Happy Halloween

 Happy Halloween 2017
 My mom sewed the Minnie Mouse costume for me to wear when I was Brynn's age.  Now, Brynn is also getting to wear it!

Tres Rios- Last Day

Today we woke up and did more of the same.  We sat by the fire, played Frisbee, horseshoes, football, rode bikes, and played on the playground.
 We lounged and played until it was time to bid Glen Rose farewell.
Until next time...

Tres Rios

We arrived at Tres Rios for a our annual Halloween camping weekend late Friday night.  It was chilly and dark.  We set up camp and then built a fire!
The next morning, the boys woke up ready to go check things out.  It was still in the 30's!
 They came back cold and decided to wait for it to warm up a little more.
 Thankfully the wind wasn't blowing too much, so it didn't feel quite as cold as the day before.  The grown-ups sat by the fire at our campsite while the kids played.  Once it warmed up a little more, we pulled ourselves away from the fire.
We went for our favorite walk down by the Brazos and around Squaw Creek.  Since the Brazos was mostly empty, we got to get down in the riverbed to explore.
 We were able to park our RV's buddy style this trip, which we really liked!  Our front doors faced each other and we had our tables, chairs, and fire pit in the middle.
We played/relaxed the day away until Trick-or-Treating time.
 Dressing up and trick-or-treating at camp has become something we really enjoy.
Blake stayed at camp to pass out candy while the daddies watched the fire and our dinner on the grill.
  After dinner, candy, and s'mores we all sat around thewarm campfire.  
It was the perfect ending to a very fun and full day!

This and That

Kaleb lost his first tooth!  Such an exciting day at for him!
 Barrett got a big haircut.
 The second tooth is already gone!
 Blake performed wonderfully at the Spooktacular Band Concert.  They played many fun tunes; including a Pirates of the Carribean instrumental.
 A great visit with an out-of-state friend.
 This is what I picked up from middle school.  And it wasn't crazy hair day.  I'm at a loss.

The Girls Mission Organization at church had a sleepover.  It was a fun night of games, food, and mission work.
Lights out at 2 a.m. and wake-up time at 7 a.m. (Mama was tired!)
We didn't get much sleep, but had a blast and survived the night!

Young Chef's Academy

Brynn loves to cook!  We were so excited when the Young Chef's Academy opened in our town.
 She had a blast making a Molten Lava Chocolate Cake!
It was a neat experience for her!

#8

We loved getting to go watch our favorite quarterback lead his team to victory at his senior homecoming game!




 After the game, the kids loved going down to the field to congratulate their biggest cousin on the win!

M is for...

M is for Mustache!

Thousand Trails - Last Day

We were super lazy today. We woke up, ate breakfast, and drank coffee... which lasted most of the morning. Later, all the kids, along with Papa and Robert went up to play putt-putt at the center. When they got back, we went for a short bike ride and played frisbee. Samantha, Bradley, Zoey, and Elleigh came out for a short visit. That pretty much sums up our last day... it was perfect!
 It's not what we have in life, but who we have in our life that matters.
Another fun RVing weekend for #campmcintire!
