Our Weekend

We decided to take advantage of "Dollar Days" at the Dallas Arboretum (all of August) and took the kids Saturday morning. The weather has finally cooled off JUST enough to not be miserable outside (thank goodness). We had a great time and Chris quite enjoyed getting new flower and shrub ideas.





Then that afternoon we all headed over to Denton for the North Texas Fair with cousins. Gavin loved petting the goat, baby deer, and calf, which didn't surprise me. But what DID surprise me was that for the 2 entire hours that we watched the bull riding at the Rodeo, he never moved! THIS coming from the boy who couldn't even sit still or stop screaming while we ate dinner at Quizno's right before (so I had to sit in the car and eat my dinner while he screamed in his carseat). And THIS coming from the boy who just today learned how to climb out of his crib and who I have found in Carter's room playing twice (still with no nap - I think my days just got even busier). Anyway, he was fascinated with the "EIEIO" animals as he always is. I think I need to let him play at Kim's more often. Thanks Angela, for letting me steal your pics!
