Spider Man vs. Tinkerbell

So it that time again where we dress up and head out to a Halloween Party. This year we ended up going to Rick's Cousins house Kim so the kids could do a hayride and play games. They had a blast - eventhough Aubrey didn't go on the hayride she said it was too scary. Here are a few pics of the evening.

Noah's Ark

Today the kids had a preschool musical of Noah's Ark. It was very adorable to see all the kids dressed up as animals. Aubrey was dressed as a butterfly and sang "The Caterpillar Song" . She is definitely not shy she was singing her heart out above the crowd. The teachers dressed her in the biggest butterfly wings I think they could find. She was too cute.



Matthew's class was dressed as teddy bears they were all so adorable. They sang "Teddy Bear Teddy Bear". He was a good preformer too. He had more songs that he sang with the rest of the classes. He really enjoyed it.







After the program Memaw and I went to the kids classes in hopes to get some better pictures of Aubrey in her wings, but they had already changed her back. Oh well. I did get some pictures of Matthew in his class.



I will post some videos of the kids preforming thier songs later. Have to work late tonight but hopefully will be able to post them this weekend.

Rocky Creek Maze

This past weekend we took a short drive to Moulton, Texas. It's about an hour away which isn't that bad, the kids just kept asking all the way there are we at the Surprise place yet? My friend Debra from nursing school came with us along with her children Lauren and Alex.



The surprise place is called Rocky Creek Maze - they have few things to do there. The kids really enjoyed it. They have a hay slide, train barrel ride, duck races, and a corn maze.

Here is the web address if you want to take a look. www.RockyCreekMaze.com





the above pictues are of the hay slide the kids had the best time on this we probably spent an hour just on the hay slide.
This setup they had pumpkins for sale, we didn't get any but too cute not to take pictures with the scarecrow. The following picture is a cute cut out of some animals in a corn field dad didn't get the whole picture of them but you get the jist of it. It says We're lost at Rocky Creek Maze.
Here is a picture of the kids on the train barrel ride. A good use for the John Deer riding lawn mower. Here we are in the corn maze getting lost.


Picture of all of us in the middle of the corn maze we are looking for clue # 3. There were a total of 10 clues. We did the first 5 and the kids were hot and tired and wanted out of the maze.
Here is a picture of the maze that we went through.


At the above picture Matthew and Aubrey are playing with the duck races. When the wind hit all the water blew back on to them. Aubrey was totally soaked after playing. But they had fun.

This is a video of Aubrey and I going down the hay slide. She wouldn't go down by herself so Mom to the Rescue.

I loaded more videos last night but I don't know where they went. Will have to load on Thursday night since I work till 10pm tonight. There was one of the kids milking a cow (fake of course), one of Matthew going down the slide and the last one was of the train ride.
