A Hunting We Will Go!

Last week we headed out to my grandparents tree farm up in East Texas for 4 days of hunting and outdoor fun! Cameron, my dad and brother were the hunters while me, the boys and my grandparents hung out and had some campfire fun.
They loved the swing in GG's and Big Grandpa's backyard


Riding the 4 wheelers was a big hit! They rode 3 different times with 3 different drivers! Here is Asher with his Uncle Elliot

The campfire! This was the part these boys were waiting for since we left our house. They loved roasting anything they could get their hands on!

Love these 2 pictures. Man this guy is cute :)
I love this picture because it shows a little of how beautiful my grandparent's land it. They have 100 acres with a pond and tons of gorgeous pine trees! I have been going out here since I was a baby and bringing my kids now is such a neat feeling. I love the they are now running down the same trails I was once did, letting their imaginations run wild. The whole time we were out they you couldn't take their little smiles off their faces. They were happy, content...I still get that feeling when we are out there. It's just so peaceful :)

Trick or Treating and the Circus!

So I know these are late but better late then never right? :)

We had a great year trick or treating! The boys are so big Cam and I just stood at the sidewalk and they ran up to every house by themselves. It was really fun and brought back so many wonderful memories of my own childhood and racing my sister to every house!

My parents and their grandkids


Patiently waiting...

Or very spooky pumpkin! Cameron let the boys draw the eyes and mouth and then he carved it!


A few weeks ago we took the boys to the Shriner Circus that came through town. This was Asher's 1st time and Aiden's 3rd. They loved every second of it!

The circus is never complete without some yummy treats...

good company...

And a horseback ride :)



Well we are off for a long weekend at my grandparents house! Be back next week with lots of pictures from out trip!

Sweetberry Farms Pumpkin Patch

 Yesterday we headed west to Sweetberry Farms, our favorite pumpkin patch! Cameron took half the day off and suprised Aiden by picking him up from school! After that we were off!

 First thing we did when we got there was buy strawberry popscicles. They were amazing! After that we headed over to paint a pumpkin. The boys got to pick out their own pumpkin out of this lovely boat ;)





After the pumpkins we were off to feed the goats! Asher has always been terrified of these goats but this year he was so brave and loved it!


Even though Ash loved the goats this was his favorite part...sticking his head in these cute cutouts!

Of course we had to take some pics with the pumpkins.


Next up the kid maze! The boys have always loved this. This year they really got into it and ran around and made it to the end for the first time! Yay!


After that we headed through the tunnel to the barrel train and flower picking.




Oh how things change in a year. Last year there is no way either boys would have done this. This year...they are pros!





For only $2 you can pick and take home all the flowers you can fit in a cup! We got a gorgeous bouquet that now gracess our breakfast table.

On our way out the boys wanted to stop and try out this tractor.


We had a fabulous day and was so lucky that the weather was gorgeous! Clear skies and in the 70's...can't ask for a better fall day in central Texas :)

Happy Healthy Halloween!

This evening we went to a local medical plaza that was hosting a "Happy Healthy Halloween" little festival. Some of the doctors offices stayed open and passed out fun treats for the kids. The local library was also there and the boys made a really cute pumpkin craft and sat down for a story time. The whole event was loads of fun! We met our good friends The Smiley's for some Halloween fun!








Day 4 of Halloween fun week was a success! I am so super excited for tomorrow because Cameron is taking off work early and we are headed out to our favorite pumpkin patch Sweetberry Farms for some last minute pumpkin fun!
