Thomas at the Rodeo 2011

Our visit to the San Antonio Rodeo in 2011.

Thomas learned about farms and growing food.

He learned how to "milk" a cow.

We took our picture together in the petting zoo.

That's better.

Thomas loved the tractors.

His favorite part was the rides. He was (almost) just tall enough to get on.
The ride operators were nice enough to let him on.

He loved how fast the Merry Go Round went.

Next he rode a dinosaur.

Last we all rode the Ferris Wheel.
He wasn't as impressed because it was not going fast enough.

A sign a good time was had by all.

Trick or Treat 2010

Getting ready to go Trick or Treating.

Thomas was a Street.

Our first stop was at NaNa and Grandpa's

Say Cheese!

We went Trick or Treating with our friend Ella. Here they are "testing" the treats.

Our other friend Nadia came over to Trick or Treat as well.

Nadia was Princess Tianna and Ella was Minny Mouse.

Ella's Dad pulled the kids in the wagon.

Getting ready to hit the houses.

Thomas did really well. He walked up to all the houses and would yell, "Trick or Treat!"

If he had remembered to knock first it would have been perfect.

He kept wanting to wander around the yards so I had to try and keep him on the sidewalk.

We went to about 10 houses and Thomas had a great time.

Happy Halloween!!

Happy Birthday, Daddy!

Happy Halloween Birthday, Daddy!

Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday, dear Daddy. Happy Birthday to you.

Blowing out the candles.

Best part of a birthday...eating cake!!!

Mmmmm...when is it my birthday again?

Carving the Pumpkin

We tried but Thomas was not interested in pumpkin carving this year.

Thomas was more interested in using the carving tools to fix his airplanes

Boo!

Still fixing his plane

Picking out our pumpkins

Thomas was more interested in the cars driving by.
