pumpkins & a goodbye

our playgroup from church went to the

arboretum on friday

it was a BEAUTIFUL day!

thank goodness (the day before the high was 99!)

i tried to get a pic of all three of my kids

apparently

they decided that wasn't a good idea

i know

i am the mom

but when it has to do with pumpkins and pictures -

i decided my best bet was to come again with some back up help :)

oh - and my dad asked from my last post,

and i have been meaning to say -

duncan will only wear his ATM shirt and this texas ranger shirt

he has started to become opinionated on his wardrobe - nice

so it is not because i am such the aggie fan that i put him in it every day-

he just insists on it

and i have decided - it doesn't matter that much if he wears the same

shirts most days :)

sweet sparrow and eli

were better for their mom in taking pictures

love the hand on the hip in this picture

cuttie pie!

i attempted a pic and just these two -

and just these two

but obviously it didn't work ;)

i even thought it might be better if i was holding the youngest two -

no such luck

this little guy is wearing me out!

he is so cute but so full of energy

i guess if we can't get the kids to take a good picture,

at least some of the mom's can :)

they are so cute together

riding in the cinderella's carriage

magen, sara, and wilson came at the end to say good-bye to everyone

they were leaving for san antonio that afternoon

i could tell jayden knew something was going on,

because he was real clingy to sara which he normally is not

they were so cute playing "ring around the rosy"

saying goodbye to our sweet, precious friend

they love eachother

magen and i were both trying not to totally break down

at this moment

love them

campbell had had enough and this was how we found her after our goodbyes!

happy monday
