Neil's OfficeNeil's Office was not too much work... Dining Room and Entry HallThis room was mostly just in need of paint and glaze... But here are some before and after shots. :) We ate our first meal here last night with some friends from Baylor that live in Southlake. It was fun House PicturesOur first Christmas in Southlake Town SquareOn Saturday, we met some good friends for what is most liekly our first of many Christmas Tree Lighting Festivals in Southlake town square. It was VERY neat. They had tons of carolers, carriage rides, Santa, crafts for kids, and tons more. The cooest thing was when they "plugged" in all the lights. The ENTIRE square was glowing. It was gorgeous. It really got us all in the Christmas spirit. We enjoyed hanging out with Greg and Angela and their cute kids too. Greg and Neil work together at Microsoft and we all moved to Southlake in the past year. They are really fun and Angela and I have a lot in common. We are so glad that we have become friends and look forward to many more Christmas Tree Lightings with them Ice Cream with GraceWe have the best neighbors! one evening, we took our sweet neighbor with us to dinner and dessert. Grace is 7 and she and Greyson have become great friends. She has a little brother that is one week younger than Grant. Grant and Luke are big buddies too... Here are some cute shots of the boys and our wonderful new friends and neighbors.... I did not mention them but Grace and Luke have AWESOME parents too. More to come Star Wars Fans... This is your Paradise!There is this man that lives close by that has this AMAZING collection of all things Star Wars.He has even built his own buildings to house this stuff. He does not open it to the public but he decided to help the city of Southlake raise money for a project they are trying to build. He sold only 200 tickets to see his stuff. It was pretty pricey so I decided to sit this one out. :) Neil took the boys and they were all truly in awe of what they saw! There were characters walking around in original costumes and authenic pieces from the movies everywhere. Neil said it was seriously impressive. The boys loved it and Neil was just happy that they did not touch anything! It was a neat afternoon for all my boys and it was a nice way to donate to a good cause! 11月3日 Storybook Character Day at Old UnionWe were able to use our Harry Potter costume for the storybook character day too! Grey presented a report on Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. He did a good job. The parade of the whole school was really neat. I loved that in this day of political correctness, the school found an educational way to let the kids wear their costumes! Here are a few pictures of Grey and his friends. Our neighbor, Grace, made a super cute witch!
Trick or Treat, Now Let's Party!Since becoming a Mommy, I have had these visions of what I wanted our neighborhood to be like on Halloween. We finally found it! Our neighborhood was in the spirit on Halloween night. We loved it! The boys loved trick or treating and getting candy. The highlight of the night was our Halloween block party. It was SO MUCH FUN!! The kids loved the jumpy house and making smores in the fire pit. The adults had a great time too. We played and partied past midnight. I know, we are crazy for letting our kids stay up that late but it was fun! We are feeling like this is home now and we love it. Harry Potter ended up looking like a waiter once he took off his accessories and Cookie Monster ended up in shorts and a t-shirt since it was 80 degrees! But who cares! My parents even dropped by and met our neighbors and hung out for awhile. We hated to see them leave! But even that did not dampen the boys Halloween spirit. Maybe it was their sugar high??
Couldn't resist including the pictures of my neighbor "Joe, the plumber..." and of Grant's best buddy, Luke, passed out from all the fun!
Halloweeen Party at TimarronWe kicked off our Halloween at the Halloween party at the club. It was a lot of fun. They had a kid buffet set up that had everything a kid could ask for on Halloween. Caramel apples, popcorn balls, spider web cupcakes, chicken fingers, french fries, PB and J, you get the picture... Anyway, the boys loved it. They had some games set up for the kids and the big event was the costume contest. Guess who won "Best Costume"????? Harry Potter! I mean Greyson. He was so excited! He did look exactly like him. Grant looked adorable as cookie monster too. It was a fun night and a good warm up for the big night on Friday! FUNdraising |
