Pumpkin Extravaganza

Yesterday we went to the Pumpkin Extravaganza in Devine, Texas. They have a little farm with a train ride, hay ride, activities for kids, pumpkin painting, playground, goat feeding, etc. We went last year and had fun. The weather was much better this year. It was a gorgeous day. Bobbie came with us as well.
Here are some pictures and preview of the unedited pictures I will probably use for their Halloween pictures. Caroline wanted to be Dorothy so we got her costume. Sophie was going to be a pumpkin but the costume we had was too little. She is growing so fast. So, someone had given me the infant Dorothy costume a few years ago and so this year I have 2 Dorothys.

Visit With Cousins

So, my other sisters are way ahead of me, but a few weeks ago (In Septemer ), the girls and I took a trip to see my sisters that live in the Frisco/Mckinney area. We had a great time and my girls LOVE to play with their girls. Caroline can't wait until Christmas to see Angie's girls again.
We stayed with Lori Ann. Bethany and Sophie are really cute together. Sophie eventually will learn manners and not to crawl all over Bethany. I was a little stressed because Sophie decided that she could climb stairs. Caroline had fun playing with Angie's girls and special thanks for letting her have a sleepover. She had so much fun. One day we went to see Mama Judy and Mom. We really enjoyed seeing them even for a short time. Unfortunately, the babies were not in a very good mood that afternoon and we had to cut our visit short. Hopefully I will get to make that trip again in the next few months since the sisters are only a few hours away. Here are some pictures.

Somebody Has to Win

Well, a few months ago, Chuck entered the "Coke Rewards" contest about 190 times to compete for a $5000 Best Buy gift card. He was notified that he won but we really didn't believe it until he received the gift card in the mail a few weeks later....no strings attached. We were able to get quite a few things with the card. We got all new appliances in Stainless steel for the kitchen. Pictures will be below. We also got a new Router for wireless, a new laptop and a Sony Playstation 3. I absolutely LOVE the new refridgerator. It has French doors and the freezer on bottom. We never win anything so this was quite amazing. I am sorry this has taken so long to post. We have had this complete now for about 1 month.
