First Movie Date

A few weekends ago we had some friends over to eat BBQ and watch our Rangers play in the ALCS.  I should preface this with the fact that we don't have too many friends with small kids that we see often, so I was excited when I found out Randy's friend and his wife were bringing their little girl.  We'll call her P.


Of course all of the adults were hanging out on the patio enjoying a few adult beverages and watching the game, so I decided to put Lion King on for Jack and P in the living room.  Us mamas were hoping it would keep them entertained and contained for a while! 


I popped popcorn and got them apple juice - it was like a real little movie date!  But, that little set up did not last long! HA! They went back and forth between the playroom, the movie and outside. A 2 and 3 year old's attention span is not very long!! At one point they came out of the playroom holding hands. I wish I would have gotten a picture of that. Too cute!

We can't wait for P and her parents to come over and play again! 
We had so much fun!

Happy Fall, Yall!

An impromptu trip to my parent's this past weekend led us on an unexpected trip to a pumpkin patch! Ok, maybe it was just a small Fall display in front of a small town courthouse, but it was still fun to take pictures.



I think this is such a cute picture. Jack really liked Mr. Scarecrow! Notice how he's trying to hold his hand - sweet boy!



Had I known we were going to stop to take pictures with pumpkins and scarecrows on our way to the grocery store, I certainly would have dressed Jack for the occasion! Oh well, maybe we'll make it back sometime before Thanksgiving and he can wear his new turkey shirt.



This was his Thanksgiving shirt last year. I can't believe how much he's grown in just a year! Look at that chubby little face! :)


Such a little Turkey! I was scared Jack was going to knock down the turkey or break him in some way! He ran into him and bounced off like he was in a bouncy house before he finally plopped down in front!



Happy Fall, Yall! 
A cold front is coming in tonight, so highs will be in the upper 50s/low 60s for the next few days!  I've got my chili fixin's all ready to go!  YUMMY!
