Meerkats!

The highlight of our last trip to the zoo - they're still Max's favorite!
The picture below is one of the very few times where I've thought Calvin and Miles actually look kind of alike. Is this how they look to everyone else all the time?

Halloween Highlights

We had an awesome, pumpkin filled October!!
Our visit to the Blaise Family Farm was my favorite pumpkin patch - it was so calm and full of neat activities for the boys. Their favorite was feeding the animals, but they also liked the scavenger hunt, reading Halloween books, and the hayride.
We visited the Flower Mound Pumpkin Patch with my grandparents, Aunt Karen, and the rest of the Texas Beckels. The boys had a blast, but I was on high alert the entire time - it was SO crowded!!
Decorating pumpkins at the STAMA Halloween Party - Calvin's always ready for a craft.
Showing off their candy at the Holy Cross Trunk or Treat - YUM!
The boys loved helping Daddy carve our Jack-o-Lantern.
Heading home after a fun and VERY successful night of trick or treating.
And... to finish out the Halloween season, Mema and Pepa enjoyed an afternoon with us at the Yesterland Farm.
