State Fair of Texas

A couple Monday's ago, Garrison and I went to the state fair with my brother, sister, friend Jennifer and her daughter Camdyn. We had a blast!! We got there early afternoon and stayed until the fair closed. Of course, we stuffed ourselves with fried food...between the 4 adults we shared fried frito pie, fried margarita, fried beer, fried smores, fried moon pie, corn dogs, and nachos :) Haha..seriously I may of gained ten pounds!! We saw a dog show, bird show, and many other exhibits. Garrison loved running around. I took his stroller and I think he rode in it for a total of ten minutes. This child has energy! Garrison rode his first carnival type rides and loved it. He wanted to ride more rides but he was too little for most of them. He was not happy about this at all. I'm sure next year he will be able to enjoy more of them. We had a blast!!

Adam's 30th Birthday

I wanted to surprise Adam with a fun 30th birthday and really thought long and hard about what we should do. I finally came up with the idea of chartering a bus that would drive us and our friends to Shreveport for the day.

 Pretty cool, huh?! We had so much fun. There were about 22 of us on board. We left our house at 11am and left the casino at 11pm. It's about a 3 hour trip. We have some really entertaining friends and had a great time. Thank you to all our friends that helped me surprise Adam and joined in on our great fun!

Stories from last night

1) Garrison and I were eating dinner last night and right before he eats, he clasped his hands together and prayed "Tank um for my food." Without me having to remind him that we needed to pray! He is really starting to learn good things!

2) About midway through dinner, Garrison said he wanted to go outside and play. I knew it would be too dark by the time dinner was finished and we were cleaned up, so I told Garrison this. Here is our conversation:

L: It will be too dark by then baby, we will have to go outside tomorrow.
G: It's too dark now?
L: No, it's not right now, but the moon is about to come out and we won't be able to play outside.
G: The moon come out? Mama have mote control?
L: (laughing) I don't have a remote control to the moon Garrison, we will have to wait until tomorrow when the sun comes out.

aaahhh if only I did have a remote control to the world and could control night and day!!!
