Happy Halloween!

This is the first year we have "officially" taken Katelyn trick or treating, so it was quite fun! Only now I'm a little worried that she will start knocking on random doors any day of the week and expect to get candy. Joined by our sweet friends, Kyle, Jill, and Brodie Scott, we walked up to the neighborhood fall carnival at the park and then trick or treated our merry way home! Here are some pictures of the fun:

Patiently waiting for Brodie to arrive

We're ready! Let's get this party started!

Back home...Katelyn out of her costume and enjoying Brodie's!

A Trip to Dallas Heritage Village

A few weeks ago, Katelyn and I went with my sister and my good friend Rose to visit the Dallas Heritage Village, a unique museum just south of downtown Dallas dedicated to preserving and teaching the history of Dallas and North Central Texas. Every third Sunday from 12-4, you can get in FREE! Go see for yourself! Here are some pictures of our visit:

At the train depot

Watching lady spin wool--funny story about this picture...

Lady: I'm spinning this wool to make a hat and mittens.

Me: Oh, Katelyn! You have a hat and mittens at home!

Lady: (to Katelyn) Who made your hat and mittens?

Katelyn: God did!
