Scarecrow Festival

This past weekend, Grammy(Aaron's Mom) Addison and myself decided to go and check out the Chappell Hill Scarecrow Festival. It was a neat fall festival. They had over 300 vendors, a petting zoo, train rides, face painting, pumpkin decorating, and of course lots of food. The weather was cool which made it that much more enjoyable. I would love to go again next year.

When Aaron and I found out that Mickey and friends were coming to Reed Arena, we could not wait to take Addison. Her world revolves around Mickey Mouse Club House and I guess ours does too these days. Originally, we had seats farther away from the stage but received a call from the ticket office saying that needed to move us because of an interactive screen. All worked out for the better as seats on the second row from the stage had come available. I immediately jumped at the opportunity. Nevertheless Addison LOVED IT and well Aaron and I were pretty impressed as well.

Another Birthday Party

With moving this year, we decided to have a birthday party for Addison in Fredericksburg and then one for her here in College Station with Aaron's family. This time she participated in opening the gifts alittle more however still had one thing on her mind, playing.



Look at all those presents!


Hard to resist.

Fair Weekend/Addison's 2nd Birthday Party

We haven't been in our new house for even a week and Addison and I headed back to Fredericksburg so that she could see the fair parade on Friday. Aaron had to work so it was late Friday night when he joined us. Once again the hopping horses were her favorite but she had her eye on some of those crazy rides and I do mean you could not pay me to go on them. On Saturday, we went back to the fair grounds for Addison to take in alittle horse racing and dancing that evening, but by the time Gary P. Nunn came on stage she was tired and ready to go. On Sunday, we prepared for Addison's second birthday party out at Lady Bird Park or should I say I prepared for her party. I baked and iced about 60 cupcakes. Thank the Lord, that Pizza Hut did the rest. Like a normal two year old, she was more interested in sliding and swinging then opening her gifts. Nevertheless, she had fun and that's all that matters.

We've Moved!

Well, moving day has officially come and gone. The last two times Aaron and I moved, we did it ourselves and this time we hired movers and WOW did they make a difference! For the most part everything is in its place however we all know that there are about three boxes that never seem to get unpacked. As for Addison, she loves her new house. The house has tile floors throughout the majority of it and the louder she screams, the more it echoes, the bigger the grin on her face.

I'm Back!

I think my last post was back around the first of June and here it is already October! We had one eventful and busy summer with selling the house and moving and then having several health issues and trips to the emergency room to top it all off. Things are starting to slow down for us and the cool temperatures and rain over the past few weeks have been a blessing. It is starting to feel like fall and that means Halloween, Hunting, and then Christmas!
