at Disney World for a jillion years!!" Hahaha...he cracks me up!!

M i c....k e y.... M o u s e

Hello friends!

We embarked on our third Disney World trip with Anderson. We had the BEST time ever. Something about Disney makes me feel at home. :) Anderson was SO excited to get there!

 I always take A's picture by this wooden Indian in Frontierland...I'm a sentimentalist.

 Watching the electric light parade with Dada

 This was our view of Anderson's favorite ride. We rode it 4 times!!!!

 He feel asleep at the end of most nights..ha!

 Sydney, my cousin and her boyfriend came and joined us for a couple of days!

 Momma of the year award goes to me...cupcakes and cookies for breakfast!

 Loved the aquarium in Nemo!

 Norway in Epcot...hahaha!

 Eating breakfast at Chef Mickey's in the Contemporary Resort!

 Casey's splash pad in expanded Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom...so fun!

 We went to Animal Kingdom twice. Anderson cannot get enough animals!

 Dada and Anderson on Astro Orbiter

 We went to Mickey's Halloween Party at Magic Kingdom. It was a blast. This was the only costume Anderson would wear. Buzz Lightyear was too velcroy and Woody from Toy Story was too cowboy-y.Ha!!

I am already ready to go again!

Last days of summer

Hello friends-

Back in June when we were in Alabama for our vacation; Adam took Gus(our beagle) back to TX and Mom, Anderson and I went to Panama City for a couple of days. The funny thing is that a hurricane was brewing in the Gulf of Mexico, so there wasn't that many people there which was great for us!

We found LOTS of beautiful shells on the beach that had washed up due to the churning waters.

We took Anderson down to the pier and the wind was crazy!!

Of course we went to Thomas Doughnuts every morning.

We took Anderson to Shipwreck Island. It was just as fun as I remember it being as a kid! He loved the raft ride -White Knuckle River...ha!

My friend Shannon that I taught with at Childersburg High School and her little girl came Aubrey came and met us at Pier Park. The kids had a great time playing together!!!

  

I hope that we can do this every summer. We enjoyed spending time with you Nunna. Miss you!

One step closer...

We are one step closer to Harvard! ;) Anderson started Pre-K this morning. He went right in and started playing(yay for him)! As soon as we got out of the building, the tears started falling. Ohhhh....it's so hard to watch them grow up!

Days like these

Days like today I truly want them to last forever. Anderson and I didn't do anything special but go to his favorite place, the Ft. Worth Zoo. And maybe it's just that he is starting 2 days a week Pre-K :( but I just want to freeze this age and not let it move any further in time. Then, other days I am just bursting to see what he will become when he's older.

I love this boy! He's my love :)
