Happy Halloween

Baseball may have ended for the season but support for the Yankees is still going strong at our house. Bryce had an all dressed up and nowhere to go kind of Halloween. I put his costume on in the afternoon and we waited for our trick or treaters. No one came by before he went to bed. It's 8pm now and we've only had one group come by. So disappointing!

Pumpkin Carving Party

We had friends over on Sunday to carve pumpkins. I had no idea that we had such talented friends. The pumpkins were so good!

Visit from Nana and Grandpa Bob

Russell's mom and stepdad came to visit this week. We went out to dinner on Friday night. Can you tell that Bryce enjoyed his meal?

The big event (of which we have no pictures of) was Bob attending his first UT football game. He was nice enough to take Russell and my parents. From what I heard, he loved the expereince!

Pumkin Picking

We met some friends today to take pictures in a pumpkin patch. You feel less silly taking pictures when you have a bunch of friends with you. We all took a million pictures, all with the hope that your own child would smile at least once into your camera. It was pretty entertaining...

Visit with Mimi and Papa

My grandparents were at their lake house last week so Bryce and I went to visit. Bryce loved lunch, lasagne is always a good choice. Then he and Papa enjoyed some animal crackers for dessert. I barely got him buckled into the car seat to head home when he conked out. It's exhausting entertaining great grandparents are !

Farmers Market

We went to the farmers market by our house this morning. It's held every week but this week's focus was herbs. I bought a few plants for the garden and we sampled a lot of good food. Bryce like always ate everything. Why no picture of this fun event? I forgot to take pictures. You'll have to make do with this one in the backyard. The weather is a little more pleasant these days so we're playing a lot back there.

San Antonio Zoo

While Russell and my dad played in a golf tournament, my mother and I took Bryce to the zoo. This was something that I loved doing when I was little and was excited to take Bryce. He had such a good time. Monkeys were the best but petting the goats came in a close second.

After you pet the goats...you need to wash your hands. Luckily...there was a Bryce sized sink available. He loved to wash his hands, but didn't think the goats were much dirtier than Josie.

After we wandered around we had a picnic by the train. He loved watching the train pull in and out of the station. We ran out of time to ride it this trip so we'll be back soon.

We went to cheer on our golfers on Sunday. Bryce brought snacks to keep him busy since watching golf isn't the most exciting thing. We showed up to watch holes 9 & 10 and helped Dad pick out a nice pair of shoes that he won for making the longest putt on hole 17.
