Luna Turkey Trot 2009!

I went out to volunteer at this year's Turkey Trot at Sydney's school. It was so cold, I didn't know if I would survive the frigid temperatures while manning my post. Sydney's class got to do the "trot" around 8:30. I was anxiously awaiting to see my little munchkin come around the corner. When she realized I was standing there, she got all excited. It made me very happy. I am glad that I can be with her for the little moments that are special in her life.











This was her second time going around the course and as you can tell by now she was a little wired up being a tad silly.



Time to head back inside. 'Til next year turkey trotters!

Tom Thumb Texas Stampede Championship Rodeo Presents Pat Green!

I went out to the American Airlines Center to watch one of my all time favorite artist, Pat Green.

His concert was part of a yearly 3-day rodeo weekend put on by Tom Thumb. I got there early enough to get to watch some of the rodeo.

That finally ended and on to the part for which I came, the concert. As always, Pat Green was awesome. Unfortunately I didn't do my checklist this time around which never happens and didn't have my camera fully charged so I wasn't able to take my hundreds of pictures.

Either way, here are the few I did take.

Trick o Treat.....Halloween 2009!

We decided to take the kids out trick o treating to a neighborhood close to the house. It is really nice and the houses almost look like mansions so we figured they'd be giving out great candy.

The bad economy apparently has even hit the owner's of these houses as not very many were out greeting trick o treaters but the ones that did participate where fun - the kids definitely had a good time. Here are some of the pictures I took of our fun-filled night.



This was our jack-o-lantern for Halloween. Frank went online and got this idea...turned out pretty cool.



Daddy and Sydney the pirate!!! Arrrgghhh!



Me & my beautiful angel!!!



Sydney going towards the door of the Sra. Adriana's house...they too, came along trick o treating.



Sydney all prepared.



Aaarrgghh!!



Adrian, Andrea & Sydney all ready to go!



Dathan & Tyler as killer surgeons!



The trick-o-treaters...if you will see, Adrian was not having any part of this picture...he was mortified of Dathan & Tyler's costumes.



First house they hit up for candy.



Sydney looked happy. Could she have gotten something in her basket she liked?



This decoration was outside one of the houses.



These trick-o-treaters sure did have a lot of energy.



Another house with great decorations...had to snap a picture and take a brief break.



I really liked these decorations.



Last picture for the night.
