I give thanks for thisThanksgiving

This Thanksgiving our family traveled to Oklahoma with my parents, Josh, and Gabe with his family. We stayed in a beautiful rented cabin in Broken Bow, Oklahoma. We had so much fun, great meals and now have some great memories too. Here are some of the photos from our holiday trip.

November Pleasures

Today I took pleasure in an annual event that I can really only do I because I live where it is so lovely and warm, plant my winter pansies. I love all the colors they come in, and their friendly faces. They smile at me and my passing neighbors all winter long. Aren't they wonderful?

Fall Fun

What adult doesn't remember doing this as a kid? We have all been there. We all had good laughs and it was truly the only day of the entire year that we enjoyed our neighbor's nasty cottonwood tree.

Air Show Adventure

Jeff and the boys all went to the airshow at Allience Airport at the end of last month. They all come back with smiles slapped on their faces, big appetites and great stories.

fall portraits

Today was the definition of fall weather in North Texas. 75 degrees, light breeze and some beautiful fall colors on the trees. We decided to head to our favorite botanical garden park to capture the day with some photos. Brett didn't know that really I wanted to capture photos of him before his big front teeth come in and he no longer looks little. We had a wonderful time and got some great photos to boot!
(my favorite was one that he chose last minute to pose on a bench for me, his hand has a Snoopy stamp on it. Gotta love it!)

Halloween

Brett has finally started really getting into the spirit of Halloween. Following in his father's footsteps I think. This year he dressed as Washington Irving's character of the Headless Horseman. We did up the gore factor which he just loved! Here are the before trick-or-treat photos.
