Family Trip to Fredericksburg

Last weekend, we took our annual family trip to Fredericksburg, Texas, one of the cutest little historic towns in Texas full of really cute boutiques, wineries, and beautiful historic homes. To me, it is heaven!

Trick or Treat

We’ve been busy having lots of fun around here so I’m a bit behind. I’ll make this post just about Halloween and follow up with everything else we’ve been up to.

Halloween is always close to my birthday so this year, the celebration actually fell on my birthday since it happened to be the Saturday before…October 27th. My entire family came to town to celebrate with me. I scheduled the entire day starting with a private craft party at Paper Source (FUN!), lunch and a little shopping, Trick or Treating with the kiddos at the Hill Country Galleria, and a night out with our special men at Uchiko and downtown with the crazies for Halloween. Our dinner lasted almost 4 hours. Woooo!

For the actual day of Halloween, the girls had a parade at their school and then later on that evening, our neighborhood has Halloween dinner and hayride that we joined in on. The girls had a blast!!

Birthday Festivities started out at Paper Source:

Family Photoshoot Fall 2012

I’m dying over the photographs J. Bell of J. Bell Photography dropped off yesterday. The colors are gorgeous and I’m so proud of how well my girls did! It was really hot the day we shot and they were troopers and had tons of fun. My heart skips a beat when I see Livy and Avery in these pics.

Copying sister:






I LOVE this pic:

And this one makes me laugh because this what they do at home all the time:
