Fall Festival





Well, It's officially Fall now and North Texas has so much to offer. It seems like every day this past week Jocelyn has come home with a flier announcing an upcoming event. The best part is that they are mostly free. Just Yesterday we attended a Fall Festival at a local home for children. They had about 20 acres and provided the public with free tours of Fire engines, fighter plane cockpits, fancy Peterbilt semis, a petting zoo, hay rides, face painting, and balloon characters, there was also a bounce house, a pumpkin patch and lots of crafts. We went and were very glad we did, the kids had a blast and did a lot of activities. I think they liked the bounce house the best. Although Jocelyn and Beckton had a lot of fun getting their faces painted (Jocelyn and butterfly and Beckton a sun) and decorating their pumpkins. They were sad when Beckton's balloon sword popped in the grass, and Jocelyn's balloon doggy barely made it home. Jocelyn made a really cute bracelet too. It was really hot, being fall, but that's Texas for ya. Next week the city is putting on a festival.

Snackie had a good time too. Though he's terrified of getting his face painted...I don't get it. But yeah, it is toooooo darn hot for fall...Texas makes me crazy sometimes!
