Alex and his grill

Alex made us some awesome ribs last week using Woody's marinade. Yummy!

Playground Mania

Now that the weather is more bearable (highs in the 80s these days) we have been heading out to all the local parks and playgrounds.







Ruby loves to climb. On the one hand I am glad that she is independent and happy to try new things, but it also makes me very nervous! There are so many places she could fall or jump from high heights!

Anyways, I usually end up crawling behind her and going down the slide with her. Here are a few pics from some parks we enjoyed in the last week or so.

Flowermound pumpkin patch

We met our mom's group at another local pumpkin patch last week.

The Flowermound pumpkin patch was nice (with the exception of the bees everywhere!)

Ruby got to visit with her buddies, Maddie and Kaylee.






A bazillion pumpkins!








Mama and Ruby.

Pumpkin Express

Ruby and I met some friends at a pumpkin patch in Argyle, Tx. We rode this neat mini-train to get there.



They had a bazillion pumpkins and fun things for the kids to play in. Here we are in the cute little dollhouse.




Ruby loved running free through the pumpkins.







I love this time of year!

Pictures of Ruby talking

Since the weather is nicer, we've been spending more time outside. We got Ruby a little slide for outside too (since she loves the inside one so much!). She is so proud of herself when she gets to the top.






She starting talking very expressively, so I snapped a few pictures of her.

October Canton

Nicole and I went to Canton for the day last weekend. We walked and walked! It was Nicole's first trip to Canton and she loved it. So glad to introduce a good friend to one of my favorite places! We had perfect weather and found a few fun things.

Hudson's birthday party

Last weekend Ruby, Alex and I went to Hudson's first birthday party.








Jessica went with a monkey theme and all the decorations were amazing. Aren't the vines neat?!?

Here's Hudson enjoying his cake while the little girls watch.








Ruby loved playing.





Jessica crocheted all the babies monkey hats as their party favors. So cute!



Thanks for inviting us Marshalls!
