Fall Break 2011

Our Fall Break this year was not at all what I had envisioned, but it couldn't have been any more perfect!! I originally wanted to take the boys to the Zoo, the Adventure Science Center, and some other fun activities, but due to my injured foot and Brody having a little fever on Tuesday, we ended up spending all week at home. It was wonderful!! We played games, painted, colored, tie dyed T-shirts for the first time, decorated our front door for Halloween, watched movies, and cuddled a lot!!! It was a great break to our hectic daily schedules!

On Thursday night, we met the Richardsons for dinner and bowling. I was happy to do something special and fun as a family with some great friends!

On Saturday, we decided to take a road trip to visit some family in Cookeville. Randy and Myra invited us to come watch their youngest, Cole, in the Junior Rodeo. Brody and Colby loved it!! They rode a pony, rode a plastic bull, practiced roping, and even raced in a stick horse race. When the rodeo was over, we went to Randy and Myra's house for a delicious dinner and lots of fun! The boys rode the pony again, fed a bottle to a calf, and drove 4-wheelers. The 4-wheeler was definitely Brody's favorite part of the day. I am so happy we were able to do something new, fun, and memorable!! It was a great day!!
