Thanksgiving 2012

This year, we traveled to Atlanta for Thanksgiving.  We spent the night at Oma and Opa's to break up the drive, and stopped in Auburn to shop. 

We had an AWESOME time!  It was so great to see everyone.  We only wish everyone lived closer so we could visit more.

I will post a few of my favorite pictures below from the week.  I will also post a link to see all of our pictures!!

 

That's a whole bunch of kiddos...Bella, Aden, Baby Zac and Rainey

Rainey's first field trip

Every year, I take the boys to Dewberry Farms.  This year, Rainey's 4 yr old preschool class also took a field trip there.  It was much fun watching him interact with this classmates.

Hay ride to pumpkin patch

Best buds....Walker, Kayden and Rainey

Rainey was so excited to get the first car, but afterwards, he said he breathed fumes the whole time.

 

Duck races

 

Wurstfest

We took the boys to Wurstfest in New Braunsfel.  They boys had a great time!  We could have stayed all night!!!

Halloween

The boys loves our new cat!!  On the far left, you can see a broom and a witch buried in the yard.  It took several days for Aden to realize this was just a decoration and a real witch was not buried there.  It didn't help that Chip told him she was coming to get her cat and crashed into the yard...hahahaha

Our pumpkins

 

Aden - Optimus Prime Transformer. 

Rainey - Mario in drag.

 

We dressed up for Howl-o-ween and the whole family (including Heidi) went to the festival.  It was a great time!

Later that night, we went to a Halloween party where Rainey bobbed for apples.

 

Our friend's cute lion.

One rides, one runs

Rainey loves to ride his bike on our street.  Aden, on the other hand, will not touch his bike.  He tells us he's a runner...he likes to run and he runs fast!  Here he is running on the sidewalk chasing Rainey.

 

Look at that face!

Dewberry Farms

Every year, we go to Dewberry Farms.  This visit was with my Moms' Group.  Next week, Rainey is going on his first school field trip and we get to go back to Dewberry Farms.  He is going to be so excited!
