So, the Longhorns really mussed it up big time for the OU game. Yuk! We are rebounding from the game and hubby has pretty much written them off for the next two seasons.

I've had a bit of time to reflect on our activities from last month up to now and it's more than I had thought it was. We've been so sick for so long that it really didn't seem like we'd done much of anything. So, in this post I'll post one photo from each playdate we've had recently. Here we go...

Our back to school neighborhood playdate. I made these stickers and put them on mini M&M packs.

The arboretum has their huge pumpkin patch open. We had a picnic.

My attempt at getting 2 kids in 1 photo.

Getting friendly at a hot air balloon festival.

We went to the international airport to an outdoors plaza to watch the incoming planes. VERY cool!

A make your own ice cream playdate. Yes, another one!

We were invited to a local high school football game. Dominic loved the noise and we stayed for the halftime show.

We checked out the zoo.

Did the Oktoberfest thing...

Visited the state fair.

And started soccer lessons!!!

All of these activities was with friends and/or playgroups. Pretty busy despite pneumonia, huh??

Hook Em' Horns!!!

Today is the big Red River rivalry and we are all sporting our burnt orange while Dad is at the game. Let's hope the horns win, otherwise it's going to be a long night. Dad tends to let the outcome of the game determine his mood.

We've been dealing with some illness this month, hence the long absence from posting. I've been trying to get over pneumonia, then hubby got it and then I got sick again! Now Dominic has a stuffy nose and I'm praying it's just a cold and not anything worse. We can't handle much more!

Needless to say, we haven't been out much due to our lock-down.

Halloween is just a few weeks away and we've got Jillian's owl costume ready to go. I found it at a consignment sale for $10!! Score!
Dominic wants to be a spooky ghost. I'm racking my brain trying to figure out how to make a costume without having to have a sheet draped over his head. Most of the ghost costumes for kids are rather girly in nature.

This is undoubtedly the most boring post I've EVER posted. I apologize. My brain is not quite all the way awake and I just wanted to post while I had Jillian napping.
