Preschool Days

Brooks, Reese and Sloane love their preschool! Each day they come home excited to tell me about all of the new things they are learning. Recently, there was a Halloween party at their school. All of the children were asked to where their costumes.

Here is the class singing songs...
Circle time!

Big girl beds

After sleeping on mattresses on the floor for several months, we finally bought new beds for Reese and Sloane. My little girls are growing up so fast!

Dallas Arboretum Pumpkins

We returned to The Dallas Arboretum to take some photos with Halloween costumes. Brooks, Reese and Sloane love pumpkins and were excited to pose with these large pumpkins.

A quick change and into Tinker Bell, Buzz Lightyear and Belle.

Texas Rangers are going to the World Series!

What an exciting time in baseball for Texas Rangers fans!

The night of game 4, we took Brooks, Reese and Sloane out to eat. The entire family was sporting our Texas Rangers gear and sure it enough...it paid off!

Earlier this Spring, we took the Trio to their first Ranger Game. I love this picture of the 3 of them looking down onto the field.

It will be fun to look back on this event when they are older and say "when you were 3 years old, The Texas Rangers played in their first World Series'!

Go Rangers!

Go TCU!

Brooks has been playing soccer this Fall. He has a game every Saturday so we dress up Brooks, Reese and Sloane in TCU clothing in support of my college team: the TCU Horned Frogs.

Here are Reese, Brooks and Sloane:

Rides!

Brooks hated this ride. He was crying so I had to ask the operator to stop the ride and take him off.
The girls LOVED this ride!

Bill Bates Pumpkin Farm

This year we took Brooks, Reese and Sloane to a new pumpkin patch: The Bill Bates Pumpkin Farm.

The weather was amazing and there were many fun things to do....

We posed for several photos....Reese, Sloane and Brooks.
Sloane could not stop giggling while feeding this longhorn.
