Fair, Pumpkin Patch & a sad attempt to get a cute picture.

Here are some more fun pics.


Jessica here's the unfortunate best shot I got of all
three girls in the outfits. They looked adorable though.
I'm going to try again.

I'm back!!!

Yea!!!! I got my new camera cord in the mail today and guess what it worked!!! I was so excited b/c I thought it might not solve our problem. So I have a lot of new pictures to post. Most likely I'll just post a few at a time so I can tell you a little about them too.


Here are my little princesses at the pumpkin
patch last weekend for a birthday party.
They have on their costumes over their clothes.



This was the first evening that it was cool here in TX
so the girls and I put on long sleeves and played on the swing set.
Here's a cute pic of all 3 swinging.


This is my masterpiece. It took me like 3 hours to carve
these pumpkins. It was my first time to carve a pumpkin
without actually cutting holes. If you can't tell it is
Cinderella & Aurora (Sleeping Beauty).

Horse Ride


Several weekends ago we went to a place called Christ's Haven. It is such a neat place. It is a home for kids without a home. They have several houses on the campus and have the kids in houses according to age and gender. Dustin has a couple of students from school who live here. They had an open house and invited teachers of the students and other people in the community. It was a fun morning for us. They have horses and a stable. The girls were able to ride on a horse together. They looked so cute. I was so sad that I didn't have my camera. Dustin took a pic with his camera phone. The quality isn't great, but I still wanted to share it with everyone. They're getting so big. I have been interested in foster care for a long time and I thought this was an amazing place helping these kids. I hope that when the girls grow up that we might be able to be foster parents. I'll probably have to talk Dustin into it, but I think it would be such a neat ministry opportunity.

Since I haven't been able to post pictures recently I have several random pictures.

Here's a pic before our date night recently.

Poll

Well the camera cord is still messed up and I'm going to Walmart tomorrow to get the pictures on a disk. I have lots of pics to post, but today I have a question I would like to ask those of you who are parents of little ones. Cameron & Taylor will be 4 in Nov. We're typically a very scheduled family. Now that the girlies are getting a little older not quite as strict, although we're buckling down on Peyton now. We have breakfast daily around 8, then snack around 10-10:30, lunch @ noon, snack around 3 and dinner between 5:30-6. Anyways my question is about snacks. Our girls on most days have a mid morning snack & a mid afternoon snack. I'm wondering if we need to cut out a snack. It seems like most things you read say that you should eat less and more often. So should we stick with snacks or should we cut out a snack? I'm curious to know what other people are doing.
