Fall Festival

 Sebrena, Zoee, and I went to the Fall Festival for our city.  Mike had to work :(  We got there late so we didn't get to do a whole lot cause I haven't felt too good this weekend.  But it was fun getting out of the house and spending time with my girls.

Sebrena is Here and some Fall Fun

 We went to pick up Sebrena.  She has decided to come and live with us.  So our lives are about to change having a 4 year old and 19 year old in the house together.  We are excited to have her here though.  Ready for her to get going in college and get her young life started new.  We went and ate at Chuy's.  It was good.

 Zoee has been having an attitude the past two weeks.  I think she's going through a growth spurt and has been testing us.  It rained here a whole lot the past couple of days so we've been cooped up in the house.  I let Zoee go out and play for a while when it stopped.

 Zoee loves to dress up and Halloween is one of her favorite times of year to dress up in Halloween outfits.

Headed to the mall to play and have some family fun.

Notre Dame Game & Mike's Birthday Weekend

Mike wanted to go to the Notre Dame game for his birthday this year.  How awesome that they are playing in Texas at the AT&T Stadium so we could go.  Mom & Dad kept Zoee while Mike and I had a weekend away.  We had a really great time.  I got to see one of my favorite friends that I haven't seen in so long in Fort Worth.  And the game and the stadium were awesome.  We went to PF Chang's for dinner one night to celebrate Mike's birthday and had a romantic dinner.  

Art al la Carte

We attended this today and Zoee was so interested in everything that was going on.  

 The Girl Scouts table were making balloon animals.

 Zoee learned how to hula hoop on her arm.

 This is the MONSTER she made on the old timey print machine.

 They even had three clowns.

Brianna's 5th Birthday Party at Mr. Gatti's

Our next door neighbors have a grand daughter that Zoee loves to play with when she's staying with them. Her name is Brianna and she had her 5th birthday party at Mr. Gatti's.  I really like Mr. Gatti's parties and Zoee had a blast!  We ate the buffet, had cake, opened presents, they made balloon animals, then they took the kids into a separate room and entertained them.  Then we were given tokens to go and play in the game room.  She's five months younger than Zoee and about a foot shorter.  Zoee looks sooo tall here. HA 

2nd Ball Game of the Fall Season

 Zoee had her second ball game tonight.  They didn't look very good out there, I think because they were off two weeks because of the rain.  Not paying attention and the other team had two girls on 1st and 2nd base that were probably six years old was our downfall.  But it looked like they had fun.  I hope this next week will be a good one.  Zoee did however score for our team.  They brought her in and she got on the base both times she batted.  :)  She's really enjoying it!

Practice makes Perfect

Zoee has softball practice every Monday and Thursday nights and then they play games on Tuesday.  She is really into it and stops the ball a lot.  So proud of her.  She's going to be really good if she decides to stick with it.  We'll see what she wants to do.

Mike loves going to practice with her and help couching.  He comes home all smiles that he gets to be help his daughter be a part of a team.  

Lillian's 2nd Birthday Weekend

 Me and my sweet Mama.  She is definitely the strength in our family and I love her so much!

 Ahh..such cute cousins that love each other very much.

 Grammy & Papaw put up their trampoline.  The kids had a blast.

 Lillian's 2nd Princess Party has started!  Jillery made the quilt on the table.  She's crafty!

 NOM NOM NOM!

 Applying her lipstick with her high heels on. So cute!

 Pooped out after the party.

 Grammy & Papaw made a balance beam for them.

 Sweet Birthday Girl..Can't believe she is already two.

 Getting some sugars from her Uncle Mike.

 This is the blanket I made for her birthday present.  It will keep her warm this fall/winter.
