Fun Filled Day

Yesterday, Conn and I went with Lily, on her kindergarten field trip to the Oil Ranch. It was a lot of fun and the weather was beautiful. It is crazy to think that I went there when I was in kindergarten...25 years ago. I can't believe the place is still open. WOW! She had a blast, and it was so fun to see her interact with all her classmates.

Our first field trip, together.

We hung out with a sweet classmate, Briana, all day.

We rode some horses.

We took silly pictures.
We went to the petting zoo.
We milked a cow.
While they were doing this, the poor cow just kept looking at me. I just had to tell her, "Baby, I know exactly what you are feeling!" HA!!
We fed some cows that had very long tongues and snotty noses.
We sat on some old tractors.
We played on the playground.
We wished our good buddy, Gavin, a Happy 6th Birthday!!! What a fantastic way to spend a BIG day!!!
We had fun taking pictures of each other.
We ate yummy snow cones.
We LOVED having daddy there to spend the day with us!

We thanked the Lord, for wonderful days like this. These are the special times and we are so truly blessed!!

We Should Have Stayed In Cabo!

I LOVE this! I copied it from my moms blog. Thanks, Mammy, for the laughs!

All last week we stayed at Ashley and Conn's house with their 3 little ones while Mom & Dad "frolicked" in Cabo San Lucas! It would have been a fairly easy "gig" if we had not decided to "re-do" their living room!! Yeah - we're kinda crazy like that! But the kids were great! All our grand babies are great when we keep them cause we give them whatever they want!! Isn't that what grandparents are supposed to do??!!! So while the cat's were away - the mice did play...just a little!!

We took our "Super Heroes" to a birthday costume party!! They were ready to leap tall buildings to save the damsel in distress!!

but.........we NEVER let them eat anything sugary or unhealthy!!!!

We watched them very carefully and did NOT let them climb on Pappy's ladder while watching TV!!

We NEVER let them eat in the Living Room!!!

We would NEVER give Maggie her old "passie" to play with!! And we would NEVER let Cash push his big sister all around the house bumping into the furniture!!

And we would NEVER let these babies open the windows and climb in and out of the house!!!!

No - NEVER!!

And we would NEVER let this little boy go out on the porch and play on this trampoline without constant supervision!!

Nor would we EVER let the kids pull their mama and daddy's comforter off their bed and lay on it while watching TV!!

And we would NEVER let them eat one of those "big straws full of pure sugar"!!!!

You know we just would never let those kids do anything that their parents would not let them do - no NEVER!!! Shhhhh! Don't tell - we may NEVER get to do it again!!

Halloween Fun

Both of the girls, had book character parades at their schools, on the exact same day. Maggie went as Spider Girl, which was also her Halloween costume. But, not Lily. No, ma'am!! She wanted a whole other costume for her parade. HA! So, she decided on Little Red Riding Hood.

Getting ready to leave for Lily's parade...

Look! It's George and Barbara! :)

Then, we raced off to Spider Girls parade...

Batman, wanted to join in on the fun!

We had to change things up a bit this year for Halloween. Conn had to be at church services, and I had a wedding to go to. So, we didn't do any trick or treating. We don't really talk that much about it in our house, so it didn't even phase them . The girls were going to go with Conn to the Fall Festival at church, and that was fine by them. But...of course there was one stop we did have to make at Mrs. Janet's house. This is a must every Halloween!

Dressed and ready to go...

Trick or Treat

I LOVE this picture! Not only because it is one of our all time favorite persons with her sweet babies, but also because Maggie and Cash WILL NOT take their eyes off of, Dudley, the dog! They are terrified of that dog. HAHA!!

Conn took the camera with him to the Fall Festival and took some pictures for me. Such a good husband. :)

Super Hero's McWhorter's meeting up with Super Hero's O'Quinn's

Playing some games

Always a fun time with Daddy!

Way to go, babe! Fun pic! :)

While Conn and the girls were at the Fall Festival, Cash and I, went to my cousins wedding.

Cash and my oldest brother, Brandon

There were no high chairs at the reception, so Pappy used his tie to hold Cash in. HA!

Sweetness!


Hanging out with Shar-Shar and Pappy


That's enough pictures, Mammy!



Hope you all had a Happy Halloween!
