Halloween party at school

Rory's preschool celebrated Halloween today. They had a parade and a carnival. Sammy and I went to the carnival with her. They had little games for the kids to play and they got prizes and candy. She had a lot of fun and loved being Sleeping Beauty. She kept saying, "I like my dress." She even wanted to wear her tiara. I thought for sure it would be lost or she would be annoyed by it, but I guess she wanted to make sure she was a true princess.

Ava and Rory

My best friend from 7th grade and on, Gretchen, has a little girl Ava who is about 4 months older than Rory. They live in New Braunfels and so throughout their lives we have gone back and forth to each others' houses and have met in between to visit. Some of the visits have consistented of lunch and walking around Walmart. Exciting....really for us it was! Gretchen discovered a Burger King in Buda-which is halfway-with a indoor playground. It's wonderful!! They girls haven't seen each other since July, and met each other with a hug. Gretchen and I had probably the best visit we have ever had with the girls while they ran around the play area, more entertained by the "wet floor" sign and the poles than the playscape. I think we have found our new meeting place....if only Burger King served alcohol!!!

Bogey her best friend

Tonight we went to Best Buy and then ate dinner at Craig Os. Before we went to Craig Os we went into Petland and looked at all the animals. They had a lot of really cute puppies, birds, rabbits, and these gerbel/rat things. Rory of course loved the rat things and I could see Sammy's wheels turning contemplating getting her one. When we came home Rory greeted Bogey and started telling him all we did..."we ate dinner, and saw the animals..." it was really cute!!

Hook 'em Horns

I see you....

Here is the new toy Daddy bought for Rory. A "my-fying glass." And an example of what a great/tolerant dog we have!!
