A Day at the Dallas Zoo

Wednesday, we went to the zoo with our friends, since it was a lovely day!  Here's Anna and the elephants.

 Fender, Luke & Anna feeding the giraffe.

 Parker, Fender, Anna & Luke watching the giraffes.

Luke had SO MUCH fun splashing through the stream in the children's area!!  Both kids had to ride home almost naked cause we had no extra clothes, but it was worth it for them!



Scarlett's Princess Party

Anna had fun at her friend Scarlett's princess party!!

Soccer, Etc.

Anna had a good game last Saturday.  Luke really wanted to play.  This was during the pactice before the game...

 Cheering for her team!

 Go Anna, Go!

Pep talk!

This is just a cute one of Luke at the park.

And here's Luke modeling the teeny tie I used for pictures on my nephew. :)

Baby Jeremiah!!

Here are a few pictures I took of my sweet nephew, Jeremiah!  He was born 10-10-11 and was about 5 days old in these.

Texas State Fair 2011!

We made our annual trip to the Texas State Fair.  Here's a pic with Big Tex!

We had fun at the petting zoo.  Luke would much rather look than touch, but he liked watching the animals!

Corny Dog!

Here's one of our favorites... the Little Hands on the Farm.  It's free and you even earn a treat at the end.

Here we are at the farm 2009...

And here's a 2010 and 2011 comparison.

Here's Luke's dollar he earned for working at the farm. 

Anna chose the planes as one of her rides.

Luke got to ride the motorcycles.

Anna wanted to ride the ferris wheel.  She loved it even though her cheese face looks a little scared.

Luke got to ride the four wheelers.

Anna chose the elephants as her last ride before we headed home.  We had a fun day!

Big Orange Pumpkin Farm

It's October, so we thought it was time for the pumpkin patch!  Our playgroup went today!

Luke really liked looking at the animals, but didn't want to get toooo close!

This was the best picture I got of the two of them together!!

This one amuses me... cause it seems to say... Ok... make sure you ignore Mommy!

Hayride time with friends!

Pumpkin Selection!

Whoa... this pumpkin is heavier than it looks!

This one is more my size...

Pumpkin Patch Outtakes!

Look, Ma!  It's a goat!

My photographer friend, who just happened to be next to me on the hayride, was nice enough to snap this of the three of us.  Check out her website - Gingersnap Photographs

 

It was a fun day at the Big Orange Pumpkin Farm!
