Halloween

Hello friends!

Our zoo in Ft. Worth had a "Boo in the Zoo" this past weekend and it was a lot of fun. It was a lot like a fall carnival with animals thrown in there.
Anderson looked just like he "worked" there! Haha!! He was a zoo keeper. Adam and I dressed up to match Anderson. Sorry, mom...he just wouldn't wear the hat. This was the only pic I could get with him in it. And as you can see...he doesn't like it, at all!In fact, it was quite the feat to get him to put his costume on tonight. I swear, I chased him all around the house and finally tackled him and he shrieked "I'm scared the whole time". Awesome.

We trick or treated with our friends and neighbors. We had a lot of fun(but we missed you Dada...he had to work:(
I think Anderson FINALLY got the hang of the whole trick or treating deal. Although, when I would say to him "what do you say"? He would tell the people "thank you" instead of trick or treat. And then he started feeling super comfortable with the whole idea of it, that when people would open their door...he would help himself to whatever was in there candy bowl.

The kiddos Bekah, Samantha, Anderson, Castin, Danna and Jaycie. They are all getting too big!Justin (Casey's husband) is too crazy!...but easy to spot in the dark!The witch around the corner and boy does she have a loud witchy laugh!Hilarious, Clara pulling Anderson...she's only 4 ft 9!The neighbor's down the street house. Their theme was Pirates of the Carribean! So cool!!Anderson and Castin enjoyed being pulled around too!Hope you had a Happy Halloween too!

Day 4 and 5 at Disney!

Hello friends!

I hate to leave things unfinished and I had not posted all of the Disney pictures yet. So, I'm posting our day at Hollywood Studios and the last day at Magic Kingdom. So fun! I'm already plotting and planning when our next trip will be to Disney World...so sad! What an addict! I guess it's better to be addicted to Disney than anything else! Ha!I wasn't sure if Anderson would even care one thing about meeting characters. Boy, was I wrong....he loved them!This cracked me up so much. We didn't know how much A loved Winnie the Pooh until we rode the ride at Magic Kingdom, but he is in LOVE! He kept asking Winnie the Pooh "what's in your door"? So, Winnie and Anderson knocked on the door and kept trying to open it. Anderson LOVED that so much!!We had breakfast at Chef Mickey's. I HIGHLY recommend this...it was SO much fun!! One day my dream is to stay at the Contemporary Resort...so nice!!Last year, I took this picture of A by this wooden Indian in Frontier Land and think he's grown quite a bit since then. I will take one every time we go(hopefully, every year:) and one day he will tower over this guy!
At Magic Kingdom, we took a little break from the crowds at Tom Sawyer's Island and explored the cave and let the kiddos play on the playground there. They loved it!
Had to add this picture in...look at Adam's face on Splash Mountain! Haha!!Did we have a magical time? The answer will always be YES!!!

State Fair of Texas and Gami

Hello friends!

Gami(Adam's mom) came to town! We have had a really good time. The first thing we did was try out the State Fair of Texas. Who doesn't love fried smores and fried pumpkin pie and corny dogs? They were delicious...especially the corny dogs...so greasy and good!! If you are from Dothan and are used to eating The Corn dog Man's corn dogs...they totally smoke his! :)While eating corny dogs, Anderson pointed to a lady and said "she has a baby in her tummy". I looked at her and said "bud, she does not...don't say things like that" But the lady came over and told us, actually she did! Phhhewwww...I felt better! She liked A so much, she gave us a free corndog to take home. Too bad we left it in the car :(

Anderson felt like we were at Disney World again and wanted to ride ALL of the rides. And of course, Anderson remembered the petting zoo from last year. So, we HAD to go see the animals and feed the animals!We then visited a little farm experience for kids. The kids had to feed the pretend animals corn, and plant crops and pick out the veggies that he had planted and then get on his tractor and plow the fields. And finally, he took his crops to market and the lady paid him for his hard work (with paper money) and then we went into the general store for him to spend his money on some animal cookies. Wal-mart was definitely was a sponsor...no saving that hard earned money for a rainy day...no sir...go spend it! Ha!! But, overall, I thought it was a really good learning experience for him. Adam and Anderson went in the mirrored fun house and down the curvy slide-fun,fun!!We had a wonderful time with you Gami...come back soon!
