I haven't been able to post many pictures lately because everything has been so crazy, but I think this post will finally get us all caught up! These first pictures are from Oma's birthday when we took the girls to the Lufkin Zoo at the beginning of October. We let Jayda skip school so that she could come with us on our adventure, she was so excited! We had lots of fun with Oma and Oupa checking out all the animals at the zoo, and having a picnic lunch by the giraffes! The first cold front of the year had just come in that morning so the weather was absolutely gorgeous! We couldn't have asked for a better day to visit the zoo!
The girls posing in front of the pretty peacocks.
Avery checking out the lion on top of the wall.
It's a rhino at the zoo!
Sydney reluctantly got in the picture too.
Jayda and Sydney standing in front of the giraffe! This is
where we had our picnic lunch and it was perfect!
Pretty girl wanted me to take one more picture of her.
Even little bit wanted her picture taken by the rhino!
Sydney riding the lion!
"ROAR!"
Sweet girls with Oma and Oupa!
Avery's new "cheese" face! It cracks me up how she scrunches up her little nose all the time!
Avery always points at me when I'm taking her picture and tell her to "look at Mommy". It's so cute.
Sissys at the zoo! We had such a fun day with Oma and Oupa!
Little Miss Avery Mae LOVES to play on the kiddie roller coaster.
She will do this all by herself for hours! Getting all set to go!
And she's off, woo-hoo!
"Hey Mommy, that was so fun!" :)
Big girl even wanted to stand up on her little roller coaster car-car.
Just checking everything out from her car. Sweet girl.
Yay for Avery!
She even likes to sing while standing on her car.
And clap too!
Harley decided to come and join her in the grass.
"Hi Mommy."
A few weeks ago we had Ty for a long weekend and decided to take him, Avery and Sydney on a trip to 7 Acre Wood in Conroe. I was thinking about having Avery's birthday party there, so I wanted to see what it was like before I booked the party. Sydney had a blast and she was pretty much the perfect age for this type of place. Avery and Ty enjoyed the playground, but didn't want to ride the ponies or the train. They all had fun feeding the animals though and we had a fun morning!
Sydney liked riding the pony.
Pretty little cowgirl.
Avery had fun in the playhouse.
And she loved swinging!
So did Ty! He was so cute!
He even smiled for me while on the playground. He had lots of fun!
Miss Avery stopped to take a quick picture for me, but didn't want to look at the camera.
Sweet cousins going down the slide together!
Sydney in the playhouse. I love this picture of her!
Sydney was the only one big enough to sit still while I took her picture in the pumpkin patch!
Sydney posing with the donkey. She loved petting all the animals in the petting zoo.
She even got to pet a deer, so neat!
They loved feeding the animals!
Look, it's a little billy goat!
Ty man in the pumpkin patch.
Avery sat still for a whole 1 second for me to get her picture with the pumpkins.
Farmer Sydney.
And little farmer Avery.
Sydney was the only one that wanted to go on the train ride.
Avery wanted no part of it!
Last weekend was the Hornet Homecoming here in Huntsville. Homecoming is a big deal every year here and the day before the game there is a big Homecoming parade that goes through the middle of town. There are tons of floats filled with students from different schools, the football players and cheerleaders, the band, school administrators and school board members, different clubs from the high school and much more. Jayda rode on her school float this year and loved it! She was so excited to see everyone and throw candy out!
Miss Avery waiting for the parade to start.
Sitting with sissy.
Avery would hardly sit still while we were waiting for the parade to start, so I decided to take some pictures of her running around. She loved playing with this pole.
"Cheeeeeese Mommy!"
Mommy and Avery.
Mommy and my two little ones!
Sitting curbside once the parade finally started. She was so ready to get some candy!
The football players coming by on their float.
Buzzy, the Hornets mascot!
Jayda riding on the Scott Johnson Elementary float. Yay!

After we got home from the parade Avery had to show every her scary lion roar!
Sydney had made the lion mask at school that day. :)
All ready for Homecoming day!
Daddy and his pretty little dates to Homecoming!
Sweet Paschal girls!
Jayda was very excited about her pretty mum that Mommy and Daddy got for her.
Kisses for Jayda!

Miss sassy Sydney!
"Hey Mom, take one like this." :)
Daddy and Sydney.
Lets GO Hornets!!!
On Sunday the girls got all dressed up in their Halloween costumes for trunk or treat at our church.
Sydney in front of one of our sharegroup's trunks.
Playing the bean bag toss, go Sydney!
The girls had Daddy put in "jail" at the trunk or treat...it only costs $1 to put someone in jail and they had brought their money!
Locking him up. Soon after I took this picture, the girls put me in jail too!
We were both locked up at the same time!
Pretty little witch on a pony!
And Supergirl!
Going out on the hayride.
Little Sam wanted to go in jail too, so they let him on in as well!
