Old MacDonald had a farm...E-I-E-I-O

Yes we are still alive. Not that any of you were worried, or missed my posting! I took a little blogging break, but we are back with lots of pictures. Monday we went to Old MacDonald's farm. It is about 10 min. from our house (driving) and I can't believe we've lived here almost 2 years and have never been. It was so fun. The kids had a blast. Here are some photos:

I absolutely love this photo....Luke, Kassidy, and Carson looking at the animals.

Pony ride #1

Pony Ride #2

Pony Ride # 3
This cow was HUGE!
We also rode the train 3 times.
Huge sand pile to play in.

This is when a bug flew in Carson's shirt. It was pretty funny. We got it out, don't worry!

This place is a lot bigger than I thought it was from the road.

"Hey don't forget about me!"

Hailey's first pony ride!

Typing

Yep...still got it. I only had one typo by the way!

Shopping

I know, I know...three posts in one day...this will be the last one...I promise! (for today anyways!) I picked up a few things at Target today and wanted to show Bridger...this is the easiest way.

Hailey's sandals (these are really for the wedding reception next month...but they are so cute she may start wearing them now!) Target - $9.99

Hailey's swimsuit...there were SO MANY cute ones, but this is the one I decided on. Target - $9.99

Carson's sunglasses...these ROCK...they have a velcro band on them so they won't fall off his head. Target - $4.99 ( I know he looks a little silly because they are over his ears...he said they are more comfortable this way then wearing them up a little higher on his head.) (I think these are really for BABIES...but they will work for C man!)

Yes I did look other places than just Target. Walmart did NOT have a good selection unless I wanted a Dora swimsuit or a two-piece....and Target was still a good price, better than the other places I checked.

Random Post

So today is day # 2 we are all alone. Bridger left for a work training on Sunday and we are holding down the fort while he is gone. Today we went to the Wendy's storytime/craft time again. Carson had a blast. He was all about dogs today and got a dog painted on his hand, and got a dog balloon.

It got a little smudged before we got home!

Carson walking his dog.

Here are some random picture for the grandparents (and anyone else who wants to see them):

Aunt Briana gave Carson this dinosaur when he was about 6 months old. Hailey LOVES it:

We tried to get a cute Hawaiian shot of Hailey, but this is as close as we got.

"I will be taking this off now!"

Nothing beats taking a little nap on the couch....in your pullup!

Cheesecake is the winner!

The votes are in and CHEESECAKE is the winner! Hooray, I do love cheesecake. Did you know in Tawain they eat it for breakfast? Man, I need to move! Ice Cream Sundae came in second with rootbeer float, and browines to follow....no one voted for pie. Be sure to vote on the new poll of your favorite fast food resturant.

All in all....a pretty good day!

Today was much better than our "duct tape to the wall" yesterday. We had a fun filled day and I thought I'd share it with you so you don't think I'm a wicked mom who really uses duct tape! The day started bright and early around 6:15 or so. Carson got to say hi to daddy before he left for work. Hooray! How Carson and Hailey love their daddy. We sang songs, and read some books, then playgroup was at our house today. Carson loves playing with Luke! Carson was sad Bella was sick because he wanted Ally to come too! The kids are so cute running around together! Then we headed to the Wendy's in Kingwood for their Story Time. It was pretty cool. I had heard about it from Kingwood Yard Sales online, and convinced Erin and Luke to come and check it out with us. It went pretty well. It starts off with face/hand painting, then they do a craft, then it's storytime (kids get free frosties...and the parents too!), and finally it's balloon animals. Carson had a few out of control moments, but for the most part did pretty well. Hailey loved it too. After that we came home and Hailey took a nap while Carson watched part of Tarzan for quiet time. Daddy got home from work and we went running. We ran a little over 3 miles today. Over 4 miles if you include the warm-up and cool-down. After sweating about 6 buckets of water we came back ate dinner, bathed the kids and now I'm enjoying a little free time to myself while Bridger catches up on a little work. Enjoy the photos! Hope you all had a great day too!

Carson wanted Elmo painted on his hand.

Carson got a Balloon Sword (he kept holding the wrong end, but oh well...he had a blast with it)

Hailey being ADORABLE...like always.

Yes...that is Carson climbing the entertainment center in the back.

These are some photos from the other day. We got these stickers in the mail trying to get us to buy something. Carson put them all on his shirt. He was pretty pleased with himself.

Then he put them in a circle on Daddy's shirt!

Oh course Hailey wanted in on the camera action!
