More Dinosaurs

Saturday, November 7, 2009

We went to the Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary. They have a special exhibit called

"Dinosaurs Alive!" There are 9 life-size animatronic dinosaurs along a nature trail. It was pretty cool and so exciting for Connor. They moved and made noise...some were quite loud. It was fun. They even got to play on T.Rex and check out his teeth. Connor was quick to point out that he was "just pretend". Not sure if he was telling himself or making sure Dylan knew. It was a fun family outing & a beautiful day for it.

Trick-or-Treat

Sunday, November 1, 2009

Connor was so excited to eat a chocolate eye ball when we got back home from trick-or-treating.

Opening the chocolate.

So happy with all his fun & yummy treats he got.

And still excited there is more.

And now onto watch the Coug game. Considering the outcome of the game, we are glad we didn't make the trip to San Antonio to go watch. It was painful enough watching them on tv.

Connor was not thrilled about going trick-or-treating. Once all the kids starting coming to our house to trick-or-treat, he was catching onto the idea. Connor was thrilled to run to the door, open it, start handing out candy and telling everyone, "Happy Halloween!". Then, suddenly Connor told us he was ready to go trick-or-treating, so we got the boys dressed, left a bowl of candy outside and were off to visit a few houses in the neighborhood. Connor had so much fun knocking on all the doors, saying, "Trick-or-Treat" and "Thanks" followed by "Happy Halloween". He just might have been the best well-mannered dinosaur ever. We were so proud of him and he had so much fun! Dylan just looked around the entire time and didn't say a peep. Of course, he was cute too.

Only in Texas would you expect to see a tractor pulling a trailer full of trick-or-treaters around a subdivision.

We were so happy to see our subdivision full of people and kids walking around-I think we made a great choice for our new home. And we only ended up with about 3 pieces of candy left...this is the most trick-or-treaters we have ever had! Yah! I love handing out candy and apparently Connor got that gene from me. It was a wonderful Halloween in our new home.

Hope everyone had a fun-filled Halloween!

Happy Halloween!

They sure are the cutest little dinos ever. Connor is a BIG dino & Dylan is a baby dino in an egg!

Dylan in his cute little dino egg costume.

Just a tiny bit of a forced smile :) LOL

Dylan's first Halloween! He just wants more food!

Look at these pumpkins!

Oh this is fun!

Connor did an excellent job picking out the pumpkins.

Connor was already to help carve, but said they were too smelly. We carved one & decorated one.

The boys were not thrilled with putting on their dino costumes this afternoon. We are just hoping to have happy boys this evening so we can do a bit of trick or treating around the neighborhood. Maybe we can even get some better pictures of the boys in costume. If not, oh well. Just know that I tried :)

Happy Halloween!
