Oma and Opa came into town this past weekend for my birthday. We took the boys to Dewberry Farms on Friday for a birthday party and then Chip and I went to the boy's school that night for their annual auction/fundraiser.
Aden loves to read!! Rainey loves puzzles!!

We went to the Renaissance Festival again this year. We lasted 5 hours!!! The boys did great and we had a wonderful time!! Wurstfest in New Braunsfel is next in November.
Watching the leaves fall out of the tree!
Just chillin'
Look closely and you will see a hawk flying towards the camera (great shot by Chip)
First pic we took when we got there...he's okay now :)
Last weekend, we took the boys to George Ranch Historical Park. It was neat! Of course, they are too young to enjoy touring the homes, so we watched the cowboys and took the tram around the property.
The boys' preschool had Doughnuts with Dad. Chip said Rainey ate about a dozen donut holes and drank orange juice from a big boy cup. Aden ate about six donut holes. I was so glad they were in preschool that day with their "sugar high". Thank you Ms. Nita and Ms. Gaby! (The pic is off the school website and not able to make it any larger without distorting it.)
Since the weather has been a lot cooler, we've been able to take the boys with us in the jogging stroller and on bike rides. On this particular day, we rode our bikes to Baskin Robbins for a treat.
Both Rainey and Aden have started Mother's Day Out on Mondays and Wednesdays. They have gone for two weeks now. From day one, Rainey walked into his classroom and didn't even say good-bye to me. Aden, on the other hand, clings onto me and cries. His teachers told me after a few minutes, he is okay. He is sitting in a big boy chair for lunch and holding hands with his classmates while walking outside to play. It is amazing how much he can do at such a young age! Definitely helps to have an other brother.

Welcome to the exciting adventures of our family. We have two awesome boys, Rainey and Aden, and a loving lab named Gunner. We hope you enjoy this site!
