Homecoming

Tyler had his first homecoming dance. There were a lot of preparations, can't imagine having a girl! Tyler went with his girlfriend Carson, and then they brought two of their friends as well. Before the dance they went out for dinner, and then they went to an after party after the dance. I think it was an exhausting weekend for everyone. And then Sunday was Halloween.


This is the mum I made. Apparently there are all kind sof new rules that I didn't know until after I made it. I think it worked out though.

Mason's Halloween Party

Mason got to have a Halloween Party at his school. All of the kids got to dress up in their costumes and then they got to eat party food. Everyone had a great time.

His class has also been on two field trips recently. One they went to Meyer Park, and we sent a loaf of bread for the kids to feed the ducks. I'm guessing they had some very full ducks that day. The other field trip they went to CiCi's pizza. Each child got to make their own pizza. They got to help put it in the oven, and they got to go in the walk in refrigerator. Those were both highlights of Mason's trip. And when the pizzas were done they got to eat them, and take home their left overs!

Field trip to the Pumpkin Patch

Mason's class went to the pumpkin patch today, and I got to go along. The kids had lots of fun on the hay ride and train ride and playing on the playground. It was such beatiful weather for a day outside. Its just 20 degrees cooler in Canada right now! They must be having an unseasonably warm day.

Mason's First Field Trip

Mason's class took their first field trip to Minute Maid Park today, and I went along. The tour was pretty neat and included the field, bull pens, media box, suite, and Astros dugout. We actually missed the first half of the tour that included the upper deck. They have the tour daily, and anyone can go. I totally recommend it. There was a lot of information that I forgot.

And the pictures of the turtle where from last week when I saw a huge turtle in our backyard. It was raining and hot, so the camera kept fogging up as I tried to take the picture.

UT vs Rice

The boys all headed out to a football game this weekend. I stayed home with the younger kids, since I don't like football so much. Frank took the pics with his phone.

SpongeBob

My mom took the kids to see SpongeBob at Chick fil a last week while I was at a meeting. Mason found that very exciting.

Football and First day of School

Well, its taken me a while to get pictures posted again. With nearly a full week of school down things have been crazy around here. These pictures are from "Meet the Panthers," the first football pep rally. Then the first scrimmage game Tyler played in. Plus a couple of pictures from Mason's first day of school in his school uniform. And he will be the first to tell you how handsome he looks in his uniform. And finally we have pictures from Tyler's first real football game tonight. In both games he played for two plays. The first game he was a receiver and tonight he played on the kick-off team. He is number 88 and I think he will keep that number. We all got our panther paraphernalia tonight as well. The back of Mason's shirt says "Caution I bite!" Tyler's team won their first game.
