Where the Wild things Are

A Trip to the NC Zoo

Colin's entire school traveled to the NC Zoo in Asheboro on November 5. This annual trip is quite an event but the kids love it. The weather was almost perfect. Colin enjoyed walking around the park with us and few of his friends we saw along the way. Evan certainly had an eyeful. He was amazed at all the animals he could see up close and repeated just about every animal sound over and over and over. Andy and I were exhausted at the end of the day but we had a wonderful time.

October Endings...



It's all about the cake TWO day!


He loves Elmo so an Elmo cake it was!
Evan is 2!!!!!! We can hardly believe how fast the time has flown by. He is "fast and fearless" as his shirt depicts in the picture below. He is ALL boy in every sense but he has such a sweet spirited nature that is precious. Many nights recently before I lay him in his crib he will put his head on my shoulder and nestles next to my cheek for just a bit. It just about brings tears to my eyes. He goes non-stop all day but he will pause for a minute to love on mommy....I will take that brief moment any day!!!!!



HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

"Disguise" is the limit

Little and Big Batman were on the prowl this year. We went to the Town of Stanfield's first Trick or Trunk followed by our annual Trick or Treating adventure in the Willow Creek neighborhood. We sure caught up with a lot of ghosts and goblins that evening. Colin had a blast and Evan certainly enjoyed himself. I think he ate at least 4 lollipops before the night was over.
