Pumpkin Patch Pics... 2009

Me and My Gang.....Pumpkin Patch 2009


This year we took some friends with us out to Hall's Pumpkin Farm.

My kiddos and Karson and Cameron....and one old tractor!

I tried to lock them in there but it didn't work....darn it! :)

Isn't that the cutest little scarecrow you ever saw?

My girls getting their workout on by lifting the big ol' pumpkins.

The Amandas.....aka "Mom Picture" :)

Look at Trinity posing....what am I going to do with that girl! :)

And the boys....being destructive as usual.

We finally had a day without rain so we were able to go visit the pumpkin patch. It was beautiful outside!!! The kids had a good time and of course us moms got us some good pictures! Happy Fall everyone!!

Go Blue Jays!

Logan working on his game face before we headed to the football game.....I must say I am pretty darn proud!

Logan and his buddy Cameron getting ready to play the Yankees.

Big hit #10....he sure does love this game!!!

Playing a little catcher......

I absolutely love watching my kids play sports. Logan is very intense and loves baseball but today at one point he told Coach John he didn't feel like playing. After coach made him take 2 laps around the field, I got a hold of him. I don't think we will be having that problem anymore! No laziness alllowed! :) Sorry...it's the coach in me....and athlete...can I still consider myself an athlete? :)

Saints Upset the Trojans in OT

Our Varsity Football team has been plaqued with injuries and some other setbacks but that didn't stop them from upsetting the Trinity Valley Trojans last Friday night. It has been a long time since I have seen a team play with that much heart and determination. The game was tied at 21 all at the end of regulation. OT began with TVS getting the ball at the 25. Our tenacious defense held off the Trojans and they had to settle for a field goal. Our guys got their chance next and it was all over for TVS. The Saints scored a touchdown and the entire student body ran onto the field....how can people not like sports! :)

Coach Beck congratulating his team on their efforts and saying a little post-game prayer.

Senior Saints.....and.....

Coach Beck's future....so we may need to work on their game faces...we got a few years :)
GO SAINTS!

The Watts Hit the Ice

Trinity and I getting ready to hit the ice skating rink. It was nice and chilly on Saturday to get us in the mood. :) Logan's buddy, Devin turned 7 so we went to his party to celebrate!

I got a kick out of watching my athletic son hold on to me with a death grip! His little legs were going all over the place! (thanks John for the pics :)

Kansas got out there and skated like she had done it before.

Trinity was like Bambi....she was all over the place. She spent more time on her butt then on her skates! But doesn't she look adorable! :)

Me and my little man....not sure what is going on with his smile!

Gene wouldn't get on the ice cause he said he "has had enough surgeries already"...fair enough! :) He took care of picture taking and helping with skates. We had a lot of fun ice skating and thought we would head to a pumpkin patch yesterday but since we keep having rain, it was closed. I am definitely ready for some pretty, fall weather!! Y'all stay dry out there!

Making Memories at the Mavericks Game

Last night we were able to go to the Mavericks game thanks to some friends of ours giving us their awesome tickets! Gene and I took Logan and his buddy, Cameron along for the fun. The girls stayed with our BFF neighbors which they were excited about! Logan and Cam thought the Mavericks truck was pretty cool.

The garbage disposals as Gene called them....these boys can eat!! After they each had their own nachos, we bought them peanuts and the feast didn't end there.....

Our seats were great....I was surprised how much the boys really got into the game. Unfortunately the Mavericks didn't pull off the win against the Magic...maybe next time boys!

Me and my MVP...
Our friends called us and were in their box so we were able to go watch the game from there as well! When we told the boys we were going to a box, they literally thought we were going to sit in a box as in cardboard....pretty funny! They were very excited when we got there and they saw the spread of food.....little piggies!

Logan getting a little daddy time....

Gettin' a little rowdy....and hoping Mavs Man would shoot them over a t-shirt!

I don't think we were off the parking lot when I looked back to find this. How sweet are these two little guys. The Mavericks may have lost but we sure had a great time building memories. Have a great week!

A Day With My Team

Today I took my team to do some community service. They sold raffle tickets to help raise money for the YWCA. It was a champagne brunch and all the people that attended (mostly women) kept telling me how sweet and cute my team was. I was one proud momma coach...haha!

It was held at the Fort Worth Convention Center and only in Texas would you see a big iron star with cowboy hats all over it....can I get a YEEHAW!!!! My friend who now lives in California with her country accent calls Texas, "The Great Nation". :) I am very proud of my state but I would love to live in California as well!!

I promised my team I would take them to the infamous Fuzzy's Taco Shop. It is on the campus of TCU. They thought it would be funny to lock me outside.....don't worry...I will get the last laugh!! :)

After Fuzzy's they sweet-talked me in to taking them to Marble Slab.....guess they didn't want to make it back to 4th period....surprise surprise. You know me...you mention something sweet and I'm all about it! So of course we get there and there is only one lady working. No problem....Brooke used to work there so she hopped behind the counter and helped serve her team. We finally made it back to campus....after I tricked half of the girls into "smelling their ice cream"...hello...that is the oldest trick in the book....suckers! Told you I would get the last laugh! Have a great weekend everyone!

Sweet Trinity

Trinity received her 3rd Character Award today. She got 2 when she was in Kindergarten. I am so proud of her!! I wish my camera was fixed so I didn't have to take pictures with my phone! As you can see, the quality is not so great. I must say...I feel a little lost without it. :)

The week is almost over yet we still have a lot going on ....2 counter games for me on Friday and Saturday......Logan's baseball game.....a birthday party ...my hair appt (yay! :)) ...Booster Club Clay Shoot.....and Logan gets to go with the Fuente's to TCU football practice. Phew....that's a busy next couple of days. Now I'm really sad that I don't have my camera...ugh!!

I hope everyone is having a great week. It is finally October and Christmas will be here before we know it....crazy huh. Enjoy the cooler temps and have a great weekend!!
