Fright Fest Kickoff & JC's 6th Birthday Party!!!

Once again I am playing catch up... we are just getting in from our quick trip to NYC but since I have a ton of other things to blog about I can't begin with our trip just yet.

First I will touch base on a little from the beginning of the month.

Our area put on a huge support the Police event that we went out to and got ribbons and bracelets and such.  So we went out there to show our support.  Then Rick and I took the kids to Fright Fest at Six Flags.  We have dare devil kiddos.  They ride anything that they are tall enough to ride.  We were so lucky that weekend.  It was opening day of Fright Fest and they're were no lines.  We walked right on to the texas giant TWICE!  

On Oct 5 My sweet little JC celebrated his 6th birthday!!! I can not even believe it still!  I say that every time any of my kids celebrate a birthday.  It just seems to fly by faster and faster.  He and 3 of his closest little friends and of course his family went to Chuck E Cheese and had a fun birthday party.  By the end of the day we were all Chuck E'd out!  We had pizza and cake and games and we were ready to go to the casa for some nice rest.  He had a fun time!

BACK TO SCHOOL

Monday was back to school for our kiddos!  We now officially have all 3 in school.

JC started Kinder this year and was so ready.  He has been talking about it for months.  Ricky started 5th grade and went to intermediate, and Eevie went to 8th grade...one more year til High School eeeek! 

We all made it through the first week.  Thank Goodness.  It was a beating with the early mornings & back to the busy-ness of the school year.  

This thing we all call LIFE

Sooooooooooooooooooooooo  I am so far behind on blogging... YA whats new right?!
I have been really busy at work and time has just gotten away from me.
So much has happened in the last few weeks and I am so excited to share!

Rick & I went back to Mexico towards the end of the summer break to de-stress and relax.  It started great and ended not so great.  The kids had a great time with my mom they went to the circus, Legoland and all kinds of fun places(I will upload photos once I figure out how to get downloaded photos to the computer from my phone)!!!  I am so glad that they enjoy hanging out with their grandparents.

The next day after we got back we had tickets to go and see Kevin Hart with my mom in Dallas.  He was so funny, and so was his opening acts.  We had a great time and here are some photos from the night.  We didn't take many because they didn't allow phones or cameras into the show, only during certain time periods.

We went to the zoo on a beautiful day before school started back up.  We have been zoo members for so many years and it just never gets old going and enjoying the day learning about the conservation and care of the animals.  We saw so many babies.  There were baby giraffes out and elephants lion cubs and more.  They were all so adorable!
