This is the one located between Amarillo and Canyon. We all went together and had so much fun watching the kids go from one game to the other.

They had a big dirt mound and after you climbed it there were slides that you went down to get to the bottom. After Shaleigh went up and discovered this the rest of the kids had to experience this as well. Thanks Lee and Kacey for taking the rest of the kids up.

They had a duck race station and Shaleigh and Kacey got to try this one. The only problem was that the duck kept getting stuck and they would have to pump the handle extra hard to make it go on down the track.

They had big bikes (tricycles) that Shaleigh got to pedal around on, they also had a large dome shaped that the kids could jump on. Of course they had the cow rides, and a wagon that drove you through the maze. Of course Shaleigh and Uncle Lee took off on foot to find their way through the maze.

Overall I think we all had a wonderful time and I enjoyed spending time with Lee, Kristie, Mom and all the kids.

Pumpkin Trails Lubbock

Putting the skeleton together

Lucas and Trinity ready to go

Shaleigh loved the bunny pumpkin

The object of the game to suck up shapes and place them in the cauldronI loved this display they put a lot of work in it.

Shaleigh and Cody
I loved this one

Last year we went to this and had a blast seeing how they carved their pumpkins. I think it is so neat to see so much variety by different clubs and organizations throughout Lubbock. The kids seem to have a good time. They had a few games at the front and I think Shaleigh's favorite one was the skeleton. She had to put it together and she did it in a heartbeat and they were surprised when we told them she was just 5 years old and almost named each bone while assembling the skeleton.

We had a good time and we also got to spend some time with Aunt Kristie and the kids.

NEW EXPERIENCES

OK everyone I'm ready to go

Come on y'all I'm really ready to go....

Meeting my new teacher Ms. Dianna

We decided to put Cody into our MDO program at church. He will attend it one day a week until he is 3 then he will go two days a week. He has the same teacher that Shaleigh had in her last year in class there. Dianna is a good person and will do well with Cody. Mom helps me out by taking him and I go and pick him up and then to get Shaleigh.

So far everyone has told me he is their easy baby and very laid back. We will have many more years of MDO and playschool. I look forward to getting to experience this with him like I did with Shaleigh. So until the next adventure.......

I never in a million years would have thought that after all this time I am absolutely bored if there is no home game on Friday nights. I love to go to them now and I am actually getting to where I know what is happening during the game. The three of us go to every home game. Shaleigh goes and watches the cheerleaders during the game and cheers right along side of them from the stands. It is so much fun to watch her trying to learn the cheers just by watching them. Cody sits in his stroller and just looks around at all the people and tries to see everything. There is not a single girl and most of the boys that don't stop by to visit with him. I sit there and visit with my friends whose kids are cheering right along side of Shaleigh.

Kristie and Lucas have come to one game so far and hope many more to go with those two precious little ones. They are getting a 21 month old little girl named Trinitity. I look forward to seeing her this weekend. We must try and find her a little cheerleader outfit so that she will be like Shaleigh.

So until next time......GO HORNETS!!!!!!

Cody and his Bunny

Hello Mr Bunny

How about a kissOkay honestly just wanted to suck on your ear

I haven't had a lot of time to post more of Cody so here it goes. He has become a little more mobile and scoots around the bed with his head down. He comes to a stop and raises his head and looks around and seems to say, "No this is not where I want to be". Lowers his head and scoots around again. He is so ready to crawl if he would just take his thumb out of his mouth he will be gone.

One night while laying in bed with him because he was in a playful mood I handed him his bunny and he automatically started chewing on it. I believe that is a sure sign of him teething and if that isn't enough of one him drooling shows it also.
