This Halloween the Yates' came over for trick or treating and we all had a great time. It was so much fun seeing them both get into saying "Trick or Treat" and understanding that they actually GOT something for it!! Haley was the cutest ladybug ever and Daniel was a fierce Spiderman!

Dewberry Farms
This fall we went to Dewberry Farms. Daniel had a lot of fun this year because he could do so much more than last year. He had a blast on the slide, seeing all the animals (he made us go to the barn 3 times), jumping on a big "trampoline", doing a hay ride, and playing on the huge playground. We look forward to going back next year!

Haley's 2nd birthday
Last month Haley turned the big 2!! We went to her birthday party and had a lot of fun--they had a big inflatablel water slide set up which was as much fun for the adults as it was for the kids. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate fully, but the kids still had a great time!
Kemah and Cousin Time
The first nice weekend this fall we headed to Kemah with Courtney's family to enjoy the boardwalk. Daniel couldn't ride too many rides, but he really enjoyed the train and the ferris wheel. Best of all he LOVED playing with his big cousin and watching him ride some rides with his daddy. We finished the evening with a great seafood dinner! It was fun!
Clown
At school Daniel was learning about the letter "C" so they decided to do face painting to make them all look like clowns. It was hilarious walking in to a room full of 2 year olds with clown face paint!

Tour de Texas
Well we just got home from our family vacation. It was a super busy vacation this year and I think we should've taken an extra week off to recover!
We started out in San Antonio with some friends from PA school. The first day was spent at Sea World and as you can see from the pictures it was a blast. It's August in San Antonio, so it was HOT, but the boys cooled off by going to the splash park after seeing all the shows. Daniel was asleep before we even left the Sea World parking lot.
After the PA folks left, the rest of the time we spent in San Antonio was at the Hyatt Hill Country's pool--they have an awesome lazy river, beach, and kiddie pool--and we definitely got our money's worth because we were there almost everyday. One evening we took a River Walk boat tour, but I didn't get any pictures--I was too busy trying to pay attention to the tour and keep an eye on Daniel. Oh well-maybe next time.
For the second leg of the trip we headed to Fort Worth to see Scott's parents ("Grandma and Grandpa" to Daniel). Thankfully the day we arrived a cool front blew through, so we decided to take advantage and head to the zoo. Daniel had fun looking at all the animals, and he even got to pet a sting ray!
For the final leg of the trip, we headed to Austin for Marshall's 2nd birthday party. I think at that point I was tired of taking pictures, so I didn't get any pictures of the party, but everyone had fun swimming and eating pizza! Daniel had so much fun that he passed out less than five minutes of being in the car on the way out of Austin. After we left Austin we finally made it home! Although we couldn't rest long because on Sunday we went over to my brother Jacob's house for a big family BBQ. Daniel and Colton wrestled most of the time, which is their new favorite thing to do together besides chase each other. It was great to see everyone and I found out I'm going to be an Aunt again--my brother and his wife are due April 19th! We are so happy for them.
I think next year we won't try to do so much in one trip!!

Random Silliness
Since it's been a while since I've updated, here's just a few silly pictures that make me laugh. Sorry they're all without pants, but they were taken when we were in potty training boot camp :)
