Camping Again!!!

This past weekend we went camping with our friends The Price's. We went to Lake Whitney State Park. It was a little chilly (37 degrees), but we survived! The kids had a blast! We ate so many s'mores, that I may be turning into a marshmallow! There were some beautiful trails, we walked some, the boys hiked and rode their bikes. It was definitely a great weekend with good friends!

Glen Rose

We decided to go camping with our friends the Reuman's (and yes we went camping with them around this same time last year). Dinosaur Valley State Park has a Haunted Hike every year, and we thought it would be really neat to take the kids and campout. We stayed in some nearby cabins since the tent sites at Dinosaur Valley were already full. We all had fun with the exception of a few "surprises" at the cabin! LOL! Downtown Glen Rose had a Safe Treat around the square that afternoon, so the kids all got to dress up and gets lots of candy!

It was a very interesting evening 2 families trying to sleep in a one room cabin, but all in all it was alot of fun! On Sunday, we went to Big Rocks Park which is exactly that, a park with some really big rocks! The kids had a blast "rock climbing"! I have to say, I have been to Glen Rose several times, and I didn't know that Big Rocks even existed-it was really neat!

Enjoy the pics-and be warned, I will be updating more tomorrow, so be prepared for picture overload!








Pumpkin Guts

We love Halloween over here! Pumpkin patches, farms, decorating, etc...we especially love carving some pumpkins! Carson picked out a pumpkin carving kit with a book of faces, and the boys have never been happier! They were able to carve their pumpkins all by themselves (almost)! Enjoy the pics below...they don't really do justice to the amount of fun and laughter that went into these, but hey-you can use your imagination!

Old Window Redo

So, I found this old window in Canton 4 years ago, and it has been sitting in my garage ever since! (Just waiting for the perfect place to use it!) Well, we recently re-decorated my room at the salon, and what do ya know, but this window finally had a place! I sanded it and cleaned it up (not to much-I didn't want to get rid of the several layers of cracking paint that really added character. I then painted it black and sanded it again. I stapled the fabric to the back and Voila!

Hall's Pumpkin Farm 2010

Going to Hall's Pumpkin Farm has always been our family tradition. We love it! It is a smaller pumpkin patch, but is is just so quaint and cozy I think. They have an amazing corn maze! We have so much fun in there, I truly think I laughed through the entire thing!













Pumpkin Patch 2010

So my friend Jennifer and I try to take our kids to the Flower Mound Pumpkin Patch every year during a weekday. Last year we never made it together because of all the mud and what not. We made it this year! As usual the kids had a great time. Although I think it may be getting harder on us. Not sure why though! LOL! Enjoy the pics-there are a bunch!
