Happy 50th Anniversary!

My parents celebrated their 50th Anniversary this month!  Wow!  That's so awesome!  I love my parents so much and am so thankful for the example they set for me of what a marriage should be. 

My brother and sisters and families all went to visit them the weekend after their anniversary and had a little party for them.

The Whole Family

The Original 5 with Papaw and Memaw:
Danny, Jana, Papaw, Memae, Mindy, Allison, Amy

The McCoys and Wiebes with Papaw and Memaw

The Wilks with Papaw and Memaw

The Browns with Papaw and Memaw

The Ates with Papaw and Memaw

The Knapps with Papaw and Memaw

All 9 Grandchildren with Memaw and Papaw
  
The Flamingo Fairy came and decorated their yard with all those red hearts.

Danny cooked yummy gumbo and then we had cake.  We made sure to get pictures of Mama and Daddy cutting the cake and feeding it to each other like they did 50 years ago at their wedding.  So sweet!

It was all a surprise and they were so happy.  That was a weekend I'll always remember.

Fall School Pictures

They turned out so cute!

Happy Halloween




I'm disappointed I can't get my picture of Andy with Katie on here, but it keeps uploading sideways.  :(

After trick or treating Katie helped hand out candy at our house.  The video is dark so you can't see much, but I had to put it on here.  I love how she says "Happy Halloween" then gives the trick or treaters candy.

Celina Pumpkin Patch



Andy wasn't able to make it to the Flower Mound Pumpkin Patch with us so we went to the Celina Pumpkin Patch the day before Halloween.  It was a perfect day for it too.  Nice and cool and not crowded at all!

 Just a little extra pic of the cute outfit Mimi made/got me.

Hooray! Katie's friend, Lillie turned 2! We had fun at her "Barnyard Bash"!

She got to use her new ladybug umbrella.

The kids got to feed goats, pigs, chickens, bunnies, and pet ponies.

Safety Town Trick or Treating

The weekend before Halloween we went trick or treating at Safety Town.  I didn't get many pictures because while waiting in the hour+ line to get in, it downpoured on us a couple of times.  We had fun anyway "practicing" trick or treating at Safety Town. 

Costume #1: She LOVED the bunny costume, but after putting it on with her tennis shoes, it was just a tiny bit too small.  Cute, but I got a new one that week before Halloween.
 Her friend, Jordyn.  Isn't she a cute little 50s girl?
